​"My son Shiraz has been coming to HGMAA for about three years now. He joined the dojo to learn self-defense after being bullied at school. When I first signed him up, he had zero self-confidence. Now, three years later, he is a junior instructor holding a Sho Dan Ho belt (black and white, one level below black belt). He has built tremendous confidence in himself, improved his grades, and shown great discipline at home. Thank you, Henry Graves Martial Arts, for being there!"

Hanshi Henry Graves has been a detrimental part of my son’s growth, confidence, humility and discipline. His commitment to the martial arts and his students is displayed in his passion for teaching. He is patient, thorough, and knowledgeable. I appreciate that Hanshi not only teaches martial arts forms but he also focuses on the value and history behind martial arts. My son went from a timid young man to one that’s GREAT AND GETTING BETTER.- Oss

I started taking martial arts lessons as a senior adult three years ago, and it has been life changing. I have advanced six belts, and feel more confident to protect myself if needed. Hanshi Graves is patient, passionate, and committed to teaching all ages the art of martial arts. I highly recommend that you sign up your children or even yourself. It is worth the investment in your kids and yourself.

If you're the parent of a VERY energetic child and you're struggling to find an activity beyond swimming, t-ball, or soccer, this review is for you.We visited a few karate dojos before finding this one, and it was the perfect fit. My son started at 3 years old and definitely couldn't make it through a full one-hour class. (Hanshi Henry Graves never made us feel like he had to.) We started with 30 minutes, then 45 minutes and by age 5 he was happily participating in the entire 1-hour class.The classes are fun and engaging with sparring, games, and activities that keep the kids moving while teaching focus, confidence, and respect. The older students are also amazing role models.What really sets this dojo apart is Hanshi Henry Graves. He truly cares about every child. If your child is struggling at home or school, he's always willing to talk with them and encourage them. That kind of support is hard to find.I've seen an incredible boost in confidence in both of my kids, and we're so grateful we found this dojo. As an added bonus, one parent can train for free when you enroll your child. We can't recommend this place enough!

I have two special needs children and Hanshi Graves does an excellent job teaching them. All of the students there are helpful and like a family unit. Great place to learn discipline!
