Quest Martial Arts

We decided to celebrate a dual birthday (my eldest and my youngest) at Quest and it was EPIC! The kids had so much fun and we parents loved watching. Our boys said that their favorite was cutting the cake with a samurai sword! My favorite was NOT having to set up, clean up, or serve cake or pizza. What an amazing thing it is to sit back and enjoy your own children’s birthday party!

I would have to disagree with the prior comment that gave Quest only one star! The team of instructors have been nothing short of amazing with my son! The transformation in his confidence, manners and overall attitude is remarkable. We all have to remember this is a business and staff has to get paid! I have never felt pressured to attend any extra classes and I have found master Lawrence to be approachable and down to earth along with his staff.

If you want to go a place where they will marketed to at the end of every session, go here. It’s is so annoying to hear «Master» Lawerence or his staff pitch a deal of what they want to sell at the end of every session. This place is all about the money and jamming in as many kids into their classes as possible.
«Master» Lawerence needs to check his ego and arrogance. Also, many of the reviews here are fake.
In response to Gunther’s feedback, let me tell you that not only does the parking at Quest lacking, but parents need to park on the street and next door at Del Taco because «Master» Lawerence (the same person Gunther insists is «HUMBLE») chooses to occupy prime customer parking spaces with his dated Porsche. Any considerate business owner would put his customers first by parking their own car out if the way. If that is what you call humble or considerate, that is pretty sad.

My 6 year old son has been attending Quest for a couple of months and he absolutely loves it. His confidence, focus, and all around attitude towards EVERYTHING has changed. His grades have improved and each class just simply makes him a better kid. Each instructor genuinely cares about each student and without sounding cliché …they truly have a special way of teaching. As a Kindergarten teacher I am in awe at each class of how amazing each instructor really keeps the class fun and a learning experience all at the same time. I can’t say enough about Quest! Honestly, it’s a hidden gem in the Valley. THANK YOU QUEST!

Our son Nathan has been at Quest Martial Arts for 2 years now. All I can say is that it’s been the best decision we’ve made. He has shown tremendous improvement physically, mentally and even his emotional well-​being. Thanks to the instructors who are not only the best at what they do but also treat the kids like their own. I have been a witness to how they’ve shown genuine care and concern for the kids and that says a lot for me.
Thank you Quest Martial Arts for making a big difference in my son’s life. Glad to be a part of your family.

Quest is the place to be. The instructors are great, kids and adults love what they do in class. The discipline and enthusiasm can be seen from the first visit there. Our son has been there for over three years and loves it. If you are looking for a martial arts school, look no farther.

My 6 ½ year old daughter has been attending Quest for a few months now. I guess I will begin with how SHE feels about it (based on what she tells me and what I’ve observed). Pretty much after every class, she looks up at me with a big smile and asks things like, «Did you see me do the _​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​??» She feels so proud of herself. Or during class I’ll see her laugh about something funny the instructor said. Most importantly, she appears determined to follow instructions and to try her best, even when she makes a mistake. The instructors are great at encouraging students to keep trying, and they make the kids feel good about themselves no matter what. I think that’s one of the most important things.
Now let’s talk about how I personally feel about Quest. Let me just say that I love all the instructors. They are simply amazing with kids. I love that they teach kids respect, focus, and discipline, just to name a few. Because not only do they teach them to apply them in class, they encourage them to do the same at home. LOOOOVE IIIIIIT!!!

My son Jayden has shown a lot of improvement and it’s all thank to QUEST MARTIAL ARTS!!! The instructors are great. They work well with the kids. They teach the kids how to remain focus, self control, discipline, bullying etc. My son has learned a lot in the 2 years he has been there. He has been student of the month at his school. I have received good feedback from his teachers, family members and friends He works well with others and loves to help everyone. My son wasn’t bad I just wanted to put him in something that will benefit him in the future and it is paying off. Thank you QUEST MARTIAL ARTS.

My son Joey has been attending Quest Martial Arts since January. He is four years old and has been learning so much. ALL the instructors are AWESOME. Joey is learning to be more focused, disciplined and having fun learning martial arts. I am an elementary school teacher and know the importance of martial arts for children. In my class I noticed that the children who attend martial arts always do better in school. I’m very happy with this school. The school is not expensive, but the values and tools for life learned are priceless.

Due to great reviews on Unilocal (and lots of kids in class), I decided to enroll my two kids for Karate. For the last two months, my two kiddos Quincee & Leander love attending their class. What I observed so far: the instructors are very encouraging and have a great positive approach towards their students, great at remembering all names– I’m like wow, and there’s no pressure/​pushy sales talk after first trial tryout. Also a walking distance from Del Taco to get my shrimp taco!
The only thing why I gave 4 stars out of 5 is the parking. Parking gets very congested. Gotta arrive there few mins early.

This is a great place for fun, learning, and kids!!! My kid, Luke L. has been going for nearly a year and he loves it. Instructors are great and some of the best I’ve seen. If you want your kid to do something fun and learn at the same time, this is the place to be.

Great Martial arts studio!
My son Daniel has learning for just a little bit over a year and we are very pleased with his progress.
He was asked to join the Black Belt Club only after 4 months and is on track to becoming a Black Belt in June 2017 if everything stays on its course!
Well there’s my review hope you come down and check out Master Lawrence and all his great instructors and join you will not be sorry you came here!
Have a great time at Quest! Hope to see you there!

Retraction for my original review…
Not the best place for special needs children unfortunately… Yeah, they have good programs, but no real concept of «family» that they push for…

Quest is the most amazing martial arts school around! This was my son’s first experience. My son attended here for a year and went through the basic program while he was 7 and 8. We just finished our first year in February 2015.
The teachers were awesome —
1. They know how to work with kids (patient and encouraging) and are high energy.
2. They make it interesting while still teaching great karate (because karate has a lot of repetition).
3. They know each child by name and they get to know your child over the course of being there.
4. They are extremely consistent in everything they do and teach.
5. The kids just love them and look up to them.
6. The teachers show the kids so much respect and vice versa.
Master Lawrence (the owner) and Mr. Gunther (the manager) are also amazing. They are so personable and warm. They welcome you each and every time. They are always available if you have any questions or need anything. They also have fun and free activities throughout the year for friends and family to participate in.
If you are looking for a karate studio for your children… this is the place to be. I think it’s quite a feat to participate twice per week for over a year and only have AMAZING things to say. REALLY, you’ll love it!

The Quest instructors are great and the kids love their energy. I like the flexibility to their schedule which allows to take the same class on different days/​times.
My son has been coming to Quest for three years now and is now training to take his Black Belt at the end of the year. From all the extra curricular activities he does, karate is his favorite!

My children and I have been going here for a few months now and we love it here! It’s something my children look forward to and a great way for them to get some extra energy out and to help them stay focused! I love how Quest also works with you and my children’s school so if they’re not behaving they can not advance to the next level with their belts. As for me going it’s a great workout and something empowering for me as a woman! Give it a try it doesn’t hurt!
Unless you have Ms. Bautista working you out

My son has been attending Quest Martial Arts since March 2014, and I have seen huge difference in his discipline and self defense in such a short time. The instructors are AMAZING and they treat each student as if they were the only one, they don’t see them as a number. My son loves it, and he anxiously waits for it to be Tues, Wed and Sat for his classes!

My 5 year old has been going for not to long now, all I can say is wow!!! Everyone is so great they listen, help I just can’t recommend it enough.
Sending my son was one of the best decisions we have made!

My daughter has been in the Quest program for a year now and the experience has been overwhelmingly positive. Not only have we seen a positive change in the way she treats her younger brother, but her confidence has improved. She almost never misses a class, and has even attended some of the cool extra events and fun nights that Quest does (Star Wars movie night was her favorite, everyone watched the movie and got an actual glowing light saber… she still has it!)
I wholeheartedly recommend Quest to anyone looking for a great after school program for their kids.

My 6 year old has been coming for a year and my 4 year old started about a month ago. They both love every class and all the instructors. As an added bonus they have many events all throughout the year including «parent’s night out» and camps when schools out.
I highly recommend trying quest!
