Sidekicks Martial Arts

"I've been a student at Sidekicks Martial Arts for many years, and reflecting on my journey, I can't help but express gratitude. As a teen, Mr. Lee served not only as a skilled teacher but also as a wonderful mentor. The guidance and support I received here have truly shaped my martial arts experience, creating lasting memories and valuable lessons. Sidekicks is more than a dojo; it's a place where both skill and character are nurtured, making it a second home for anyone on their martial arts journey."

"My kid goes to Karate past 3yrs and , to be frank, it's a house for her, she feels every person from the instructor Mr.Salinas to all the other team mates very very disciplined, respectful,their everyday pledge says those and so are the kids follow them. Mr.Salinas is an amazing instructor, his National championship makes him deliver all of those skills to the kids at karate, he is certainly the best instructor to learn from. Past 3yrs we never had any issues with anything related to payments or fees structure, 3yrs we get receipts and documents pertaining to payments made perfectly, and at the beginning, they demonstrate the extra fee charges they charge for, they have good celebrations too, which is upto an individual interest by paying the fees, never we had issues with payments or fee structures. My daughter who dint show interest in any of the other classes , showed interest only in this karate and learnt several things like self discipline, self esteem, self protection, she enjoys every moment of the time she is in the class. God bless the center and Mr.Lee and Mr.Salinas for having my child learn so many good things."

"Sidekicks Martial Arts of Little Elm is amazing!! My 12 yo daughter has been going there for 6 years, and absolutely LOVES it!! The instructors are great with all of the students, whether 4 yo or over 40 yo. You can visit and even participate in a class to decide if it’s even for you. From the time you sign up, they are nothing but straight forward about their fees and expectations. You receive a contract stating the term, down payment, monthly payments, and anything else pertaining g to your student’s membership. There are monthly belt tests for those who have reached their belt level goals and are qualified to progress to the next belt level. They must even prove themselves in their behavior at home and performance at school. A testing notice is given at least a week prior to the testing date, which includes the testing fee required and expectations of the student. There really are no surprises. Not all students progress at the same rate. They require a certain level of achievement, and not everyone reaches that level at the same rate. They DO NOT progress students just to get them through the program. It took my daughter 4 years to gain her black, and she’s still going strong!! We LOVE Sidekicks and recommend them every opportunity we get!!"

"My daughter has been at Sidekicks for almost 3 years now. Enrolling her was one of the best decisions we’ve made! Not only is she learning karate, but also stranger danger, self-defense, and leadership skills. Her focus, determination, and confidence have improved greatly since starting classes there. All of the instructors are so great with the kids, and you can tell that they really care and that their top priority is watching them progress and succeed. We are proud to be part of the Sidekicks family!"

"My kids have been at Sidekicks for about 5 years now and they love it! It’s a very family friendly environment where the instructors show the highest level of care for their students, both on and off the floor. The progress that I have witnessed with all of the kids there is amazing. They not only promote greatness on the floor, but also encourage responsibility, respect & perseverance in all other areas of the kids’ lives. Salinas has been the main reason my kids (and others I know) have stuck with the program, encouraging them while also demanding their best effort. The young adults growing into leadership roles are a clear indication of the level of care and support this establishment and its leaders provide. Can’t imagine ever going anywhere else!"
