My daughter has been going to this dojo for about 2 months and we LOVE IT. She's 4 and the kids in her class all have a great time. They are learning discipline, getting great exercise, learning self control, and the basics of martial arts. I know she will be a long term student of this school. The senseis are all amazing and the staff is really welcoming. Great dojo

Sensei Bryan and Sensei Lennon make a great instructional team. They focus on the different levels of student engagement during class. They also reinforce the values of self defense while maintaining a safe environment.

Our son has been going to this Dojo since 2019 and everyone to this day has been so sweet, supportive, passionate and professional. Sensei Ibrahim, Sensei Lennon and Sensei Brian always makes sure they're learning while having fun. Our son thoroughly enjoys his time there. He's even attended camp which he absolutely loved. Thank you to everyone at the Dojo and making it a second home for everyone that attends.

There aren't enough words to describe how much I love and appreciate this place! My son has speech delays and low muscle town but after a year here you wouldn't even know he had any issues. He has developed in speech, even learning how to say his numbers in Japanese, and his physical strength has greatly improved. He has learned so much discipline through this place.

My son has been an active member for a long time, and it's been incredibly gratifying to watching his skills and self-confidence grow over the years. The instructors here genuinely care, encouraging the kids to give it their best on the mat and to carry over the lessons they learn into their day-to-day lives.

Our Ultimate Martial Arts & Fitness experience started a year and a half ago when my daughter was 5.5 years old. My interest was solely to add another activity to her Summer line-up, and I thought, why not add karate. I had three Martial Art schools slated to visit before making a final decision (as I do with all activities). We came into their extremely clean school and experienced a great group of senseis. The staff's kid friendly energy matched perfectly with my then 5 year old's energy. She was able to try out a class, and it was infectious! We knew instantly this was the karate school for us. By the end of Summer 2021, it was clear that this would be a staple in her life. The lessons being taught at Ultimate are important life tools for her. The discipline, self-defense, and strength training being taught here is immeasurable. She is now 6.5 y.o, and has earned several "belts." Her confidence and the friendships formed have made her weekly classes something she looks forward to. In short, she loves it here. The parents are all amazing, warm, and wonderful moms and dads. The partnership with our senseis is enthusiastic and collaborative. If you are thinking about starting karate for your little one(s), do it! I can not stress enough the benefits and rewards. Moreover, Ultimate Martial Arts and Fitness is hands down the place to be. I challenge you to stop in and see. I guarantee you and your little one will love it here too!!

Went to a birthday party here for my 5yo and immediately signed up for classes after. The staff was extremely attentive and informative and we’re so excited to start. The classes are very affordable and the schedule is so flexible.

Few dojos really standout when it comes to attention to people with special needs. They offer special classes and mentoring that truly provide a healthy empowerment to all.

My kids have been going for more than a year. They have enjoyed their time there. The staff are so respectful and excellent teachers with the children. My kids have become very flexible and mobile. I'm confident they will find that very beneficial when they grow older; whether they choose to continue karate or not. I recommended my friends to come and they all love the place and their kids love it too. Cannot stress how beneficial this is for the physical and mental well-being.

UMAF Dojo is very clean and organized. Sensei Ibrahim and his staff are amazing. Everyone from the front desk to the main dojo is very welcoming and nice. Instructors are very professional, dedicated and supportive .They teach young kids with kindness and love. My 4 years old daughter recently started here and she loves coming to her classes. Thank you so much for making martial arts for my daughter fun while teaching her discipline and skills that will help her in so many ways throughout her life. I highly recommend UMAF.

Sensei Ibrahim and Sensei Lennon - they seriously make this place amazing. My 6 year old son had been going for a couple of years and he genuinely looks forward to it. At one point over the summer he had to choose between soccer and karate, and it was a no-brained for him. They make you feel like family here and are so inclusive, which I love. I had to pull my son out for a bit because chess tournaments have now taken over his time, but once that slows down, we'll definitely be returning to UMA&F.

We have been at UMAFDOJO for almost five years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. Sensei Ibrahim and his staff really care about every child in their dojo. They have given my daughter self confidence and real life skills, that have helped her grow so much over the years. We highly recommend!

To Lynbrook Ultimate Martial Arts and Fitness. As you’re up the block from us I gave you the benefit of the doubt by trusting you, but you stole my trust because upon our meeting before we did this art classes I told you that we charge $50. A student and we did not even take a deposit from you and usually we would take a deposit from anyone else. Then after we did 2 classes with about 30 of your kids, and then you dare came to my gallery and hand a check for $200. To me and told nonsense stories. Because your kids were here and people saw that you received and signed 6 new students. Look right in this photograph the art materials that we did provide to your kids, stretch canvases, acrylic paint and hours of time mentoring your kids for at least 3 hours, do you think $200. Dollars can even buy art materials, no I don’t think so, my time, all the lights and A/C in our building. I send you a letter and an invoice for the 2 classes that I have done you totally disregard me, I saw at Starbucks one morning and told that you needed to pay me / CASK, you still disregard me. Let me tell you this first I did not give you permission to used me and CASK for your advertising and you didn’t pay for the service that I provided to you and your Martial Arts. I am consulting my lawyer and I am suing you and your Martial Arts to pay the bill and using me and CASK for your advertising that I did not give you authorization! Soon you will receive papers.
