TL;DR: One of the best martial arts schools I’ve ever attended (which is a lot). Mr Barrios is super knowledgeable, and a great teacher. Very strong focus on having the basics down which slowly build up towards more complex drills. Highly, highly recommend.

I’ve been taking kickboxing classes at Barrios for about 6 months now and absolutely love it! All of the coaches are knowledgeable and helpful and the facilities are always clean. Highly recommend

Carlos, Allan and the Barrios instructors are professionals and amazing with the kids. We were referred to them by other families at our school but had to wait till our son was 3 to bring both kids. Wish we would’ve just enrolled our daughter sooner instead of waiting for lil guy to be 3.

My 6 year old loves Barrios! It’s such a joy to see him learn the Hapkido Creed, develop his respect for adults and maturity for learning, and meet his own goals of successfully earning sequential belts.Shoutout also to Mr B and Clare – they’ve created a wonderful community of families. It was special to see Mr B demonstrate his black belt skills and show the kids how to continuously strive for more skills.

I would, and have recommended BMA to anyone that wants to find a great martial arts studio to take their kids. We couldn’t be happier with Barrios Martial Arts.

Our son started at Barrios Martial Arts when he was 3 years old, and now at a robust 4.5 years old, he’s got some incredible control over his body and mind. Even his preschool teacher asked me, “Does N do martial arts? I can tell by the way he handles his body!”

What I like most about BMA is its culture. This is a SAFE space for LGBTQIA+ kids. Of course, that includes adults but I want to mention the kids here because that is what stands out and what I think is most representative of what Master Barrios and the other instructors have done with this studio.
