My husband and son LOVE this gym! Both started as beginners and are hooked. My husband started at 40, so it's not too late. Daniel and Alicia are excellent coaches and I'm so grateful for this place!

If you're looking for a martial arts school that offers an exceptional experience, definitely come in to try Elite Martial Arts. We have tried a few different Martial Arts studios and this one is by far our favorite. What sets them apart is their approach to teaching mixed martial arts rather than focusing on just one discipline. My son really enjoys the classes and it keeps the training exciting and challenging. The sensei has a fantastic ability to make every class entertaining, thanks to his great sense of humor :) He knows how to keep the energy high and make learning fun, which is so important for keeping kids engaged. My son is always excited to go, and I’ve seen him grow not only in skill but in confidence as well. I highly recommend Elite Martial Arts to anyone looking for a top-notch martial arts school in Williamson County, the mix of techniques and the amazing atmosphere created by the sensei makes this a fantastic place to train.

We are so very proud to be apart of the Elite Martial Arts family. My son joined in 2018 when he was 8 years old. We searched everywhere for the right place. After the first class my son looked at me and said this is the place for me dad. I figured after a while he would grow tired and want to drop out, specially during COVID. Mr. And Mrs. Klapheke adapted so fast and still had my son engaged even when they did the online classes. The level of consistency they offer in there classes is definitely next level. Mr. Klapheke pushes them to do there absolute best. My wife and I are so grateful to have found such an amazing place to watch our son grow. Would recommend Elite Martial Arts to anyone out there. So proud of our new connection to the Cobra Kai Family. We are such huge fans.

Our two boys have been attending this karate school for a couple of years now, and we honestly can't express how much they absolutely love it! It's a family-owned dojo that's run with incredible professionalism and heart. Mr. and Mrs. Klapheke are simply awesome with kids. They have a remarkable way of instilling discipline and respect while simultaneously teaching martial arts skills very effectively. They are passionate about what they do, and it shines through in how engaged and enthusiastic the children are.

Our kids have been at Elite Martial Arts for a year and I am blown away at the amount of growth and confidence achieved in this time. We have a 12.5 year old son and an 8.5 year old girl that are both enrolled. It’s so nice to have a Dojo that accommodates these age groups at the same times. Our kids have thrived here and it is because of the incredible instruction of the owners and their staff. We are so grateful to Elite for this journey that our kids are so, so happy to be on.The discipline and compassion that Elite shows our kids each and every time we enter their space is truly remarkable. We couldn’t possibly recommend enough!!
