I was super surprised when my 9YO showed interest in martial arts. Ignition is in the neighborhood and has a free first time trial.. and the rest is history! Master Brown and his team are kind, supportive, thoughtful, and funny. They make exercise, discipline, and self-defense fun. It’s amazing to watch the more experienced kids helping the newer ones. Just watching the class inspires me to be improve on the six tenets of success: courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, indomitable spirit, and humility.

My son has thrived at Ignition Martial Arts. He came to this dojo from another and since switching to studying under Master Alvin Brown he has truly found the program that compliments his own discipline and athleticism. Master Brown also manages to give his students nurturing guidance regarding strength, kindness and endurance that help them far beyond the mat. The positive impact that being part of this dojo and community has had for our family goes beyond my ability to put it into words. We are very grateful.

I had brought my kids in a few years ago during a 2week trial and they fell in love. Unfortunately we did have to wait to sign up so we only did the trial at that time. Fast forward 2 years and my daughter has now been enrolled. So far she loves it and has picking up on the skills rather quickly. We love Master Brown and his ability to get the kids involved and to stay on task. You can clearly see his passion for Karate and that shows in the skill set of the different belts seen on the kids. Very grateful to be enrolled and look forward to seeing what else my daughter learns under his tutelage.

I'm a big fan of Ignition Martial Arts and I highly recommend it. As a parent, this program covers all the life lessons I want my child to learn. And there is no better instructor to teach those life lessons than Master Brown and his team. I've watched my child's confidence grow as he's been in this program. He really enjoys Master Brown and attending his classes. Of all the sports programs my child has attended, this is by far his favorite.
