My young grandson started classes at Cheyenne Karate Academy (American Martial Arts Systems) a few months ago. Over time, he is maturing into a strong, responsible, respectful, confident young man, who is developing martial arts skills, and life skills, that are preparing him to meet the challenges of this world, for the rest of his life. And this is happening in a fun, safe and caring environment. I would recommend this school to anyone seeking similar benefits for their kids or themselves. I couldn't be more pleased with the results we are experiencing. Thank you.
The most well rounded martial arts classes I have ever seen. So lucky this academy is in cheyenne. My son has been attending for several months and loves it.
I love the enthusiasm that Sensei is able to get from the kids. Great leadership training!
Sensei Tyler is so good with the kids. His support team of co-teachers are perfect.
This is a wonderful supportive environment with trained proffessionals who promote positive growth and self discipline for youth and adults.
We had classes on my days off and it was at a great time. My daughter and I were able to do our classes right after each other. However, due to the quantity of new people signing up for classes they had to change my class time and it made it very difficult for me to make it to classes, have quality time with my family, get to bed early enough for work, and also study for my job. When I thought I was going to have to quit and just eat the cost of my class, Tyler (owner) was willing to work with me so that I could make it to a class and keep on learning. This is an amazing place to learn and be. I have never felt so welcomed by a company as I do now. On top of all of that my daughter loves her classes. I definitely recommend 10/10.
Great environment, friendly staff and enjoy the atmosphere. Love the learning experience!!!!!
I love this place! The instruction is top notch, honorable, and family friendly. Sensei Leihsing's ability to work with children is amazing (my son is enrolled), and my experience as one of his adult students has been fantastic. I consider it a great honor and privilege to be one of Sensei Leihsing's students.
The best environment, best instructors! I can rely on the fact that I can defend myself if ever needed with confidence because of Mr. Leihsing and his amazing staff! I also wouldn't take my children anywhere else! Clean, friendly and organized!
We love this school! Our whole family trains except the youngest who loves watching her big sisters train. We like the flexibility of class times and being able to make up classes if we miss a day. Sensei Tyler teaches respect, focus, hard work and everything else that makes a good martial artist. Kids classes are the perfect combination of fun and learning karate skills. The dojo is kept clean and neat. There is plenty of seating for parents to watch their kids. And we get a family discount so it ends up being quite a deal!
This place is amazing it is family orientated. They have a very flexible schedule and are grate about working with you. They do grate to work with kids that need a little extra help. If your kids is struggling in any way mood or behavior it is a grate place to help give them something to look forward to also to maybe help level mood out and have some place to have a release of energy if that is what you are looking for. This place is just all around amazing it has helped my kids become the grate leaders they are today.
Awesome teacher, great lessons, just wow
I love this place :) great team, great trainers...training here u become family. Everyone so supportive keeping u possitive as u push towards success within the gym to reach whatever goal you have.
The American Martial Arts System is an exemplary school of impeccable standards. Mr. Tyler Leishing is an outstanding individual both as a teacher/instructor. I had my first introductions and lessons into the martial arts world by Mr. Leishing some thirty years ago. I have only praise for him and the American Martial Arts Systems. Laird Thomas
Love this place they not only take you under their wing, they also make you feel welcome everytime with open arms.
With over 10 years of martial arts experience and having trained in various styles and locations, I can confidently recommend AMAS to any veteran or aspiring martial artist. Mr. Leihsing fosters a welcoming and inclusive environment for individuals of all ages and aspirations. Integrated martial arts systems deliver total body conditioning, and I leave each class at AMAS feeling more athletic, and more uplifted, than the last.
A great place with a great instructor! You should it a try.
Everyone here is great to work with, not just the teachers but the other students as well. Taking karate lessons has been something I have always wanted to do and now, at almost 50 years of age, I am glad I am doing it. This school has a great learning environment and has been fantastic. I would recommend American Martial Arts Systems to anyone who is interested in studying martial arts.
I have known Mr. Leihsing for nearly 30 years and have a great respect for him as a martial artist and a teacher. This is a great place to train and lean about what martial arts can o for you.
Having been involved in the martial arts of the rocky mountain region since 1970, I have had the privilege of not only personally knowing Tyler's lineage in the martial arts, I've had the privilege of watching Mr. Leisig develop not only as a well respected martial artist but as a highly-respected person. He epitomizes the virtues of perseverance and respect so highly sought in martial arts. I have no problem at all praising Mr. Leisig for his dedication to the Arts and his students. Ben Ramsey
Top notch institution! Great instructor. I have known him for a long time, a man of great integrity!
Me and my family have been going here for several years it has really helped my children with both focus and confidence.
American Martial Arts Systems in my opinion has one of the best programs in the country. They help you develop self discipline and confidence. Children, women, and men can all benefit from the great programs offered here! I have been a student of Mr. Leihsing on and off since the late 80's both as a child, and as an adult. During my youth I was an avid competitor in the martial arts tournaments in the Colorado/Wyoming area. Mr. Leihsing was always in my corner coaching and providing me with valuable feedback not just how I could improve as a martial artist but also as a person. As a young adult I had the opportunity of being an instructor in Mr. Leihsing's school. I was humbled by the opportunity and was very proud of my time with the school. The only reason I am not still there today is because I moved out of the area. If you are considering any martial arts instruction, check this place out!
Great place to learn and train. I have spent over a year there now and have felt as welcome as I did my first day!
I enjoy being a student as well as a parent of students of this school. I find it very rewarding to train along side my children at a school we all feel teaches life skills and self defense on a personal level. Great school!
Love this place! Family friendly and great prices. Our whole family enjoys training at AMAS.
A positive school for kids and adults . After attending multiple schools across this country this school with its instructors and curriculum has been the best
No place else in town I would ever take my kids to learn or train myself! Not only martial arts but life long skills for the betterment of our future! You rock Amas!!!
Great family environment! We've learned so many valuable techniques! Wonderful, non-threatening environment for adults and children! So glad we made the decision to join!
I really do wish that I could give a 5 star rating because the instruction and the lessons were good and kept our 5 year old engaged. The down side of this business is that we were mislead by Tyler when we signed our 1 year contract for almost $150 a month. We live 45 miles away from Cheyenne and our concern was our ability to make the drive back and forth , trying to fit in the kempo classes with our children's school schedule. At the time that we signed the contract the owner told us and reassured us that if it became to much for us we could figure something out. Well here we are trying to figure something out and the something is that you will be held to this contract regardless of what you are told at the signing. Because of the covid-19 virus I was furloughed a month ago and my un employment is 1/3 of what it was, American martial arts has closed its doors for public classes so even if we wanted to attend we could not, we are still being charged for classes that are not being conducted and no one will return our phone calls. Maybe someone should have the owner of this business attend some classes on integrity,compassion and up front business practices to include basic business ethics and this would help this business achieve 2 more stars from someone who is struggling to make ends meet in these crazy times.
Was excited about giving this place a try only to be forgotten. I called, and they didn't answer, so I drove in, spoke with someone about what I'm looking for and filled out a form with my contact info and was told they would discuss with the other instructor and they'd follow up. That never happened. So, I called back 3 or 4 more times, sent another email, and left voicemails and still never heard back. Not a great experience trying to join this place.
Went to stop in and see what it’s about and there was a stocky mid aged man mean mugging everyone walking in- not saying hi not being friendly - made sure to make everyone feel unwelcome- giving this place on Stilwell a chance- would have loved to try for the kiddos but we left after 5 minutes of seeing this guy at the front desk-1st impressions - if you’re looking to make money -keep that mean looking -bent over -head in hands glaring guy in the back that doesn’t say hello to your inquiring customers. Terrible.
They were very friendly and opened at the introduction. When discussing the sign up, we specifically stated that we didn't know if our son would like to stick to it on the long term and that we just wanted to give it a try. They answered with a very vague "We'll work with him if he don'ts feel like to continue". In our naive minds we thought this was straight forward talking. Months later my son and I (yes, I hated going there) decided to stop and the answer when we requested to cancel the membership is that it is a year contract. When confronted about our first conversation then they simply denied it saying "I didn't say you could sign out at any point". In conclusion, we are paying a monthly payment for a class my son is not taking because he doesn't enjoy at all (maybe it works for other kids, but not mine). On the positive side, the teachers are nice. On the negative side, the place is very run down and dirty (I dreaded having to take him to class, and thorougly washed his feet afterwards) , and it seems like they use the yearly contract to keep you hooked. To me this sounds very fishy.
They use your money while on vacation for other children. They have contracts that offer non refunds especially to military families. Do not go here!!!!
