Naga - Martial Arts | Self Defense | Community

We started here about a month ago and have been deeply impressed. The whole Naga team has been so welcoming and enthusiastic about our daughter joining. They manage to meet each student where they are, introduce appropriate challenges, and have fun at the same time. I can clearly see how much they care about empowering my daughter. I am so grateful to have found the Naga family and look forward to the adventure ahead.

I took a self defense class with my teenage daughter thru Naga in April 2021. The class was exactly what I was looking for! It was informative, empowering and fun! Sylvia and her staff are very knowledgeable and really help create an environment that feels very safe and inclusive. I walked away feeling more confident, more prepared and more aware of my own strength.

Our daughter attended summer camp last year, and she fell in love with Naga. She's been training since the fall, and often tells my husband and I that it feels like her second family. She has become more confident and assertive, has taken on leadership roles with younger students, and has learned so much about physical and mental strength and well-being. Our son joined Little Monkeys about a month or so after his sister started training, and he leaps out of bed every Saturday to get to the studio. He loves Silvia and Jeff, and as an educator myself, I'm impressed at how they handle a roomful of high energy kiddos! Naga has helped him channel his emotions productively and connect with a warm and loving community. We can't wait to see what the next year brings! Thank you!

My son started Little Monkeys at Naga last summer after training for a year at another school. Mas Sylvia and Mas Jeff provided a welcoming environment and did a great job affirming what he already knew while encouraging him to challenge himself in new ways. Little Monkeys has boosted my son’s confidence and, most importantly, he is having a ton of fun. Highly recommend.

Silvia, My daughter absolutely loved her 1st class. She came over to me 3 times and said "this is fun!" I also wanted to tell you that I think the way you teach this class is absolutely amazing. I don't often get to sit and watch anymore, but after a year (for anyone reading this review, we have another daughter who has been in this program for over a year) I'm still impressed! You're one of the most welcoming people I've ever met, (which has been passed down to all of the senior students and black belts - I'm super impressed by the teenage black belts in particular), and the way you can make new students feel at home, let the students have fun and express themselves, and then be able to silence that room with a single word is truly remarkable. For our daughters (and sons) to see women in leadership roles commanding that kind of respect and admiration is what's going to change the world. Sincerely, Kris Gillmore
