Do not go to this place! They are horrible. The screamed at my autistic 8 year old grandson and verbally attacked myself and my 68 year old disabled husband. Were were literally chased out the door while being screamed at and my husband walks with a cane! They should not be teaching or interacting with special needs children or anyone for that matter

I want to start by saying how impressed I am with how the staff at MIMA takes the time to get to know each student and their individual needs. From the second you walk in the door, the pride the owners take in every aspect of their business is apparent. My son is 6 years old and enrolled in the Dragons program. This program offers a positive and structured learning environment for younger children while providing fun and challenging martial arts curriculum. Highly recommend MIMA to any family looking to explore or commit to martial arts!

Do not take your kids to this place. They think they are running a mini boot camp and will single out a child a berate them in front of the entire studio. This exactly the way my granddaughter was treated in her second class. I'm sorry but that's not how you build respect.

We're only on are second week and both my daughter's are really enjoying class. The summer program is an amazing opportunity to get you child into something new that will absolutely benifit them. The owner's are fantastic and very helpful. I fully recommend bringing any child 9-12 to a fun informative class to learn,move and have fun

My son has been to about 30 classes and I have nothing but positive things to say about Master Ross and Mrs. Shelly. They are great with the kids and I’ve personally witnessed so much progress in my son. From the very first day Mrs. Shelly has been extremely helpful in answering any questions I’ve had, to making sure that my son always has what he needs. Master Ross is patient with the kids, and most importantly extremely consistent with their routine allowing them to constantly add onto their skills. They both work extremely hard to bring to our community an absolute asset for children and families at an affordable price. Thank you Mrs. Shelly and Master Ross!

This has been great for my kid. The owners are clearly passionate about what they're doing. They pay attention to the students and get to know them.

We took our daughter here for a few months, I felt the instructor was very unprofessional, and the wife of the instructor was constantly watching the cameras while we were there, she even texted my wife to not let my infant play on the ground while we waited for my daughter to get out of class. For a family friendly studio I wish I could give them zero stars. Has anyone done a background check on these people?

I love coming here to learn how to defend myself. The teaching by Master Ross and Sensei Maison is amazing and I learn so much. I have also made new friendships and had new experiences thanks to this place. Definitely recommend it.

Absolutely fantastic studio!
Epic Masters & staff who are extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of Jujutso as well as life!
We are a homeschool family and the many class times offered are so awesome! Our 6 year old absolutely loves every class!
Highly recommend!

My Island Martial Arts has been fantastic for my son! Master Ross is an exceptional instructor and has more patience than any one man should have! The environment is welcoming and the teachings are well thought out with progression at his pace. My son looks forward everyday to learning and progressing his skills and I love the respect and life skills he is learning each class.

We love it!
My boys have been apart of MIMA with Master Ross for a little over a year now, and they both have such a great time. They have both learned so much from him and Sensei Mason. Shellie is always so warm and welcoming.
We love being apart of the MIMA family, and definitely suggest them if you or your family are interested in martial arts.

Very poor experience with owners. Grandchildren took classes for less than 1 month. Stopped due to teacher’s inexperience with grandchildren’s disabilities. Parents were assured they understood disability and were capable of providing lessons.

If I could give zero stars I would. Avoid this place at all cost. The lady who runs this place is absolutely atrocious. Not only do lighters fall on the mat during "tiny dragons" from the master but the "no contracts" is completely false advertising because you sign a "membership agreement" which is in fact a contract. Only was there for a couple months and it was absolutely ridiculous. Much better places in Merritt Island and surrounding area for much less. So happy we found a studio with real training and my children having a great experience much unlike this place.

Loved Master Ross and Mason, the wife unfortunately ruined this place for our family, making our daughter feel uncomfortable. Wish the situation was different.
