Mr Graves is a great instructor. He takes his time with the children to make sure that they all understand everything and get every move correct. My son enjoys karate and it has improved his behavior and attitude. I appreciate mr Graves for all his dedication and hard work

We love the Henry Graves Martial Arts Academy! Hanshi Henry Graves fills his dojo with positivity, excellence, and respect. The students excel because they are empowered to do so. We have tried several dojos across Orlando and HGMAA is the whole package. With personal attention, students of all ages learn and progress in environment that is as encouraging as it is disciplined. By teaching and modeling discipline and respect, Hanshi gets even the most fidgety child to settle down and do his or her best!
