WE LOVE UNION MARTIAL ARTS!!! Coach Nolan and Coach Kon are AMAZING teachers and the facility itself is AWESOME! My son is in Beginner Kickboxing, and he truly loves it and has grown SO MUCH in his ability to focus, his self-confidence and strength! Watching the classes as a parent, I'm so impressed by how much Coach Nolan and Coach Kon teach the kids - they are learning true martial arts skills, growing their fitness, speed and strength! They teach their students discipline, focus, how to work hard and try their best no matter what! They also bring a fun, focused spirit to each class, which is so important with kids (and with adults too 🙂 ) I would give them 10 starts if I could!!!

Amazing place.karate feels unique and is so much fun to learn.both coach kon and Chris are very kind to everyone and help everyone to achieve success and great achievements in your current and future life. They are well organized and prepared each class and are very well experienced and help each individual to yet someday be experienced like them someday.after moving to union from a diffrent dojo I started to calm myself down and relax more with Chris and kon. They are very chill and with the flow and never rush into anything if it is sparring , jujitsu, or anything that doesn’t fit your needs. This place is definitely recommended and I appreciate everything they have done for me.

There’s not enough words to describe how great the school is! Coach Nolan and Coach Kon go above and beyond with your needs, taking the time to show and teach you the right moves and to motivate you. I am beyond happy that I joined the family, and I say it for sure, I’m in for a long time!
