The atmosphere is welcoming and supportive, and the instructor is incredibly kind and genuinely cares about his students. The training sessions are well-rounded, focusing on speed, power, and variety, making each class enjoyable and engaging. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to train and grow!
Posted 7 months agoI have been a member of Ryer for five years, and it has helped me become the healthiest version of myself. Ryer also brings together very friendly people, and I feel fortunate to socialize with them.
Posted 7 months agoI can't say enough about Ryer academy and all the amazing teachers there. My daughter started there at age 3 and is now 8 and still loves it and enjoys every class. The school has not only given her physical skills, body awareness and self defense tactics, but it has also given her confidence and has developed her character. For anyone thinking of karate for themselves or their child, Ryer academy is a special place!
Posted 4 years agoI visited Ryer Academy in July 2012 with my youngest son, as we were interested in helping him learn self discipline through the practice of martial arts. We were respectfully greeted by the owner, Josh Ryer, and were invited to a free week of classes in their excellent facilities. We weren't pressured into enrolling, as Josh was and is always very mindful of how he conducts himself around others and is very considerate of the families who choose Ryer as the place for their children's instruction. Since then, we have always felt welcomed. Josh and the other instructors are the kind of people who we feel like we've always known, and who make Ryer Academy a place we look forward to going each week. Somehow, they always have time to have a conversation with myself and my children. We were so pleased with the how Josh and the other pre-k instructors conducted class that we also enrolled our oldest son, who absolutely loves it. Our daughter, now 2, begs to take class and we honestly can't wait until she's old enough to join her brothers. Our boys have learned so much from being in an environment that fosters respect for others in addition to the obvious top notch martial arts/self defense instruction. Thank you, Josh, for making Ryer Academy a wonderful place.
Posted 11 years agoI have been a member of Ryer Academy since the fall 2010, and I absolutely love it. While Ryer has many different programs to offer I have been a dedicated cardio kick boxer. I absolutely love the workouts. It is a great mix of cardio, abs, kicking, and my personal favorite punching. No matter what type of mood I am in before class I ALWAYS leave feeling great. You do not have to be the most physical or active person to get started in the kickboxing class. I had never even worked out before I joined. The staff is extremely personable and the atmosphere is always friendly. I have made great friendships here at Ryer, and would recommend anyone come check it out for themselves.
