“MAFF is my favorite place to workout! I just completed my first 6 week challenge and feel great! I went from not working out at all to going to 5 workouts a week and actually looking forward to them! The challenge was a great kickstart to a new lifestyle and I couldn't be happier! The staff and coaches are amazing and always willing to help”

“The kickboxing classes in alignment with the bands classes really help to work all those muscles we tend to forget about while also building flexibility and a lot of strength and power! And it is SO MUCH FUN! MAFF is unlike any "gym" or workout routine I've ever witnessed. It has truly changed my life. In my first 3 week evaluation I lost 4% body fat, and 7 lbs! I am looking SO great and see the changes every single day.”
- Jesse S.
“I started with the KUT program in July 2010 and in 6 months I've lost 65 lbs and feel great. Maff is truly my new "family" and I am now committed to getting my Black Belt!! It's as much fun as it is hard work.”
- Mark S.
“My journey at MAFF first began with the KUT fitness program that helps you set and reach your goals. After that, I tried a free month of Martial Arts and ever since then I've been hooked! I love coming to the dojo, it's a place where you can train your body and your mind with friends and family.”
- Karla H.
“I expanded my martial arts training to include a fitness regimen that uses the resistance bands classes that are taught here. Master Wheaton said that bands might be the best form of exercise that there is - I must say that after three months, I am in great shape and look forward to those classes as much at the martial arts classes in the evening.”
-Mark S.
“I love the fitness classes, especially bags. It's been a ritual for me for 3 years and I still look forward to it. In 45 minutes I get a full body work out and sweat like crazy. It's a fun, positive atmosphere and very empowering! The instructors are great, the work outs change to keep your mind challenged.”
- Jennifer J.
“Kickboxing is FUN! I do NOT think of myself as a kickboxer but I go slowly to try to learn the right way and the teachers are supportive and patient with my lack of coordination - ha!”
