Ketzal Martial Arts

"This is a place I call home. Ms Eiseman is a wonderful teacher, with so much patience and kindness. She helps each student recognize their potential and do their best! I look forward to going to class and learning a new skill."

"I am an adult starting martial arts at age 50! I am not physically fit and was hesitant that I couldn’t keep up. Mrs. Eisman is so great at adapting and modifying moves for those of us who are older. The dojo is so welcoming and I love that she helps everyone to do their best. I have learned so much and have become more coordinated and confident. I highly recommend the adult program! My daughter (age 10) also attends classes. I have seen her learn so much about respect, diligence, and perseverance (just to name a few) Martial arts has helped her to grow as a person. The character building that is incorporated in the curriculum is a wonderful life skill. It is so much more than self-defense. My daughter also loves the classes!"

"My son and I love Ketzal martial arts!! Mrs Eiseman is the nicest most patient person I have ever met. She coaches the kids and gives them easy to follow instructions. My son has been going there for a month or two now and he is now saying “yes, mam” to me at home. I had no idea that karate would play such a big role in teaching my son what respect means and how he can use it to be successful in life. He even says yes mam to his teachers. I couldn’t be more proud of him!"

"So far, my daughter has only been to one class, but to see improvements after only one class is incredible! I can tell this isn't just about learning self-defense, but also about controlling emotions, responsibility, respect, and so forth. The instructor took her time to get a feel for my daughter's starting place and had so much patience, while at the same time giving clear instructions. Highly recommended! Will update this post in a few weeks with updates."

"My kids are just starting out with this but so far it's been great! Already seeing more disciplined behaviors, and instructor Eisman, also the owner, I believe, is excellent with how she talks to, teaches, corrects and models the motions and poses for the kids. Looking forward to more, and an updated review to follow once we've had more experience with Tang Soo Do at Ketzal! Oh, and not to be forgotten: This was the first time my son set down his video game without upset first; in fact, he was excited about going, and that was only on his second class, so they hadn't even gotten to the good stuff yet!! I attribute this to (yes, the novelty, AND) the neat things they're learning, the opportunity for fun physical movement that channels his energy without getting him into trouble, and the structure and respect woven into each session (Ms. Eisman: [Explanation of challenge]; Yes? Class: Yes, ma'am!). So far it's a highly recommend."
