My daughter started with Legacy Martial Arts & Fitness last year at the age of 5. In this short year, I’ve seen a tremendous improvement with her confidence. She takes pride in her uniform and the fact that she’s leveled up twice since she’s been there.

The staff is very professional! They are friendly and patient with the kids, yet direct - which is exactly what my little one needs. I cannot be more satisfied with the services provided.

Legacy Martial Arts & Fitness is amazing. We have been part of the family for over two years. My daughter has learned and grown so much. We anticipate the opportunity for her younger siblings to train here, too, once they are old enough.

This place is home for us. It is it community/tribe. We moved to Charlotte at the beginning of COVID. As a homeschooling mommy, we struggled with finding our place and footing. I am not even sure how I ran across Legacy, but it never came up in my search for activities for my daughter. However, this day it immediately popped up in my search and was just a few minutes from us. I filled out the online form to audit class. Myesha called me the same day. She really sold it for me.

The instructors are world-class. The children are their own tribe and all come from great homes. The head instructor is amazing at his crazy and loves the children. They also know what is needed to push the kids to become better versions of themselves.

My daughter had been taking class since 12/22 and has evolved so much during her time there. I am excited that she was selected for the State and US tournament team. This is great experience for my 9-year-old.

Today, I took a women's self-defense class and strongly encourage other women to do the same. With Charlotte being a major hub for sex trafficking, the skills learned in this class could be the difference in walking away from a potential attack or not.

I am thankful to have found Legacy and literally do not know what we would do without them. Charlotte is not preference, but I refuse to part ways with our family. Thanks Sigung Jay Henderson, Ajarn Shelton Henderson and the rest of the team. We appreciate your contributions to the development of tomorrow's leaders.
