Wonderful school! Teachers are amazing, it has a great family atmosphere and my son has learned so much. I would highly recommend that anyone interested in martial arts for yourself or your kids check it out.

Degerberg teachers provide way more instruction than just martial arts. They help the kids with guiding values, discipline, interaction and problem solving...I have so many food things to say about their instructors and the great way they run their organization. They're so worthwhile, that I'll continue to pay them even during this pandemic. The Detloff Family Loves Degerberg Academy!

Degerberg Academy is an awesome institution of learning. My son takes karate here, which begins as a group called the “ninja turtles.” Lessons have taught him self discipline & respect. As a child who struggles with fine motor, concentration skills and behavior, mixed martial arts has helped him improve in all of those areas. Classes have temporarily been moved to zoom due to covid, and we are still finding the classes to be helpful, inspiring & a great way to build confidence & get that extra energy out. I’d recommend DAMA to anyone looking to build skills personally or for their youngsters!
