KRU Training is a wonderful organization lead by a kind, dedicated, and skilled leader. Master Ace encourages discipline and hard work, focuses on the importance of detail and form, and nurtures the souls of our kids. He emphasizes team work, but rewards the individual effort. He truly cares about each student and it shows. Not only is Master Ace an amazing teacher , but also an amazing person. I would highly recommend KRU Training to any parent!

The trainers are dedicated and so skilled at teaching martial arts. In just 3 training sessions my son has gained confidence and help with focusing issues. I have never been so impressed with a school like this one. It is a game changer and looking forward to see weekly progress with my son. He looks forward to going to class and his face lights up just talking about his teacher Ace.

I am proud to be a KRU training member. Master Ace has great pride in what he has to teach you. He is the definition of what a martial artist is not only as a teacher but also as a person. He is a very thorough patient teacher that brings out the best in all people in his presence. He genuinely cares about all his students. Not only does this school build strength and conditioning, but it also builds character and focus while perfecting your technique and unlocking your true potential. You cannot ask for anything else in a school whether you are looking for Muay Thai, Grappling, or Kali there is no other school like this in the area. It is a very welcoming environment and they treat everyone like they are part of a family. I can't even begin to explain the amount of gratitude I have towards Master Ace, Coach Kris, Coach Figs, and Coach Eric for teaching me everything they know and truly believing in me.
