We Love 360 Karate! Our daughter has fun and learns important life skills. Their Stranger Danger program is the best!
As both an adult and a parent, I can wholeheartedly recommend 360 Family Martial Arts for anyone looking to immerse themselves in martial arts. My daughter, who is 9, and I have been training here for almost 2 years, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. For Adults: 360 Family Martial Arts offers a comprehensive Kenpo Karate program that caters to all levels, whether you're a complete beginner or looking to refine your skills. The instructors are highly skilled, knowledgeable, and passionate about teaching. Their ability to break down complex techniques into manageable steps has been incredibly helpful. The physical fitness and mental discipline I’ve gained from the classes have made a noticeable difference in my overall well-being. The dojo fosters a supportive and inclusive environment where every adult feels welcome and challenged. For Children: The kids' program at 360 Family Martial Arts is equally impressive. My daughter has thrived in this environment, not only improving her martial arts skills but also building confidence, discipline, and respect. The instructors have a natural rapport with children and create a positive and engaging atmosphere that makes learning fun. The structured classes help kids develop focus and perseverance, while the camaraderie and sense of achievement they gain from their progress are invaluable. Overall, 360 Family Martial Arts is a fantastic place for families to train together. The dedication and enthusiasm of the instructors, combined with the well-organized and dynamic classes, make it a standout dojo. Whether you’re looking to enhance your own fitness and skills or provide your child with a meaningful and enriching activity, 360 Family Martial Arts is the perfect choice. Thank you to Sensei Scott, and Sensei Stacey, and the entire team at 360 Family Martial Arts for creating such a wonderful and inspiring environment for both adults and children!
This is a great place to learn Martial Arts, family friendly and at the same time learning a great Art that's practical on the streets. Great teachers, very knowledgeable, and family oriented. I love it there!
My grandson has been attending for 6 months and it has changed his life. Scott and the team are amazing. They care deeply about the kids. Even to the point of setting my grandson straight on the importance of homework at school. This is more than a job for them, this is a mission and a calling.
We thoroughly enjoy it, the owners are conscientious and caring, highly competent, and easy to work with. Great place to learn American Kenpo, self defense, and self discipline in a family friendly environment everyone loves!
My Grandsons attend this school and the staff is amazing with them. I could not ask for a better place or better people to be around. Very knowledgeable and patient.
My son is 3 years old, he’s been taking classes twice a week since the end of august. With fairs and large events approaching this facility takes a special interest in stranger training and abduction prevention. After about 4 weeks of stranger training, my child and I were at target in another town, and a woman helped my son pick up a product that had fallen off the shelf, he quickly put his arms behind his back and stepped back from her, (giving space between him and the woman) he looked at me and said ‘mommy I’m not talking to her, she’s a stranger’. He’s always on the look out for strangers since his training started, but this was real life interaction with a stranger and I feel safe knowing my child can identify a possibly unsafe situation. Scott and Stacey are teaching my child to protect himself if I can not. I recommend everyone with a child to look into classes at 360 martial arts. We have felt like family since the first time we walked through the doors, and I don’t see us ever leaving this dojo.
My 5 year old daughter has been training at 360 FMA for almost 2 years and I could not be happier! They are beyond kind and patient with the children while still being firm and teaching discipline and focus. My daughter has come so far since starting karate. We've also made great friends along the way. When you join this Dojo, you are joining a family! 100% would recommend!
I have 2 sons currently enrolled in the Ninja program. One has been enrolled for over 2 years, the other for only a few months. Not only has there been marked improvement in attitude and confidence for both children, Sensei Scott and Sensei Stacy make a great effort to stress to all their students that they take karate with them everywhere they go. Our children have learned valuable techniques for handling uncomfortable situations such as dealing with strangers and child abductions. We are treated like family every time we walk in the door. Prices are great and we have utilized several specials such as the new student special and the Christmas sale. Highly recommend this dojo to anyone looking for a youth or adult Kenpo Karate program. You won't be disappointed.
We can't say enough about this school and what it has done for our son Levi. Not only has it given him confidence and improved his self-control, but it has challenged him mentally and helped him accomplish great things in and outside the dojo. He's an extremely smart kid and even this has pushed him to his limits. After a few years he's a senior brown belt and recently joined the weapons program. How's well on track to a black belt at some point in the next few years and we're very proud of him and grateful to 360 for all they've done. Scott and Stacy are like a second family to all of us. There isn't anything they wouldn't do for their students. We appreciate all they do for us and how they run a program that demands commitment and doesn't just handout belts unless they are earned. This is really lacking today in a society where everyone gets a trophy for no reason. Thanks for all you do guys. Highly recommended for all ages!
In the 2+ years my son has been going to 360 he has grown in confidence, strength, skill, and leadership. They truly treat you like family and come along side you as a help during different seasons of your (kids) life. My son is now advanced enough to be able to help with the smaller kids and is learning leadership and responsibility in a very tangible way. After 2+ years he is still excited to go to the dojo 2-3 times a week.
Our family has been apart of the 360 family for about 3 years now and we love it. The knowledge behind all of the instructors and sensei's is phenomenal. After several Karate/kenpo schools, we found our home. Its one price to black belt and the prices are the best and are FAIR. The fact that we pay a low price for testing is fantastic for our family. A lot of things they don't even charge for unlike some schools. If you're looking for a great school for ALL AGES, this is the place. Wouldn't go anywhere else.
Excellent martial arts school! My son has been training here for nearly four years (since he was 3) and I've been training there for 5 months. Senseis Scott and Stacy are fantastic people and they both work very hard to have the best dojo around. I am so glad that I found 360 FMA.
Amazing self defense programs for all ages. Mr Scott is a phenomenal instructor great with youth and adults. Training is personalized and highly structured. They have great specials, clinics, events and a variety of training options. The dojo is big and very clean. All their equipment is new and in great condition. This school is on top of its game and has transformed my children. Just a little over a year in this system and all my kids are more confident, coordinated, respectful, independent, and most importantly safer! Their bully prevention and stranger awareness curriculum is excellent. Come on in for a free weekly trial and you will see what I mean.
360 is a great place for adults, youth, and children to learn the art of karate. Mr. Scott is always going above and beyond to help his students. I enrolled two of my kids in the program after we went to a free abduction prevention clinic at the dojo. Parents, karate alone will not keep your kids safe; 360 teaches kids step by step what to do if they are ever approached by a stranger.
My son loves this place. Mr. Scott is awesome, and always willing to go the extra mile for his kids. I would highly recommend this class to anyone wanting to take karate!
Love this place, great instruction, focused on safety and self defense. Instructors are professional and fun for the kids.
Scott and Stacey came to our moms group and spoke to us about women's self defense and we practiced a couple moves. They were great! Really informative and professional.
I love 360 Martial Arts. They are the best in the area. I thoroughly enjoyed my classes with them. I highly recommend their curriculum!
My youngest son participated in a Taekwondo program for approximately two years. We stopped going to the school due to the non-professionalism and unfriendly atmosphere. We were itching to get back into the martial arts, as it's one of his favorite sports to partake in. After reading numerous reviews on the local schools, we decided on 360 Family Martial Arts based on the wonderful reviews from everyone. From the very first phone call, the owners have been welcoming, outstandingly friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. We tried two classes - totally complimentary! - before we knew this was the place for us. It's been a few months now, and we are completely satisfied with our decision. 360FMA is an intimate family where everyone is there to teach, motivate, and encourage one another. It's a setting where students are not trying to be better than one another, but where they are all trying to better each other.
I truly love my 360 Family. The instructors welcomed me and my boys with open arms. My children love going there and have learned discipline and self confidence!!!
Love this dojo and the owners Scott and Stacey! They love the kids and the job that they do and it shows. Great place!!
I love these guys, my grandchildren Precious & Anthony Moore Jr. started taking katate here in July 2013, they really enjoy it. I can remember sitting in my vehicle in Jewel's parking lot in the pouring rain googling karate in Crown Point. I believe I called the first number that came up which was 360 FMA, a young lady by the name of Sam answered the phone telling me how close I was to a dojo. I was actually on my way to a karate class that was located in Crown Point at some Civic Center but it was the best call phone call ever !!! If you're looking for a family oriented location to take karate this dojo is definitely the place to be! Kudos to Sensei(s) Scott and Stacy Conder. :)
We tried two other facilities before we found this one. We have now been here a little over 2 years and are so happy that we found it because it has made such a WONDERFUL difference in our lives. 360 Family Martial Arts has programs for all ages and is VERY family oriented. In addition to martial arts, they teach discipline, respect, and real life self defense techniques for kids, women and men. My son is 8 now and I have noticed a very positive change in his attitude and his manners due to the influence of the martial arts program at 360 FMA. Scott and Stacey are wonderful instructors and take time with every student to help them learn and reach their own potential. I HIGHLY recommend 360 Family Martial Arts!
I am a wife and mother of 3 young children. 4, 2, and 1. Getting to the dojo is hard sometimes for my husband and I, some nights we switch who gets to go but it is ALWAYS WORTH IT! The training and teaching we receive at FMA has brought a fresh wind of rejuvenation to my marriage, my body, my mind and to every part of my life. It sounds to good to be true but it isn't! When I am learning the teachings that make me use my mind, stretch my body, and force me to overcome limitations I am focused and STRESS FREE for my class time! When I go home I think about training and growing and my reflexes are growing and my mind is starting to think like a Martial artist! What's more is that my 4 year old loves his class and his instructors very much and my 2 year old can't wait to be old enough to get on the matts! 360° FMA has changed the Parmas lives!!!
We were referred to 360 by a friend and from the beginning new this was a great place. Everyone is treated with respect and as family. They have taught my son control, discipline and raised his self confidence. They are friendly and nice to work with, wouldn't go any other place.
I wanted to find a place for my son where he could learn self defense techniques and was referred to 360 FMA by a friend. We have been here just over 2 years and we love it! The instructors are very patient with the kids and provide a fun and caring environment. From tigers, to ninjas, to youth class, my son has been encouraged through learning everything from his basic kicks and punches to his techniques and forms! I would definitely recommend this dojo to other parents who want to introduce their children to martial arts!
360 FMA has a great martial arts program! They have classes for all ages and belt levels. They teach the children martial arts but also real world self defense in their classes! They even have programs for very young children that incorporate 'self-defense' techniques to help protect the kiddos! The environment is pleasant and all the students love it. I would recommend this dojo to anyone that is searching for one to call home.
From the second you step through the door, you feel like family. Scott and Stacey have created an amazing environment there at 360. They teach you discipline and respect, but they do it in a way that the kids can learn and still have fun while training. There's a passion in their teaching style that you will not find anywhere else. You pick up on that immediately. From her first lesson, my daughter was hooked. It's a part of her now. She's shown more focus at school and at home. She shows respect to adults and kids a like. I wish we would have known about 360 Family Martial Arts sooner. But, we're here now...I don't see that changing. Once you become a member...you are family!
My boys have been training at 360 Family Martial Arts for almost 2 years. We truly feel as though the members of this dojo are family. The instructors are knowledgeable and genuinely care for their students. They offer an incredible program that strengthen body and character.
I am always impressed with the level of teaching, great attitude and ridiculous amount of fun we have at 360 FMA. American Kenpo is amazingly practical. I would recommend this to anyone - especially families that want something they can all do together.
Respect is first and foremost taught here . It truly is an encouraging and friendly environment . The self defense is practical end effective, Mr. Scott is very patient and helpful with his youngest and inexperienced students all the way up to his most experienced . This is definitely a worthy investment into yours or your children's lives .
I checked out a lot of dojos in the area when I was looking for a place for my family and I to train. It took me months before I tried 360. I've been here for just over six months and have not regretted a single class. My children and I love the atmosphere. There is a level of respect for the instructors, and between students that I didn't see in any other dojo that I visited. If you are looking for a family friendly place to train in a self defense martial art, this is the best place in Northwest Indiana.
Scott and his wife are true professionals at their craft. They teach discipline and courage, as well as Martial Arts!
