“Excellent dojo & phenomenal Sensei. Inviting to all ages wanting to learn the art of self defense both mentally and physically. It has been very empowering to personally learn from this dojo about situational awareness and focusing on avoiding and de-escalating dangerous situations before they happen.”

“Great School, Training, and Staff. Highly recommended will help build your self confidence.“

“I feel more aware of my stand, punch, kick, and footwork. My classmates are very friendly as well! They are buff haha but very friendly. Most of them were former military. I definitely will study here again!”

“I have been a student at this dojo for over 10 years. I started class thinking I would take it for a while, while I enjoyed it and got something out of it. 10 years later I am still growing and learning and enjoying Sensei John McGonigle and his excellent classes.”

“I have been a student of Sensei John McGonigle’s for almost 5 years. I’ve seen a lot of people start at the dojo, and it doesn’t matter if it’s your first day or your 5th year, everyone is treated with respect and encouraged to do their best.“

“Great place to learn! John’s a wonderful teacher, very professional and knowledgeable. I’d recommend MAHF to anyone!”

It's the will. Not the skill.

Most frequent questions and answers about our teen martial arts program in Philadelphia

Will my child become a bully?

Our Philadelphia teen martial arts training builds humility, confidence, and respect in teens. These traits turn teen into the opposite of bullies. They become leaders.

Do parents need to stay?

That’s completely up to you. If you need some time to yourself to relax – go get a coffee or a bite to eat. Parents deserve all the time off you can get. If you’d like to stay and observe you are more than welcome to as well.

What do I need to bring to my first lesson?

My child has ADD/ADHD, will martial arts help?

My child is not athletic, will they feel left out?

For teens who are not natural athletes – team sports can be devastating on self-esteem. These teens often feel like they are ‘letting the team down’ because they can’t keep up as well.

In martial arts, students are in a group environment, but every child is on their own unique journey. They can go at their own pace. Some teens advance faster, others slower. That’s okay.

What’s important is that your child is having fun, challenging themselves, making friends, and growing stronger inside and out.

The coordination, strength, and speed comes with time – even in teens who are not ‘natural athletes’!

My child is addicted to video games, will this be suitable?

Yes! In fact, teen martial arts training might be the best solution to this problem. That’s because martial arts are challenging both physically and mentally. This keeps teens engaged and focused. Plus, every Philadelphia martial arts class is full of fun, fitness-boosting games where teens are learning focus, confidence, and respect without even realizing it.

We disguise learning as fun – and keep your child laughing and smiling. They won’t miss their games for a moment.
