It was a little over a month ago when my daughter Emma attended her first class as a guest. I knew after that first class that this school was something we HAD to be a part of. Not only was the staff so welcoming, and knowledgeable but they made us feel like we were part of the "Victory family". Before Victory my daughter struggled with self-esteem, confidence and discipline. Almost instantly I noticed a change, her first lesson she learned to "believe" in herself, that she can accomplish anything she sets her mind to, one bite at a time (analogy given in class). Emma has also gained communication skill and leadership and it has been very rewarding watching her challenge herself and grow she now has a "YES I CAN" attitude.
I must say Mr. Johnson is a very devoted instructor, in my opinion he’s simply THE BEST!!! He can identify a weakness in a student and turn it into strength, providing positive reinforcement, excellent discipline skills, and self-confidence....... While still being humorous. Another great system unlike any other school is the reward system it keeps the kids focused striving for new goals.
Unlike any other school the character building skills that are taught at Victory are skills that these children will take through life and lead them down a path to success. I am glad we are part of such a positive influential program.

LOVE THE KICKBOXING CLASS! It builds your endurance while getting in shape and having fun. Mr. Johnson is an awesom instructor as he keeps the class motivated.. Excellent class..

My son has been a member of Victory Martial Arts for about a month now. In that short time he has started gaining strength, coordination, and confidence. He is more conscious about what he eats and is really developing a healthier lifestyle!

I LOVE THE KICKBOXING CLASS! A great way to get in shape and build endurance while in a fun atmosphere. I would highly recommend Victory Martial Arts to anyone!

JUST DO IT! Victory Martial Arts has been so much more than I expected. Mr. Johnson makes the demanding workout a little easier through humor and motivational comments. All of the instructors are caring people who take the time to give you personal attention with a smile. I never thought I would look forward to an exercise class, but I look forward to this one.

I'm 25 interested in fitness and I walk 5 miles a day. I have never had the endurance strength of a runner or a swimmer. Since starting at Victory I just feel a great flow. I'm learning something I'm passionate about (Martial Arts) and I know my confidence is improving. I look forward to my classes. I'm so glad I found Victory. Mr. Johnson is quite simply the best teacher and motivator ever.

I have been working with Mr. Johnson for about 3 years now. I was not at all healthy and approaching 50 when I started. Mr. Johnson helped me get my body in shape, encouraged me through the roughest times and pushed me when I was ready for it. I am now in the best shape of my life and I am looking forward to very a active, very happy second half of my life.

I had my reservations starting a kickboxing class at my age (52) since I've been a couch potato all my life! After talking to Mr. Johnson on the phone I was convinced this would be a great place to start. I was not dissappointed, the class is very ïnspiring and the instructors are all very supportive. Even taking time to give me an extra "boost" when needed. I would recommend this center to anyone no matter your age or fitness level, I look foward to going to class every week. Cant wait to be able to complete the whole class and still be able to breathe! Thats my goal this month;)

LOVE THIS PLACE! Our family has been at the school for over a year. Fitness classes are great, you will get a full body work out each time! We cancelled our gym membership because we were getting better workout at Victory. Our family does the martial arts classes also. My son has more self confidence, self esteem, fitness and respect for others. Mr. Johnson is a great role model and the staff at Victory are always friendly, approachable and always eager to help you and make you feel like part of the Victory family. I urge everyone to come by and try the classes, you will not regret it! See you there!

I can think of so many positive things to say about Victory I hardly know where to begin. My 9 yr old daughter started taking classes two months ago and I have seen great improvement in her confidence level and she's growing stronger physically. She exhibits a "can do" attitude now rather than doubting herself. If she comes across a school assignment that is difficult she will work at it until she gets it and won't complain and say "I CAN'T DO IT" as was her tendancy prior to joining Victory. Mr. Johnson incorporates important life lessons, positive reinforcement, fun, enthusiasm, and loads of energy into every class he teaches. Equally important, he has surrounded himself with a wonderful staff who help him make EVERY ASPECT of Victory Martial Arts a great experience. Additionally, I began a Boot Camp with him in late January which I highly recommend for anyone who wants to strengthen and tone. WE LOVE VICTORY MARTIAL ARTS!

I love this kickboxing class. It is a great work out, it motivates and pushes you to reach your goals. Mr. Johnson teaches with great energy, attitude and humor. I walk in burned out from a stressful week and walk out feeling strong and re-energized. I highly recommend this class.

I feel so lucky to have found Victory Martial Arts. Mr. Johnson is a great male role model to have in my daughter's lives. He is amazingly motivational and stresses belief in one's self. In just 2 months I have seen my children's confidence and respect increase. I would absolutely recommend Victory to anyone!

Great school for kids! My 8yo is enjoying his time spent learning new moves, staying healthy, and self defense. Mr. Johnson and the rest of the Victory family really do love their students. I'm personally enjoying the adult kick boxing classes! Great way to show my child that I'm just as committed as he is. Would recommend Victory to anyone!

If Mr. Johnson were running the country, we would have a society with healthy, happy,respectful, confident, grateful and motivated individuals. He is a rare find of a person who is a cut above the best.

GREAT kickboxing class! I've always found kickboxing to be a fun way to get my body back in shape and the instructor, Mr. Johnson, has a great way of keeping the classes diverse to keep you going. I would highly recommend Victory Martial Arts to anyone, older or younger, who is interested in a fun but thorough full body workout!

Recently started the cardio-kickboxing class at Victory. Mr. Johnson does an excellent job keeping the class interesting and fun while still maintaining an intensity and high motivation level. I recommend this class for anyone looking to increase their cardiovascular fitness and overall endurance.

Victory Martial Arts is a wonderful martial arts school. What they do and teach there is just inspiring. I've been with the school for almost a year now and it just keeps growing better and better. I see the kids that come in an over a couple of months they've grown so much. I've seen kids do a 180...someone who's completely shy to someone who's outgoing and always excitable. The kids love it there and so do the parents. Mr. Johnson is a great instructor when it comes to teaching kids AND adults. He knows how to motivate people and just the things he says is just INSPIRING. Victory is like no other martial arts school. They do more than just kicks and punches, they instill values in the kids. Everything they do from traditional forms to personal safety, they bring it back to the life skills. What they do at Victory is Priceless.

Victory Martial Arts in Palm Harbor is a fanatastic school. I have seen a huge improvment in my sons ability to speak clearly and directly. His respect level for his peers and other adults in his life has increased. He also is getting stronger, and he is learning self defense moves and techniques to help him if was ever to encounter any danger. Mr. Johnson and his staff are excellent with the children as well as the adults and I would highly recommend any of the programs that this school offers. They not only are challenging the physical but also they are influencing the positive mental additude that is essential for success.
