Martial Arts

My 9 year old son wanted to try getting back into karate after a few years off. After just moving to town we decided to try out our options. After going to try both dojos in town he told me he wanted to go to Thomson Martial Arts, he wanted to give the "smaller dojo" a try. After a few months I decided that I could benefit from the fitness class there but it didn't fit my schedule at the time so I started karate instead (at 40 years old). Eric was very patient with me while learned and got into shape. Eventually I started sparring as well (you can go to as many karate/sparring/fitness classes in a week as you like) and competed in a competition (something that I never thought I would do). My son has competed several times as well and has done very well thanks to excellent training. We have been going now almost 2 years and I am in better shape now than when I was 20, I have dropped 40lbs and have more energy and focus in every aspect of my life. I highly recommend giving Thomson Martial Arts a try, you won't regret it.

Great karate programs! Good for kids and adults.

Omg I can't believe they are still open I used to go and do Kung fu with the very best master Brian Bateman. it's crazy how to this day I remember the moves wish I could go back and have my kids go their. This place is awesome I Definitely recommend it to the families and all who wish to learn martial arts 🙏🏼

Joined about a year ago. The instructors are world class, and make each class exciting. The style covers everything from kata to full contact fighting. If you are looking for a "real" karate style Kyokushin is for you. Signing up was one of the best decisions I've made in a long time.

The Best this has made a huge difference in my son

Great gym! People there are fantastic.

The kids have felt welcome since the start and look forward to every class. The instruction is top notch and the student to instructor ratio keeps the kids engaged. Highly recommended for kids that need to burn off some energy while learning an important life skill.

My son has been attending Murray's Martial Arts School for a little over three months now. In that short amount of time, his confidence and abilities have increased noticeably. The Senseis do an amazing job working with children with all abilities. They are patient, funny, and energetic. They work hard at pushing the students to do their best all while attending to each child's individual needs. My little guy has grown particularly fond of Sensei Shaun who is funny, attentive, and helps push him beyond his comfort level in a safe and fun way. So much so, that he even talks about him or pretends he is talking to him on the days he does not have class:-) Thank you to all the wonderful staff for all the work you do with my little guy!

A great place to learn how to live life with balance and harmony.

Great Martial Arts Dojo. Ishin-Ryu-Karate. Sensei Mark Shavron is a 5th degree Black belt. Great work with kids and adults.

The music is inspirational, the exercises always change & the members of the class are wonderful supports. Try it, you'll like it.

I went to a tryout class today and it was a great workout. Christian is a great instructor and the class was a blast. Rochester Muay Thai is definitely worth checking out.

Great facility and great coaching. Bedroc is a very family friendly atmosphere and great for all ages. Everyone works as a team and helps each other with technique or motivation. Sensei John and Sensei John Jr have a great way to make sure everyone is involved and understands what they are teaching no matter the class size. I can highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to get into better shape all the way to looking to fight.
