We love Poway Kenpo and the Barker family. As a result there are 2 black belts in our family, me and my son. There is no better place to train for martial arts, kickboxing, and beyond. This is a professional studio with world class training but in a family atmosphere. Bring your kids, your neighbors and yourself, you will not regret it.. I will never stop training. I have learned how skills and how to fight and it feels amazing to never be scared physically.

This is an amazing gym, great instructors ! The boxing and Muay thai classes are efficient, and I learn a lot. Hopefully plan to come back soon. The gym has plenty of boxing bags, and mats to train and exercise.

I just started taking boxing lessons here a few months ago and I couldn't be any happier. The staff is excellent. The facilities are super clean and the equipment is in great shape and well maintained. Coach Jordan is an excellent boxing coach. He has the ability to get the most out of everyone - whether you're new to boxing or at an advanced level. If you want to learn some useful self defense skills and don't mind getting real sweaty in the process - this is the place to be!

The instructors are knowledgeable and highly skilled. There is a positive family atmosphere. You have the best Karate program for kids I have seen in over 20 years. My daughter is thriving in the kids classes.

My son went to karate for six months here. Mr. B. and Patty are really nice and very knowledgeable about karate. I liked having my son taking his classes here and interacting with them while we were current customers. It was a good experience for my son, but we did not like our inaccurate billing situation afterwards.
