I have been training at KCMA for a few months now, having primarily looked for a gym that offers CSW. As an experienced martial artist who has trained at various academies in various arts/systems, I feel I can gauge the quality of instruction fairly well. I have to say that coach Keith is a very experienced martial artist, who, through his competence, personality, and open-mindedness has already made me better not only at grappling, but also at boxing and kickboxing. The atmosphere at KCMA is very open and welcoming, and even people completely new to martial arts are not overwhelmed or intimidated by what is being taught and how it is being taught. At the same time, experienced practitioners and competitors are being challenged and met at their level, so they can continue to progress. I’m looking forward to continue my martial arts journey at KCMA and would recommend this academy to anyone who is interested in building or advancing a martial arts skill set for themselves or their children.
