Calasanz Martial Arts is a fantastic place to learn different facets of mixed martial arts. I’ve had a great experience thus far. Calasanz has cultivated an awesome culture at the gym, everyone is there to learn traditional and modern fighting techniques. If you are serious about learning how to fight from scratch or level up your professional skills, this is the place.
Calasanz is a great gym and he is a fantastic martial arts instructor. I was delighted when Calasanz allowed me to wear my sneakers with orthodics, as I am flat-footed having lifelong challenges with balance and coordination. Other dojos I've
seeked in the past didn't permit wearing sneakers but Calasanz DOES! He also has extensive knowledge of the human body and will devise a physical program tailored to whatever physical makeup/limitations you have, with the goal of making you stronger physically and mentally. Many times I was surprised at the strength I obtained and and his method of instruction teaches you how to think, retain and add to your regimen as you gain more knowledge and understanding of martial arts and exercising. I regained my coordination and sense of confidence, and i strongly reccomended Calasanz. He offers a wealth of knowledge and power to students from young children to senior citizens. Go see him! -Jim Murphy
Great Martial arts Studio in Fairfield County, I found Calasanz after relocating to the area. Calasanz works with each student's individual goals to improve overall fitness, self defense, tradition martial art, MMA, and boxing! I would Recommend training here regardless of fitness level knowledge, a lot to learn at Calasanz!
Great teacher for all of types of fighting, like mma, boxing, mma and boxing great for all types of training for endurance, strength training, flexibility.
I was looking to get back into a fighting sport and found myself back at Calasanz. I could not be happier with the instruction I am getting and all I am learning.
This place is amazing! You will be impressed and motivated from the moment you walk in there. Calasanz has a very special vibe. I walked in with just a curiosity to check out the place but the moment I stepped in I knew I wanted to do my training there. Calasanz training method takes the traditional martial art styles and combines them with modern techniques. I walked in looking to train my body but left with a desire to train my body and my mind as well. This place IS AMAZING!
Calasanz Martial Arts center is more than a gym. When you join, you join a family. Not only it is a place where you learn self defense and discipline, but also a great place to get in shape, stronger and more agile. Calasanz System teaches you life skills that can be transferred into all aspects of life, business and relationships. It is a great way to learn how to defend yourself, learn ultimate confidence and improve your mindset. I recommend you to come for a free trial so you could see for yourself how great and unique of a school this really is.
Second to none! I've trained with Calasanz for 5 years and he is truly a master of not only several martial arts disciplines, but of movement. He will not only develop your mind and body, but also help you find balance and a form that is your own. From those who aspire to be professional fighters to those who just want to get in shape and gain confidence, you will find no better instruction than from Calasanz.
I found Calasanz studio randomly about a year ago while looking for a local gym rather than a place to train in martial arts. The first time I met Calasanz my first thought was I stumbled onto an episode of Cobra Kai and was talking to Mr Miyagi. I gave it a chance over joining a more conventional gym and a year later I’m happy I found it. Calasanz has a lot of knowledge on strength training and flexibility and a lot of knowledgeable people there always willing to teach something new. I would recommend checking him out
I've been training and teaching here for a combined 20 years or so. Best technical martial arts school around. Master Calasanz is the real deal when it comes to core strength, power, and teaching students how to fight without getting hurt or injured. Highly recommend for beginners, advanced martial artists, or competitors.
We were hesitant about martial arts, but when my son expressed interest a few months ago, we researched multiple facilities; references and reviews brought us to Calasanz Martial Arts. Our son started martial arts and as just another activity, but the overall approach Calasanz takes has made self defense a critical foundation for our son's overall development. The emphasis on building strong character, developing leadership skills, and maximizing personal strengths for the good, have been guiding principles that have been paramount, influencing in his behavior at school, other sports and activities, but also his goals for the future. We have been more than impressed, and we are grateful for what Calasanz Martial Arts do and the impact they have in our family.
Early this fall of 2021, I met Calasanz through my boyfriend, who started to bring his teenage son there for boxing training. I immediately was impressed with Calasanz's' knowledge of martial arts and fitness. I visited the center on Saturday mornings to participate in the group morning classes he held. The classes were short but very effective, in that I mean I felt like my body had went thru a series of deep stretching that helped my blood flow and I felt energized after the class.
I highly recommend the Calasanz Martial Arts & Boxing Center to go visit him to see what classes fit your fitness needs and/or goals.
Calasanz is an incredible place for people of all ages and skill levels to learn boxing / martial arts. From real competitive fighters to younger kids learning self defense, everybody is welcome. The instructor Calasanz is extremely knowledgeable about different fighting styles and is also an incredible teacher. Great environment, great training, etc. This gym has everything you'll need!!!
I go to Calasanz to get motivation and power. I am in my 70's and really feel like I'm getting young because of the exercises in his program. HesH a great teacher with tremendous experience. I'm hooked
Greta place to train, big space, Calazans is a great sensei and a great person, the vibe of the place is amazing, the feeling of achieving your personal goals and been train by someone with experience as Calasanz, makes me feel I can achieve it.
A true master teacher, if you want to actually learn Kung Fu, this is the guy! This is how I was taught, all the way back 50 years ago, and I am still doing my exercises and Katas and I am very fast, very healthy and flexible at 65 years
When I told my friend Marty that I wanted to go to a MMA mixed martial arts gym to train and get back into shape the first thing he said was; "Call Calasanz Martinez, the man has a gift that the commercial glitzy fancy places cannot compete with" Boy was he right! There are professional fighters, Men and Women boxers, Kung Fu, Wing Chun, Karate for adults and children, models, and regular people like myself looking to get into the best shape of their lives, I personally recommend one on one Street Fighter Classes. Calasanz takes my training seriously, and even follows up with me to verify I am coming in to train! I have made many friends here and would highly recommend Calasanz Martial Arts to anyone.
i have been training at Calasanz for a few years now and i can honestly say its the best gym i have been to.i am in the best shape in my life, when i first came to the gym i was overweight and unhealthy. After a few months i noticed how much skinnier i was getting and how much my striking has improved. i have been to many gyms and i have had many trainers but none of them have been as effective as Calasanz. The gym is amazing and clean, its like something out of a Bruce Lee movie. it is like no other place i have been to!
Calasanz is a scheming low class thief of a human. He charged me for a month membership and moved the gym to a different location the following week with conscious and dishonest intent. I asked him for my money back and he said no. Ive been told by other members of the gym he did the same to them. People should know what kind of person he is. Don’t go there.
