What Parents Have To Say About Us!

"Sensei Price and his school (Charlotte Martial Arts Academy) are the best things that could have ever happened to my son Nicolas and me. Nicolas joined the Little Dragons program in 2001 as a four-year-old, and we've been proud members of the CMAA family ever since. In the two years that he spent with the Little Dragons, Nicolas grew into a self-confident child at ease with the world and himself. He also learned a lot of leadership skills for life, and Sensei Price's magnetic personality made it fun. So much fun that Nicolas and I are now in the intermediate class together. I didn't think I would learn as much as Nicolas did, but was I ever wrong! I enjoy building martial arts skills in a two-generational setting and watching my son improve alongside me, and the Sensei has taught this old dog new tricks--even as far as teaching goes (I have eighteen years of experience teaching at the college level). I used to hate exercising, but now I regret the days that I don't work out in one way or another. Thanks to the self-discipline I learned at CMAA, I ran my first marathon earlier this year. Nicolas and I are looking forward to our future growth as people and martial artists under the leadership of Sensei Price. Thank you for all you do for your students."
