What our students say
“Excellent workout and lots to learn. I was hooked after my first class: the staff was extremely helpful and professional, and the lesson plans let students acquire a lot of new techniques quickly. As a female, I found the monthly women’s self-defense seminars extremely helpful.”Miscia Z
“As a generally petite female, I put a great amount of value on the techniques taught in the EMA Women’s Self-Defense program. They’re easy to learn but highly effective, and give me peace of mind. The quality of instruction, the beautiful facility and the commitment to your success is second to none.”Suellen Chui
“Each month we learn defensive techniques specific to women, then practice them with more intensity in a safe, controlled environment. The instructors and students create a fun, supportive environment. EMA has been a great way to train and to meet great people.”Jennifer Fiocca
