"Awesome learning, the only dojo that gives a 30 min personal lesson along with 3 regular classes weekly! Teaches self confidence, karate form, sparring, weapons and helpful for all ages ! Highly recommended!"

"We couldn't be happier with Sensei Anthony and the amazing support from all the instructors; our son has flourished in ways we never dreamed possible, and they've truly become like family to us—if you’re considering a martial arts journey for yourself or your kids, we strongly encourage you to join this wonderful community! "

-Misty G.

"I've been training at the KC North dojo for about 2 years now and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. At Aplomb Martial Arts they treat you like more then just a student, they treat you like family. Sensei Anthony makes sure that every student gets the best experience possible."

-Adin M.

"I went into my free trial class nine months ago with zero martial arts experience and no idea what to expect. Sensei Anthony and the other students were so fun and welcoming, I was hooked after that first class. With the help of an instructor and class structure, I've seen great improvements in myself both physically and mentally from my time spent at the dojo. For me, it is truly therapeutic."

-Alex S.

"I started taking my 3 year old daughter to Sensei Anthony about a year ago. I honestly just thought it would be something fun to try out but didn't really think we would stick with it when we went to the trial class. I sure was wrong about that. My daughter loves it so much and Sensei is very patient and encouraging to her. I feel like this is going to teach her some amazing skills as she gets older. I don't think anyone else could have kept her attention as long as he has and been so patient all while teaching her some skills."

-Angie S.

"My family away from my own family! Sensei Anthony is a fantastic person to have in your corner and I leave every class in a better mood!!"

-Bailey Y.

"If you are looking to learn self-defense, combat wrestling, Tai Chi, Kenpo, and weapons, Aplomb Martials is a great place to go. The KC North location is a great facility to attend because Sensei Anthony is a great instructor. He listens to people and develops classes and personal training sessions to fit the need of the students. I have greatly enjoyed working with and continuing my martial arts growth with him."

-Bruce H.

"Great dojo. Sensei Anthony and all other sensei do an amazing job pushing everyone to do their best. Signed up to get back in shape and bond with my kids, staying for all of the above and more."

-Ivan M.

"Sensei Anthony and his family have made such a positive impact in my life. The KC north dojo has a vibe like no other. Family oriented, friendly, fun and I know I matter. I’ve learned so much in a short amount of time and am more fit than ever! I highly recommend for all ages and sizes. A great thing to be apart of! So glad I joined!!"

-Jessica J.

"This has been a great opportunity for our whole family! Sensei Anthony and his team are fantastic."

-CE

"Sensei Anthony at the north location is amazing! He is calm and patient. He is great with our 6 year old who comes with that "only child territory" I can't thank him enough! He has worked with us every step of the way. I admire his love and passion for the sport and way of life. Highly recommend!!!"

-Kimberley B.

"An amazing environment where at any level of martial arts it is comfortable to come in and learn. Sensei makes it fun and challenging and works with you at whatever level you are for the goals you want to achieve! Super glad we found the AMA family!"

-Nathanael G.

"Absolutely amazing. They are so inclusive that no matter where you are coming from they make you feel like you can succeed."

-Samantha D.

"Enrolled my 10 year old son a little over 6 months ago and have seen consistent improvements in both discipline and ability. The experience was impressive enough that I joined the dojo myself to help attain my fitness goals and learn a new skill. Would recommend Sensei Anthony to/for anyone."

-Shane S.

"Great People, A Great Work-Out. I love the gym and the people. Highly recommended 👍"

-Shavon B.

"My son has been a part of the AMA family for 2 years now. The Dooley's are an amazing family of people who just want to see your child succeed and have fun! The teaching style is very strict and organized, in the best possible ways. My son has grown so much confidence and self discipline and I owe a whole lot of it to this place. WE LOVE AMA NORTH!"

-Allison S.

"I joined a year ago, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. I initially joined after watching my youngest have fun for 6 months, but I immediately found a multitude of benefits beyond bonding with my son. It has given me confidence in my work where I have to present in front of various size audiences, and helped me conquer tasks that felt daunting before. I’ve lost 10lbs of fat and gained muscle definition. I am in the best shape of my life, both mentally and physically. Plus everyone there is so friendly and welcoming and has quickly become close friends. I look forward to going each week and growing. Whether you need exercise discipline or confidence in doing hard things, this is the place! I highly recommend KC North Aplomb Martial Arts!"

-Casey B.

"Every sensei gives such great attention to each kid and meets them at whatever age and experience level they are. Our kid loves both his classes and personal lessons and always looks forward to working towards his next belt or tournament!"

-Elizabeth C.

"We’ve been part of Aplomb Martial Arts in North Kansas City for over 2 years now, as a father and daughter, and it’s been an incredible experience. This dojo is much more than just a place to learn karate — it’s a place to train both body and mind. The instructors emphasize respect, teamwork, and discipline, which makes it a great environment for kids and adults alike. They also organize wonderful events like tournaments and belt tests, which give students the chance to challenge themselves and grow with confidence. We couldn’t be happier to be part of this community. Highly recommend Aplomb Martial Arts to anyone looking for a place to train and grow together!"

-Fernando D.

"APLOMB KC North Dojo is great!! When my son started training he struggled with his balance, physical conditioning, and mental focus. After a year and a half he has grown so much. He is stronger mentally and physically. Sensei Anthony, his family, and the rest of the instructors are great leaders. They are excellent at creating an inviting family atmosphere focused on personal growth and perseverance. We were so impressed that my wife has also joined APLOMB KC North Dojo. I am very proud of my wife and son, and I am extremely grateful and honored that we are a part of this wonderful dojo family."

-Jason B.

"Awesome for all ages! Instructors know what they are doing and do a good job teaching. My son is 6 and enjoys every class! "

-John K.

"This dojo is top tier! My teenager has been attending this location for more advanced lessons. Sensei Anthony is not your average instructor. He is tough and commanding, but has such a positive and powerful influence on all his students, from kids to adults. He cares about helping them become better and better at martial arts and all around respectful members of society. ❤️ our AMA family at all locations!"

-Mae B.

"Nice family owned dojo. I take the adults class and it is way more fun than going to a traditional gym. Students have varied fitness levels but we all gain from it - we all encourage each other and have a good time."

-Michele W.

"My son, Noah, has been with them for a year now, and it's been a great experience for him. Everyone is so nice, and Sensei Anthony and the other instructors do a wonderful job of helping the kids keep up."

-Michelle L.

"Love this dojo! Love this Sensei! Great confidence booster and great life skills."
