The TAMA Dojo Reviews

"Our family has been at The Tama Dojo for six years now. It is the best decision we ever made for our boys. We have all four of our boys enrolled at The Tama Dojo. It has helped them in so many ways. Being a martial artist has boosted their self-esteem immensely. It also has taught them discipline, respect and how to defend themselves. This is important to me as parent of all boys. It has carried over to all areas of their lives including school. They enjoy going to class every week and have made so many friends there as well. The owner, Shihan Mario Mastro, has been such a great role model for my kids as well. I would never consider going anywhere else."

Thank you for the birthday wishes! The card you sent is thoughtful and greatly appreciated. I also wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for everything. It was exactly a year ago, last August, that I started training under you. My training has been everything that you promote and more! The cardio and conditioning alone have been worth it. Along with a better diet, I have lost over 20 pounds since I started training at your dojo. But more than that, the confidence and difference in mindset make me better at my job and safer on a daily basis. Secondly, the training and knowledge that you offer is second to none! I tell my wife all the time that your dojo is like a library; the information is there, I just have to show up to learn. And lastly, the general atmosphere and sense of family that you've created at the dojo is addicting. The group of instructors, adults, and teens that I train with each week, not to mention the parent-child class, really push me to not only be a better martial artist but a better person as well.

Thank you again for all of your time over the past year and for all that you do for us students and parents!

Our son Derek has been participating in karate classes at the Tama Dojo for just

under 2 years now and he loves it!! Shihan Mario and his staff are very friendly,

accommodating and knowledgeable and we’ve seen a noticeable improvement in

our son’s discipline and behavior since becoming a karate student. We’re very

happy we enrolled him at the Tama Dojo!!

We want to express our deepest appreciation for the strong impact and influence the instructors and Tama Dojo Community has reflected onto our children. 

Our two children participate in classes at the Dojo.  We’ve been involved with them for 5 years now and continue to commit to the program.  The classes have been great for discipline, confidence, coordination, focus, structure, along with the many other positive values they incorporate into their program.  They make the classes fun as they teach and make my kids look forward to going each week.

My son has attended the TA-MA DOJO for ten years. We originally enrolled him to help improve his self-confidence especially since he was not very successful with traditional sports. Over the years since being enrolled at the TA-MA DOJO he has learned lessons that not only apply to the boundaries of the dojo, but real life as well. I can now proudly say that my son is a First Degree Black Belt who still enjoys learning Martial Arts and attending the TA-MA DOJO.

If you are looking for an amazing experience for your children, Tama Dojo is where it's at! Sheehan Mario and his instructors are all amazing. My son looks forward to going to class every week!

We started yesterday and my son has been begging all day to go back. Mario is very informative and makes you feel at home. Very clean. We are glad we joined!

Hands down one of the best schools around. Great instructors and the students have to earn their belts thru very hard work.

Great place my kids enjoy it immensely. The head instructor really cares about each student and pushes them to succeed.
