Australian Martial Arts Academy

Wonderful teachers, always happy and firm with the kids. I did a few lessons before I was too ill and everyone is amazing. The people attending classes are open, social, pleasant, and the teachers are fun, funny, and knowledgeable. Plenty of parking and food options while you wait. There is a second hand uniform email on the wall so if you need, get uniforms there before signing up. It gets cheaper per family member which helps and they have family classes you can do with your kids. Plenty of different times to suit your routine. Overall, if you can afford it, it is a great place for you and your children.

100% RECOMMENDED

My two grandkids age 2 and 4 years old take up weekly classes here learning Taekwando. They are having such great fun with other kids in their age range. The staff and instructors are friendly, helpful and well experienced individuals. Parking are ample and the places easy to find using Waze. Highly recommended.

Fabulous team and activity. Great to start at any age. Good for fitness, confidence and mindfulness too. My daughter absolutely loves it.

This is such an amazing place.
The teachers are great!
My son loves to attend his classes and is learning so much.

AMA has been such a great activity for my family. The instructors are so great with the kids and make every lesson fun and definitely something we look forward to each week. The team bring so much energy and really encourage us to push ourselves a little bit further each week. It really is such a community unto itself and everyone has been so welcoming and supportive. AMA is such a great activity for developing confidence, focus, discipline, strength and fitness. We couldn’t recommend it more! Thank you AMA for making this such a great part of our weekly family routine!

It’s a fantastic and fun way to exercise giving you more confidence in self-defence regardless of age/physical fitness. All instructors are friendly, caring and experts in that field. I totally recommend it to everyone.

The staff (and the entire cohort) are unfailingly supportive and friendly. They're great, whether they're handling a young kid who is struggling with focus, helping a new student learning to kick for the first time, or working with an experienced practitioner who just needs a few tweaks to improve their performance.

My son and I are absolutely loving the Academy - wonderful teachers, fantastic values, proper teaching and supportive community. We are with them for the past five years and planning to stay for many more years.

Hi all parents, please let me know if it's fair? I've paid 30 weeks' worth of classes ($660) from January until the end of April. I asked if I could pause the payment so my boy could attend all the makeup classes. When we use up all the makeup classes, will we continue paying?

The staff said no and gave me two options: 1/I have to continue paying to use the paid make-up classes. 2/she will cancel my payment, and I have one month to do all 30 makeup classes.

Which kids can do 30 classes in a month with school and other activities? ! Does that sound fair to you, parents? You have to pay to use what you have paid already, or they will cancel your membership/payment, but then you will technically lose your paid classes because you can't keep up with that many classes in a month? !

I am new to martial arts and it is always daunting to start at a new place. However, AMA was so welcoming and professional. The trainers were attentive, provided guidance and were so encouraging. The adult class made me feel empowered. I cannot wait to continue my training here to become fitter and stronger! Thank you so much AMA - keep up the great work!

Undoubtedly 5 stars. Both my kids have grown up with AMA and one of the best decisions we made in their education program. Great selection of instructors lead by Master Hakan Manav and Grand Master Rıdvan Manav.
At AMA they don't just train physically but also mentally. Regular lectures on motivation and self development, are the proof that it is not just a taekwando Centre but a self development academy. Thank you to every single instructor for your efforts. We wish you many more 40 years to come.

Highly enjoyed training here. Fun and supportive staff to push me physically and mentally! Wide range of classes compared to others that I have tried. One of the best in Sydney.

Awesome team and atmosphere. My kids have shown great physical and social development since starting.
Highly recommended

I have been going to this place for 7-8 years and has helped me a lot over the years. This place has great instructors and everyone is very welcoming. They make sure that no one gets hurt and there is a wide variety of classes you can attend. Tbh it's a really good place and if you are able to spend the amount of money needed to do classes then I definitely recommend it:)

Me and my boys love this place. I love professionalism, great communication and the principals which they share. I like my workouts too. My boys enjoy classes, fun and great teachers. I appreciate family classes where we can be all together and share our time. We are here one month, but they learned a lot of ready. Well done and thank you.

I am doing Martial Arts at the moment and I am only 10 years old. The instructors and staff are lovely and bring energy to myself. I really appreciate the amount of work going into their classes. Even the 1/1 classes. I really enjoy working with all of the staff and instructors to help me get to where I am today. I am a Green Belt thanks to the staff and instructors all around!

Started at AMA with my daughter a couple of years ago. She is now 5 and we have both gained a great deal from going. I am significantly more flexible than I was 2 years ago and she has developed her confidence and discipline. We both love going together and they have a number of excellent instructors with a range of styles.
Much like anything you get out what you put in, but if you are keen and committed and find the right instructor, you will thrive.

AMA is AMA-zing! My husband, two teenage kids and I have been training here for almost four years, and it has been the perfect way for us to stay fit, spend time together as a family and make new friends. The classes are fun, interactive, innovative and challenging, and the instructors are always supportive and encouraging. AMA is all about helping you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals while having fun in the process, and the supportive and inclusive community at AMA will cheer you on every step of the way. As a middle aged student, trust me when I say that you’re never too old or too unfit to start your taekwondo journey. I cannot recommend AMA highly enough!

I started at AMA in June 2019 as a Mum of two young kids with no martial arts experience. I am now a proud red belt and can't thank and recommend the AMA team enough. They are so encouraging, great at what they do, and really create an amazing culture of leadership, respect, positivity and perseverance. I look forward to achieving my black belt and continuing to work with the team and fellow students. I'm so glad I was introduced to AMA.
