    I highly recommend NEMA to all parents seeking martial arts training for their children and positive physical development. My 5y son, Ahaan has been attending the New England Martial Arts Athletic Center for a few months, and he absolutely loves it. He has made great progress during this time. Master Cooper is amazing and is great with kids!

    Master Cooper is truly amazing! He’s caring, inspiring, and has such a special way of connecting with the kids. My child has grown so much in confidence, focus, and self-discipline thanks to his guidance. You can tell how much he genuinely loves teaching and wants every student to succeed. We feel really lucky to have him as our coach!

    I would recommend NEMA to all parents. Our son used to play soccer on the weekends and did not really gain anything out of it except maybe exercise for an hour. We decided to try mixed martial arts to help our child develop self discipline, perseverance, defend himself, and also learn hard work and dedication . A lot of kids in today’s society expect things to be handed to them. We wanted our child to know the joy of hard work paying off and earning your success. The growth we have seen in him from only a couple months is amazing. Instead of him saying “I can’t” constantly when something is hard, he tries- and most of the time succeeds. If he does not succeed he has learned to practice and try again. His confidence has grown tremendously, he has learned it is not always about winning , but rather learning and growing. If you’re on the fence of what to do for extracurriculars for your child- this is it. This is a family run school- which gives it that extremely close knit feel. We love Master Cooper, Master Mike, and Master Red! They made us feel like part of the team immediately and you can tell they have a passion for what they do.Come join the team and watch your child thrive.

    In my experience, different viewpoints from people of diverse backgrounds have played a crucial role in my growth as a person. One place that I have been able to learn about different viewpoints is in Martial Arts, specifically Taekwondo. I have participated in New England Martial Arts for 8 years now, and I have learned a ton of new things from all kinds of people. In my school, there are all kinds of different people from many different backgrounds, whether they be different religions, different ethnicity/race, or different age, there is always something to learn. Everyone of these people shared a different viewpoint, and in this case, it was a viewpoint in fighting. They expressed these viewpoints through different styles of fighting. With such a wide range of fighting styles, it was always important for me to analyze these different fighting styles, and to be able to learn how to approach different people in a sparring match. In this way, I learned how to embrace different viewpoints in fighting, and use it to learn how to fight my opponent. Like Taekwondo, everyone's experiences are composed of different things, and everyone has something that they can bring to the table. In Taekwondo, it was the viewpoint of how to fight. But outside of Taekwondo, different viewpoints are essential to growth. And just like how my peers can help me grow, I helped others too, because I learned that at Taekwondo, the other students are like family to me. The background and unique experiences of the teachers at New England Martial Arts can be valuable to any student who is willing to learn, and they too can experience growth.

    My Taekwondo Journey I started training at New England Martial Arts (NEMA) when I was 8 years old, and now, 10 years later at 18, l can honestly say it's been one of the most important parts of my life. Over the years, l've grown up here - from learning my first kicks to competing at tournaments as part of the competition team. The training has always been challenging, but also fun and rewarding. Being on the competition team pushed me to work harder. I've competed in many both winning and losing. The instructors and teammates at NEMA have really become like a second family to me. Everyone supports each other, and the environment motivates you to keep improving every day. Getting my black belt was a huge milestone, but continuing to train, grow, and take on new challenges has been just as important. NEMA has shaped not just my martial arts skills, but who I am as a person. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to learn, grow, and be part of a great community.
