We thoroughly enjoy our membership here! It is a safe, comfortable environment where our son has been able to interact with peers, exercise, learn a skill all while increasing his self confidence and learning self control. The Senseis are friendly and encouraging and they have included our daughter in many of the additional activities that they provide!
Very professional! Exceptional communication. Our children feel safe, encouraged, but also challenged appropriately for their age group. Great for working on focus with younger students.
My son has been in this program for almost two years. He has learned confidence, focus, respect, and so much more. It has been a great experience! The facility is very clean, and the staff is very helpful with any questions.
Such a fun time here, they are wonderful with the kids and they genuinely care so much and you can tell. My daughter is four and just started she loves it so much! ❤️
My daughter LOVES going to karate class! Since day 1 she has felt welcomed and part of the CMA family! The instructors are very friendly and knowledgeable!
Very professional and great with kids!! Our son absolutely loves his classes and it has helped improve his focus and behavior! So happy we found championship martial arts!
Love this karate school so much! Senseis Petersen and Slicker are wonderful and amazing with the kids. My grand daughter loves the class.
Best karate place around! Super friendly, and they always have fun activities and prizes going on also different ways you can earn things! I highly recommend, they also take all appropriate precautions by cleaning, taking temperatures and etc since covid is going on. Also are very welcoming☺️
You find a sense of home and family here with these guys. And each Sensei becomes a part of your family in return. They are wonderful with the children and help motivate and nurture them so that they become all that they can. I have never regretted a minute of the almost 4 years of my child being a part of this amazing place. Thank You Konner & Brandon
The Senseis are great with the kids. They take an interest in the grades at school along with behavoir at school and home. They teach in a way that makes it fun for younger kids. They have great programs for most ages.
My son(6) joined karate here in October 2020. From the start I felt comfortable with the 2 nice gentlemen that are there. They werent pushy about me signing my son up after his 30 day free trial. We love that they always have extra opportunities for our son to do extra events. Our son really likes the buddy challenge that they have been doing monthly for different prizes. We have had a great experience at Championship Martial Arts!!! Thank you Sensei Peterson and Sensei Slicker!!!!
My grandson started here about 6 months ago in the Little Dragons class and has really learned a lot. He asks all the time when he has karate. The monthly lessons have helped my grandson control his focus, patience, physical balance and I am sure many more areas. I love how involved in our community Championship Martial Arts is and how many fun, outside of class opportunities they provide for our families. Sensei Peterson and Sensei Slicker have been rock solid. I am so glad we chose this program.
The academy is always hosting community activities for children; not just those enrolled in the school. They also communicate well with parents about goals and progress, for their children.
We have been learning and growing here for about 2 years. The children love going. They offered awesome Zoom classes and great opportunities for parents to step away while the kids got to play virtually with others in their class.It is a great place for your child to grow!!!
My son attends Championship Martial Arts of Hanover. This has been an amazing learning experience for him. He has learn a valuable lesson which is to treat others with respect. Also he has gained self confidence which has helped him in many ways. The sensei’s are are supportive and respectful. Championship Martial Arts provides many activities for all families. It is a great honor to be part of Championship Martial Arts.
Everything about Championship Martial Arts is 5 star quality! Both Sensei Peterson and Sensei Slicker have become great friends and mentors to myself and both of my kids. They have guided my daughter to finding her strength and confidence. My son is now more focused.
Both sensi Peterson and sensei slicker and the most down to earth easy going gentlemen ever! They have such an excellent point of explaining modern news and problems to the children. My kids now even meditate at home because they love doing it at “ninja school” as they call it.
My daughter feels very welcomed here, and always looks forward to coming back! I love that she learns self respect and self defense and has fun while doing it. Both of the gentleman are friendly, helpful and awesome with the kids! This place kicks butt! 😁
I am 9 and have been going here for over a year now.I never thought I would like Martial Arts so much. My instructors are funny, awesome and they make it a good time in class. My favorite things are the cool moves I learn and the lessons like courage and organization. They always have special camps that are great. -CJR
Best krate program in the area and the BEST INSTRUCTORS and very good with everyone in the classes.
This place is AMAZING! The teachers are great, they keep things interesting for both children and adults. I started classes three months after my son back in 2014, and now after countless classes and numerous belt tests, we are both second degree black belts and looking forward to the future.
Our family has been attending Championship Martial Arts Hanover for little over a year now. I am so grateful for this program as the instructors are supportive, kind, and so welcoming! Our children are learning perseverance, discipline, and life lessons in addition to the self-defense and martial arts skills they learn. CMA stands for Championship Martial Arts but it could also stand for words to describe it:C = CommunityM = MotivatingA = Awesome
Ive been going to championship martial arts for years, and they are very friendly, very productive and very professional. It is a great family friendly environment to train in for kids and adults. They are a very good place to train, and have fun all in one. Highly recommend.
We went to their open house, unfortunately due to the fact we were moving we couldnt join. Our kids had a blast and it definitely gave them a confidence boost for the day. Would recommend to anyone to give it a try.
I put my son in karate 3 years ago to get him ready to enter into kindergarten since he did not attend a preschool. I wanted him to learn structure, patience, kindness and become social with new kids. Little did I know that I would also join along side him. Sensei Slicker is an amazing instructor and knows how to push you into being the best you can be!! Also I never would have thought about joining if it wasn’t for Sensei Peterson! I told him that when I was little i wanted to try Karate, but never had the chance to and he helped me to believe in myself! Becoming a part of this karate family has made my son and I so close and also give me more confidence in everyday life! I am so happy to be here! This is my happy place!
Championship martial arts is GREAT! I am so glad I enrolled my daughter. The senseis are awesome with children. They care about their CMA family. They bring out the best in each kid. They also have fun activities in addition to the regular classes. If you are looking for a place for your child or yourself to participate in this is the place!😊
My Grandson Callen attends Championship Martial Arts of Hanover. He has gained amazing confidence in his abilities and is so respectful of others. Championship Martial Arts has played a major role in the development of this young man I am so proud of. Thank You!
Our children have been members for 3 years now. The Sensei’s really care about each child there and show it in many small (and big) ways.They always have a big smile on their faces when they see you and are very generous with their praise.
Both of my boys have been in it over 5 years. My youngest got his black belt and my oldest is one belt away from black belt. They have taught my boys so much. My one son has autism. He really has learned so much and he has changed so much by going their. They work with the family so much.
This place has been amazing for my son. He has learned confidence and patience since starting as a little dragon. Thank you for all you do and continue to do:)
Super friendly staff. Always answers any questions we have. Great with kids.
My future husband and I have been attending Championship Martial Arts Karate School since October 2019. We have learned helpful knowledge and understanding of the importance of martial arts. We learned that discipline in all aspects of our lives is important for our health and well-being. Sensei Slicker has taught us so much in the 10 months that we have been students. He also taught us that just because we know martial arts doesn’t mean we should use it unless it is truly necessary for our safety as well as the safety of others. We have made so many friends along our journey and look forward to making many more. Great teachers/mentors! Great school! Great family and friends!
CMA is AMAZING! I have two boys who attend ages 3 and 5. They absolutely love going to karate! They have a blast and tell everyone all about their class. The Sensis always have a smile and super welcoming! They are really easy to work with and always willing to help out the karate family where they can. I would recommend anyone who is interested in Karate to check out CMA!
Both of the teachers at Hanover have a great personality and enthusiasm for what they do. Theyre teaching my son to focus his energy.
My kids have been going here for years. Instructors are nice and teach the kids well. Things are a little screwed up now due to the pandemic, but they are trying to make the best of the situation.
I signed my kids up so they had an outlet, well not only do they have an outlet for their never ending energy but theyve made friends. They work with us and even have done one on one classes to get my kids motivated again. Covid put a damper on things but they really helped give us all something to look forward to. The senseis are amazing, helpful, motivating and friendly! My kids look forward to going to class and showing me what they have learned! Im really glad I signed them up! It is clean, organized, they keep you updated, and they are great with the kids!
Absolutely amazing people run this school. Great learning. So helpful. Very friendly.
A year and a half ago I signed my nephew up for classes and he wanted me to take them too. Best decisions we’ve ever made! We love the whole community and have learned so much; not just karate but lessons like respect, honor, responsibility, etc. Sensei Peterson and Sensei Slicker are wonderful, accommodating, encouraging, and all around amazing humans. We are lucky to be learning here!!
I like CMA because it is fun, I made a lot of good friends, it is easy to learn karate there, and there are a lot of cool activities.
My son has been attending CMA for almost 2 years now. He started out in the Little Dragons program and is now in the Black Belt Club as an orange belt. The Little Dragons was a perfect start for him as he would be taught valuable life lessons in a fun way for kids ages 3-5. Sensei Slicker and Sensei Peterson deliver the message with fun ways to engage the kids in activities in a way they will learn and retain the lessons. Now, in Black Belt Club my son took the lessons from Little Dragons with him and is able to apply it and dig deeper with them. He is also learning fantastic self defense techniques and the history that is behind the weapons and techniques. I recommend CMA Hanover to many with kids interested in karate!
As I type this review, I am currently sitting in my parked car at this school. I just finished class a few minutes ago and left the dojo to find one of my senseis giving one of his students a very serious talk about bullying. Ive been going to this school for 8 years. This is one of many conversations I witnessed from the sidelines throughout the years. This school truly cares about their students, their lives, and carrying CMA values outside the school as well as in the classroom. My teachers are family to me and to every other student in their care. A family that kicks together, sticks together. If you are not family oriented, this is not the school for you. The CMA family cares deeply about each of their students and seeing them succeed. I would never consider going to any other karate school, and hope you dont either.
Championship Martial Arts is the best decision Ive made for my 10 yr old daughter. She has learned so much in the year and a half shes been going. Her self confidence went through the roof. A total 180 from when she started. She loves her Senseis. They understand life and work with you anyway they possibly can. Even through everything thats been going on with the pandemic the Senseis worked so hard to keep up the enthusiasm with zoom classes, which were great! Thank you Championship Martial Arts for being so awesome and being an awesome part of Toricorns life. We wouldnt have it any other way. 😎😎😊😊
I am currently a student at Championship Martial Arts and I Love it!!!! Our Senseis are the best! I have made new friends and learned a lot!!
My children love going to Championship Martial arts in Hanover, PA! They have learned so much so far including the student creed which states We will use common sense BEFORE self defense and never be abusive or offensive. This has NOT stopped normal sibling rivalry, however they have their family members convinced that they each know the secrets of the Wushi finger hold from Kung-fu Panda! They are great fun at parties, being mysterious and set apart from the crowd as controlled, mature kids for their ages. And a secret is that they wear out their energy quickly and sleep well! Thank you Sensi Slicker and Sensi Peterson!
The teachers are awesome and they are always making classes fun for kids. You can tell they really care about what they do!
I love doing karate with my mom! I love getting my new belts!
My great nephew, Hoyt Ludwig goes there and just loves it.
Welcomed my kiddo on the spectrum and really have a positive environment.
Love this place. Love the Sensei’s . Wonderful atmosphere.
The two sensais are wonderful with young and older kids. They focus on both skills and attitudes like being responsible. Great program. Small lobby. :)
Everyone is super friendly and tuition is fairly priced!
CMA Hanover is a really great place. I put my son in classes first and he absolutely loved it! He has settled down and is now more focused. While sitting there watching him take his classes, I realized I could probably do that. So I joined too. This has helped me so much! It helps me center myself, teaches me great self defense, and motivates me more than anything else has. There are many different classes including weapons training. The instructors are superb. They are super patient (with all of us!) and take everything step by step. They work with the students over and over until everyone has the moves down. Its a great team atmosphere and very family oriented. Thank you Championship Martial Arts!
I have had both my sons enrolled since February. The changes I have seen are wonderful! I see my children learning new skills every time we go to class. Sensei Slicker is a wonderful teacher and works well with everyone, he also recognizes when someone learns differently than others and helps everyone to achieve their goals! The family atmosphere is fantastic everyone helps each other out from moral support to helping learn. The fun extra activities are SUPER fun for everyone cant wait to roller skate next month.
Awesome
Ive been with the Championship Martial Arts family for over 2 years and I love it! My confidence has boosted through the roof and it keeps me stress free and active! :)
The school provides a great atmosphere. I enjoy the exercise I get while learning karate. It is a fun place to be as well.
The class inspires and motivates me, and gives me confidence. It helps me focus and the instructor makes sure we know the lessons. It a good way to make new friends and it is fun.
Championship Martial Arts is awesome! My kids enjoy every class they take. They are learning so many new things. Sensei Slicker has infinite patience and Sensei Peterson has a wonderful personality. I recommend them to everyone.
Me and my fiancé Rick has a great time with the championship Martial arts. We love being with our CMA family. We love our teachers. We love of how we are getting in shape, building self confidence, we want to continue going every chance we have. We do not want to stop, after a few years, after black belts.
I absolutely love Championship Martial Arts. My entire family is enrolled and look forward to coming to classes weekly. I am excited to see what they learn and what they remember each class
Love my Martial Arts family. I recommend this place to everyone. They are a great bunch of people.
Love this place! My sons have been there for a year. My oldest has increased self esteem. They both have made great friends and the Senseis are extremely nice and suppotive.
I used to attend this dojo (stopped because I moved) and I have to say, that this is a wonderful place. I earned my black belt in June of 2016 (one of the first adults to do so in this particular dojo) and it improved my self confidence, my balance, and my stamina. They also work with people of all abilities and skill levels, they took me in as a student almost 5 years ago knowing I had physical limitations, and they worked with and encouraged me despite that.It may be small, and there may only (now) be two senseis teaching here, but thats what makes it so special.
Love this place its amazing so friendly and work with you, care about not only their students but their students family as well, would recommend them to anyone
Love being a part of CMA Hanover! With a family-friendly atmosphere anyone can do the classes, from age 3 and up!
My kids love this place and its convent for me ! Its close to shops, food. Plus the Sensei are amazing!
My son and mom both attend classes. They both love coming and learning new moves. Brayden has made such improvement since he first started.
The kids love their classes. They have learned alot while having tons of fun too! They love Sensi Peterson and Sensi Slicker!
My grandson has an AWSOME time! Making new friends, learning new things and just enjoying all the new things and experiences!
Not a very good place to take your child if she is a little older and just starting out. I guess its a good place if you start your child off when they are 3, but not when they are 6. My daughter really wanted to learn Karate, but soon became frustrated because she did not know anything and everyone else did. The instructor, which there was only 1, didnt really help those that were struggling, nor did he give any one on one instruction. Then my daughter earned a stripe on her white belt (first belt) when she didnt even know anything in Karate. She then became scared anytime he mentioned the word test because she was overwhelmed with not knowing anything.I have to say that this is really not the way to run a Karate studio. Im surprised any of the children know what to do.
I love watching my wife and kids do this and it will be even better when I can participate with them.
I am proud to be a part of CMA Hanover. We pride ourselves on having caring staff and a family atmosphere!
Love the program and the instrutors...very family oriented....building character....highly recommended!
I highly recommend Championship Martial Arts to everyone. My son absolutely loves it and has built a great bond with both of his instructors. What a difference karate has made in him! I couldnt have picked a better place for him to go. Sensei Slicker and Sensei Peterson are both nothing short of amazing!! They are very friendly, outgoing, GREAT with the kids, and are always certain the kids have a blast and leave the dojo with a smile on their faces. Wonderful atmosphere, great skills learned here, and so much more!
My son absolutely loves being a member of the CMA family! His confidence has increased both inside and out of the dojo. The Sensais are wonderful with students of all ages!
This has been such a wonderful experience for our son.
These guys have been awesome. My children have been in the program for 3-1/2 years.
Its lots of fun. It helps with lots of things like Respect and Organization I absolutely love doing it with my mom and two nieces Thank You Sensei Slicker and Sensei Peterson and Sensei Fannon
My granddaughter has been signed up since March 2015. She loves it.
Awesome my daughter loves coming here!!
Michelle,s loves coming to karate class
