During our 8th year at Hiawatha's, the school has become like a home away from home, for my 13 y.o. son and me. The energy and positive supportive environment keep us eager to attend several times weekly. (Can you imagine?!!) This is a school where children and adults, both athletic or "not so much" yet, mainstream or with LEARNING DIFFERENCES, are welcomed, patiently encouraged, infused with confidence and enthusiasm, perserverance, learn self control and BECOME ABLE to achieve personal and fitness goals. Everyone CAN even earn colorful belts, that go well with white leisure outfits! I plan to become a Black Belt by my 60th birthday! (I'm not about to let my son think he can take me!) I am proud of the academy's warm inclusive, atmosphere, as well as it's rigorous Tae Kwon Do standards, rockin' kick-boxing and bag classes with a little BJJ thrown in! SO DON'T WORRY YOU HARDCORE MMA TYPES, THEY GOT SOMTHIN SOMTHIN FOR YOU TOO... Thanks Hiawatha, Steve, Lucy, Carolyn, Ellen, Professor, Andy, Juan et. al. (Not unlike you & me, BUT MORE FIT & ENTHIASTIC.) "Come on in, the " PROVERBIAL "water is fine! " See ya at the DoJang....

Hiawatha's is a wonderful place. My son has been going for six years and has enjoyed every minute of it. The instructors and staff are a great combination of serious and fun and make the classes truly enjoyable.
Hiawatha's Martial Arts is an amazing school. The environment fosters personal growth and self awareness. My son loves the school and staff. He was once shy and filled with doubt and now is filled with confidence and pride in his achievements. Thank You for all you do for our children.
Hiawatha's Marthial Arts is wonderful. Hiawatha, Steve and whole staff is positive and inspiring. You can see how much the children enjoy learning the techniques and how much Hiawatha and Steve enjoy teaching them. My son has been attending classes for 3 1/2 years and has loved every minute of it.
My family and I have been going to Hiawatha's Martial Arts School for ten years. My children have learned the art of tae kwon do, and while doing so have learned self-discipline, patience and respect. Through hard work they have gained mental toughness and self confidence, all while having fun. Hiawatha and Steve are both terrific teachers and role models. Plus, their kick boxing class is the BEST work out I have ever had!
The Tae Kwon Do school at Hiawatha's is terrific. Hiawatha and Steve are great with the kids and there is a very positive atmosphere here. The student instructors are also wonderful role models for the younger children.
The Cardio kickboxing class here is the best! I highly suggest it. The atmosphere and instructors get you working you're hardest (I've never worked as hard as I have in this class!). It is fun, and you feel amazing after you excercise. Everyone at Hiawatha's is great!
Even though it is early in the morning going into this environment is amazing! The instructors are ready to push you are your hardest pace and give you the best workout possible! The class though hard gets you in shape and the people involved in it are open and friendly! A huge plus is that it is extremely affordable! This class is for anyone looking to get in shape and enjoy themselves at the same time!
This is a wonderful class! I go every sunday and it is affordable. The instructors are great, the workout is killer (and very fun!), and people are very friendly. I recommend this class to anyone who wants to have fun while getting in shape!
I am hooked on the Cardio Kickboxing class @ Hiawatha's, it is a great high energy class that I look forward to each Sunday morning. Great group of people, a ton of fun and a Killer workout!
Best Birthday Party Ever!! That is what my friends said to me as we watched our kids learn Tae Kwon Do moves, "attack" the instructors using their new moves, and play on a bouncy castle. The instructor, Steve, and his helpers were amazing with the kids and they did everything for me. I got to sit back and enjoy watching a bunch of 5 and 6 year olds have a blast! Many thanks to Hiawatha, Lucy, Steve and the crew!
