Our Clients say...

Our customers are truly awesome. Discover what they're saying about Changing Lives Martial Arts located locally here in Virginia Beach and Chesapeake.

The professional and friendly staff takes a very personal interest in the development of all students and knows their names by the end of the first workout. The reality-based Krav Maga classes are fun and challenging for students of all skill and fitness levels. After only three months I've lost 22 pounds and, more importantly, I feel more energetic and confident in my ability to use what I've learned and my surroundings to my advantage if the need presents itself. I strongly recommend CLMA to anyone aiming to boost their physical fitness and feel great about themselves.

KIDS ARE CLASSIFIED AS OBESE

Children need our support. We work hand in hand with parents to ensure our students make the right choices. At Changing Lives Martial Arts we work with each student one on one with support when needed.

Focus & Concentration

Concentration is akin to a muscle that requires consistent exercise to grow stronger. Martial arts equips kids with strategies to enhance their ability to focus and maintain attention. Schoolwork demands extended periods of concentration, and participating in martial arts requires even greater focus. Developing these skills fosters self-confidence and positive self-esteem as students learn and improve.

Enhanced Self-Control & Self-Discipline

Impulsiveness is common among young children. Teaching them self-control and self-discipline is crucial. Children equipped with self-control and self-discipline can better navigate life's challenges. Martial arts serves as an excellent platform to teach students these valuable traits.

Better School Grades

Martial arts training shares a significant goal with educational training: inspiring attitudes and actions that mold students into motivated, confident, capable, and self-reliant leaders. In school, high-test scores lead to good grades, and martial artists develop skills and qualities essential for tackling diverse challenges, including discipline, self-control, self-esteem, self-worth, courtesy, and respect for others, all contributing to academic success.

This is a GIFT that will last a lifetime through school, college and into the work world.
