I took a martial arts class in college and loved it. Unfortunately, I've been searching for a place that I could believe in ever since that I felt was worth the time, money and effort. When I found the Warrior's Edge, everything clicked. The teachers were great, the lessons were empowering and I knew right away that this was the place for me. It was like joining a family. Everyone was (and is) so outgoing and helpful, the dojo feels like a 2nd home. There is a welcoming feeling as you enter. The lessons are down to earth and relative to things that might happen and the goals that are set are attainable for people of all ages. The kids have fun, the teens and adults learn and invest their time and energy in the dojo's belief system while they learn self defense techniques and better themselves on multiple personal levels. They offer private lessons, workshops and retreats as well! This place literally has everything you can ever want out of a martial arts studio. I promise that you will NOT be disappointed.

I can honestly say that this was one of the worst experiences I have ever had with a dojo. I would strongly recommend that you think twice before signing up at this location.



At first, my son was learning a lot and progressing nicely. Like others he was gaining skills and confidence. Soon, for whatever reason, that slowed down. Back in October of 2013 I brought this to the dojo's attention and he emphatically stated that my son could get his black belt by February or March of 2014. Well, my son did everything he was supposed to and that day came and went.



I brought this up with the dojo and he stated that he would have someone work with him regularly to make sure that he would get his black belt by the end of summer. Well that came and went as well. Again I brought this up to his attention as others that started at the same time as him had long since gotten black belts. He assured me that my son would definitely get his black belt before another person "do to level of immaturity" of that other person. Yet, much to my surprise, a couple of months later I walk in to find out that my son still does not have a black belt and the other person does.



So I just have one question. Is he just a liar that will do or say anything to make a buck? Or is he just totally incompetent as part of the responsibility for making sure people advance rests with him?



In either case my son (and myself) have been lied to and jerked around. I expect better from any dojo which is why I ask you to stay away from this one.

This place is the best, not only is it for those who want a black belt, this is a place to build confidence and meet new friends. I am honored to have meet everyone, and I love how supportive the atmosphere is. Everyone is like a huge family, so thank you Mr. Eichenberg.

Warrior's Edge teaches practical self-defense for ALL age levels. The instructors do an excellent job of making the atmosphere serious but also fun which makes for an excellent learning environment. The instructors are also very friendly, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. Over the past four years, Aiki Ninjutsu has made me into a more confident and capable person and I highly recommend that you give it a try!

Been here with my two girls, 6 and 8, for almost two years. Never anticipated the extended family we joined, everyone is excited to teach and learn from each other. The art itself far exceeds anything I had learned in Tae Kwon Do and applies to the real world far better in both practical defensive arts and spiritual development. I look forward to many more years with this school.

Are you looking for practical, real world self defense? How about learning to better yourself and your life through the lessons learned from those self defense classes? I know that's what I was looking for, and found much, much more training at Warrior's Edge! Training in this martial art really helped me become a more confident and empowered person. If you are looking for a positive environment, with friendly people, and are looking to train with the best, then look no further!
