The Training Edge - Gym in Williamsville, United States

I have always been interested in martial arts but never found the time or right fit. After about 2 classes, I was hooked. Training Edge constantly is running deals for you to try it out for a month or two to help gauge interest. As far as pricing goes, they seem to run on average with other schools in the area. The atmosphere is always clean and inviting and not enough room to list all the positives about the staff. They are extremely positive and encouraging, you are greeted by name at the door. As a 42-year-old mom with bad knees I was skeptical whether I could do these classes, but they very much meet you where you're at in terms of age, ability and limitations. I never feel any pressure to push myself to the point of harm, but lots of positive encouragement to push myself to be my best. As a woman, learning self defense techniques is both beneficial and fun; I hope I never need them but if I do I will have them. I can't say enough good things about the place. I always feel welcome and accepted in my third space and have met many new people. This is one of the first times I've found an exercise regiment I'm excited to do. I feel stronger and more confident every time I leave the dojo.

This by far is the best place to train. Not only do you build confidence, the sensei's make the class fun. Also, many places are judgmental. From the first day I walked in, I was not judged. I was encouraged. I totally recommend the training edge.

This place is phenomenal!!!!! My girls and my second home!!!!! Karate has helped build critical life skills alongside physical fitness for both my kids!! It has helped with their motor skills development, heightened focus, and enhanced self-esteem through structured belt achievements!! I could go on and on! I could also talk non stop about the incredible staff here!!!!! The motivation, positive energy and life lessons they teach are unmatched!!! We adore the training edge!!!!!

Our family has trained together here at the Training Edge for about six years now. It is such a positive environment and the culture of the school is inclusive to all. Everyone challenges and helps each other to grow and to become a better person. There is a great sense of community. We highly recommend the training edge for not only great exercise but a truly life changing experience.

I just passed my black belt test at TTE, so I speak from personal experience. If you are looking for an easy path to a black belt, this is not the place for you. If, however, you are looking for dedicated instructors, strong community, and a process you can trust, then I cannot recommend TTE higher. You will challenge the context that you have created for yourself, even if you have some martial arts background. From padsets, to combative training, to sparring, your world will evolve, all within an environment that encourages you to reach higher. That encouragement comes by example from those around you, rather than by rote or demand. It is infectious. Come join us and spread the confidence that comes with pushing yourself to places you had no idea you could go.
