We moved to the area from New Jersey more than a year ago and a focus for us was to put our daughters in a martial arts program. After visiting various schools, we were not at all impressed and did not just want to join any school. Then we found Union Martial Arts... what a turnaround. Just speaking with Coach Nolan for 30 minutes on a Saturday afternoon convinced us that this was the school to join. After attending the first class, we were completely sold about the program offered at Union Martial Arts. We highly recommend this school for many reasons. The first being Coach Nolan and Coach Kon are very knowledgeable and clear experts in martial arts. Further, they structure their program to also include key topics that children face daily. Whether the discussion is on commitment, or respecting others, or even bullying, both Coach Nolan and Coach Kon include these discussions in their curriculum. As parents of two young daughters, this is very important. Another strength is the facilities in which they train are impressive/well kept and designed to give each child a solid training environment. Our daughters look forward to each class and they do feel like they are part of the school - something that is important for an extracurricular activity. They enjoy the training and enjoy the discussions held in class. We are impressed with the overall care in the program displayed by Coach Nolan and Coach Kon. We are looking forward to seeing our girls continue to be part of Union Martial Arts. We highly recommend this school to anyone that is serious about finding a solid martial arts program.

Throughout my life I’ve bounced from Martial Arts school to martial arts school but have found a true home here at Union. With Coach Nolan and Coach Kon taking the time in and out of class to help us students independently grow as well as encouraging a supportive community that looks out for each other. From building basic fundamentals for self defense or maybe becoming a competitive fighter this is the place you want to be!

This review is so overdue on my part. My daughter has been coming here for about a year now. More recently I joined and started taking the adult classes. From being incredibly supportive and setting the best example for the kids, Coach Nolan & Kon also make what is a grueling workout for adults, so much fun. I am sore for days after 45 min here. The music is FIRE to the point where the ladies sometimes break out into dance mid-class. It also makes you want to work out 10x as hard! The environment is just good vibes all around and everyone being supportive of each other with no care about skill level, just laser focus and hard work.

Could not be more impressed with this school. Coach Kon and Coach Nolan are both amazing. Very professional and serious while making it so fun for the kids. Our daughter looks forward to it every week, makes sure her uniform is clean, and we have seen a change in her self-discipline already. Can’t speak more highly about it!
