TESTIMONIALS
"When my son started TKO 4 years ago I didn't really know what to expect. I had heard from others that it was a great school for kids to learn self defense, but it didn't take long to see that it was SO much more than just learning how to kick and punch. Yes, they learn how to defend themselves but, first they learn the Student Code: Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self Control, Respect and how to apply that code into their daily lives at school, home or wherever they may be. Nathan, Hannah and the rest of the staff not only help your child learn self defense techniques but will teach them how to become a better student through that code, how to become confident in their ability to do things that most adults can't do. When you walk through those doors you become part of a very tight knit family! I could go on and on about the way that TKO will absolutely help your child because I've seen it countless times in the 4 years that I've been involved with this school, but the best way to see for yourself is to step through those doors and experience it!"

-Randall C.
"My two sons (5 and 12) started TKO's beginner and teen classes just this month. They both love them, but especially my 12 year old. He talks nonstop about kickboxing, shows me things he's learn, and is asking for a punching bag at home to practice. I haven't seen him this interested in anything other than an electronic device in a very long time. Thank you TKO!"

-Kelly C.
"TKO is the change I needed! I am slowly building my endurance back up and Hannah really keeps you going! My 4yr old also takes classes and LOVES every bit of it! Highly recommend to anyone who’s needing a challenge."

"This place is the best place to learn martial arts! Not only do kids learn Maui Thai, but also a code of conduct. This code of conduct is such an important aspect of life and is applied in our home as well. KRU is an excellent teacher that continues to go to Thailand and learn. He employs professionals to teach his classes that uphold his values and techniques. This is the cleanest gym I have ever been to! Ask around town and you will always hear great things about TKO from all the many people that have taken classes through the years."

-April S.
"My son has been a student for over 4 years. He loves this school and all of the instructors. I recommend this school for anyone of any age. Nathan and Hannah are the best at what they do and care about all of the students. Friendly, clean, professional and excellent instruction."

-Amy D.
“The women's kickboxing fit class is fantastic!! Hannah is an awesome instructor, and all of the ladies are so welcoming. They are constantly encouraging you as well as pushing you to do your best in each class. If you are looking for a great full body workout I encourage you to give it a try.”
