My 5 year old loves classes here! We have tried sports, and it always became a battle to get him to go. We have been coming for almost a year, and he loves coming to class here. The instructors have always been fantastic. They give them a great balance of structure and fun. Plus, all of the staff is incredibly approachable and easy to talk to. It has been a game changer for us!

We love Martial Posture! Our kindergartener was so nervous to start karate and go to aftercare, and Mr Ish and his team could not have been better for our family! The pickups from Greenfield are seamless, and the whole team knows our kid so well. The MP team has made aftercare easy, with camps and extended hours on half days and school holidays.

Martial Posture has been a life saver for our busy family. The staff provide structure, discipline and fun for our son and provide the consistent care and coverage that allow my husband and I to continue to grow our demanding careers. After-school care, half-day and full-day camps when PSD closes early or altogether, fun summer camp programming, and even emergency care like today when the district decided at noon to close schools at 1pm - Ish and Helen and the team were there to pick up our kids so parents didn’t have to scramble to pick them up in time. I am so thankful to be a part of the Martial Posture family.

This my spot! My son has been going here for over 4yrs. and I enrolled my youngest son in their program last year. Martial Posture has taught my son's, discipline, focus and that hard work does pay off. The staff are amazing too. Excellent place to build a well-rounded warrior.

What a wonderful place. Our second grader comes to Martial Posture for everything: after school programs; summer camp; Martial Posture is even open for half-day and full-day camps whenever the school district is closed! The staff are incredibly friendly, helpful and responsive, as is the owner. I'd live here if I could!
