Elite Black Belt Academy is an excellent karate school! My daughter has been attending for a year and she absolutely loves it. She has chosen to stay in karate versus dance even though she has been dancing for 5 years. She loves everyone and enjoys going to class!

I am so happy to have daughter in this academy. We have been with Elite for the past 4.5 years. So far everything has worked out smoothly. There is always a good atmosphere, once you step foot in the door you feel right at home. Great Masters and Instructors. I Would not doubt on recommending anyone to the academy.

I am over the moon woth how bith myself and my daughter is treated here at Elite Blackbelt Academy. My daughter is five years old now and i knew from when i came four years ago and Master Muhammad gave me such wise advice and told me that my daughter was too young to join then and to just wait and let her grow and then come back. He was very honest with his words and that let me know that he is very passionate about his work and I was not just a dollar sign.
I am the kind of person who does thorough research on anywhere that my daughter will be involved with adults and activities. I have come across places where i felt they were good so i went in person only to leave feeling like they just want my money. What a Difference with Elite Blackbelt Academy. I Love it here and I already tell everyone I know to come here if you are interested in being in shape as well as providing good fundamental training to your kids.

They're the best, they really care about our kids, they not only teach them to defend themselves they teach them values like confidence, respect, discipline, they teach them to be a better person every day. I love this place and I'm very thankful with the teachers
Mr. Mohammad, Mr. Tarek, Mr. Ahmad and Miss Jaritza for their dedication, when we enrolled our daughter she was not doing so good, hitting kids at school, being disrespectful at home but she has changed a lot and we know is thank to Elite Black Belt Academy, these teachers make you feel like family and they really care about our kids future, they take time to have long talks to the kids when they are not doing good at school or home. I definitely recommend Elite Black Belt Academy 1000% , bringing my daughter to them was the best decision my husband and I ever made.

They are amazing! My daughter has been there for about 3 year now. Her character change instantly, she is focused in school, her discipline has changed she sees everything in a different perspective now.

She actually cares to do good at school if not It affects her in karate.

They leave homework worksheet once a month with the "powefull word of the month" words such as courage, trustworthy, sportsmanship, my all time favorite impulse control and much more.

These words are trully powerful and meaningful to our kids.

I do not regret signing up my daughter! I recommend it all the time.

Now that we've tried some of the others nearby I can tell you this place is 5star. You don't know what you have until it's gone. We will be signing up our daughter again as soon as we can afford it. Elite Academy is no after school care or babysitter, your child will leave stronger and having actually learned something. Well done!

Elite Black Belt Academy is one of the best martial arts school in the area. If you are looking to train and get in better shape I highly recommend their 6 week fitness challenge they offer. One hour class taught by amazing instructors. Master Moe, Master Terek and staff are all friendly, motivating and helpful - they want nothing more then to help you reach your goal.

Update: It's been 3 yrs since we first walked in to Elite Black Belt Academy all pumped and ready to start this black belt journey with my then 3yr old and 6yr old daughters. The energy and passion for this sport has now grown fivefold. My kids love the Academy and the strong friendships that they have created. They get complimented on their level of discipline, drive and focus on all areas of their lives. People always ask me how. Yes, I am a great parent, but with teachings and support from the staff and Instructors at Elite Black Belt Academy my kids give their best and are more confident at attempting new things knowing that they have what it takes to push through. I am happy that we made that first step 3 yrs ago. Looking forward to the rest of our journey and the start for my soon to be 2 yr old son.

Very inviting and friendly environment.

I have been attending the six week challenge for the adults at Elite since it first began. This is my third time doing the 6 week challenge. My experience has been very rewarding. I have lost a total of 25 pounds. However, it is not all about the pounds! Currently, my body feels stronger, my muscles are leaner, my waist is more defined and the cellulite on my thighs are almost gone! In addition to the physical changes, I have also felt social-emotional changes. I feel more self confident, sexy and sassy! I couldn't have done this on my own without the help and motivation of the instructors and staff there. I had assistance during the class and after the class through their helpful posts on social media and one to one conference. The group of individuals in the class are very diverse, which makes it more interesting and fun. I highly recommend the six week challenges at Elite BBA, if you want a fun and motivating atmosphere, diverse high/low impact exercises and individual attention to your eating/lifestyle habits. Give it a try, what do you have to lose? Other than those extra pounds.........

This academy is just amazing. The masters and Ms. Jay are so good with the kids. Based on my experience, my son was always a good boy but sometimes was just not focusing in important things like homework and everyday tasks. Ever since he started martial arts he is more dedicated and focused on school. He always had good grades and always made to honor roll but now he is so into developing more skills in other areas that he is also getting awards in subjects like art and physical ed. Most importantly, my son always wanted to be the first on everything. I've seen a big change on that behavior, now he puts more value on doing his best and earning things the right way. I can't thank you enough for all you do with our kids. I recommend this academy 100%

I started boot camp 5 weeks ago on recommendation from a friend. I was skeptical at first for many of reasons. First off let me say the 1st day was the hardest day EVER scratch that the 1st week was. In my head I kept telling myself I couldn't do this, and asking myself what I was doing here. I was my biggest critic and my biggest hater. I have gone to gym(s) and even CKO and have never felt worked the way I have here. Not only do I feel worked, I feel stronger, energized and confident. Added bonus I have lost almost 5lbs, inches and toned. I dropped down a size in my jeans. My husband tells me everyday how Great I look and even if he didn't I feel it. Master Mohammad and Master Tarek, Amjad and Miss Jay are so supportive, informative and clearly love what they do. They make a great support system for anyone who is looking to get healthier and fit. I am not going to say the classes get easier, because they don't it gets harder and sometimes I think they are trying to kill us! But you just get stronger and are able to endure more. Next week I will have completed my 1st 6 week challenge. I can't wait to see what the next challenge will be. Can you?

I am thrilled with Elite BBA! Masters Moe and Tareq have contagious wonderful positive energy. My daughter loves training and can't wait for the value-system/life-principle lesson right before the end of the session. Your kids get to tap into their physical and psychological development. Bonus learning experience :-) For adults, they have a fantastic kickboxing class that will get you super toned and very soon you'll be a pro in self-defense techniques- which I am committed to expand in. Thank you very much guys for helping us reach our fitness goals. You are doing great things for all of us! You are very much appreciated.

As a parent of 2 kids ages 8 and 11, we absolutely love EBBA. The instructors' knowledge, professionalism, care and hard work surely reflects on the kids as they aim to reach their full potential. Besides a powerful word of the month that the kids learn, they also teach discipline and respect by giving it and getting it. My kids are more responsible and love going to class. EBBA has programs for all ages, including adults. Currently I'm in the 6-week challenge and I absolutely love it. Exercise, boxing, nutrition info, tips, weekly weigh-ins, etc. plus making new friends that support u in your journey of transformation. We are blessed as a family to have EBBA in our lives, you can be too, give them a try...

Worst place ever unprofessional.. I went with my three years old to evaluate him and the lady who support to do the evaluation was so rude .. my appt was at 1:30 I arrived at 1:20 it was a class and i seat until the class finished and ten minutes later came a man with his kid. After the class finish the secretary came to me and told me I had to wait 15 more because they wanted to start with the man and his kid fisrt I asked her why if my appt was at 1:30 and it was 1:35 so the other lady came and told me that his appt was at 1 .. so my question was how they appt was at 1 and he came at 1:25 also how the had a class in somebody else appt and last why they didn't call me to change appointments time ... my experience with this school was the worst the lady was so rude and unprofessional i would not recommend it to anyone

My son has been attending Elite BBA since he was 4. He is now 8 and from day 1 all instructors, and Masters as well as staff were wonderful, kind, polite and amazing. They have helped me when my son was having trouble in school and slacking off. I myself am currently enrolled in the 6 week fitness challenge and I dont regret one day being at Elite. Ive known them and been to this school 4 years now Elite BBA is part of our family. You have to be there 4 days of the week for years the way many of us parents are to know that Elite BBA is not just any karate school or business it is 2nd home to our kids and family. Thank you Elite BBA!!
