What our students Say
“It took only one trial class for my son (Sawyer) to love Murray’s. He has had previous martial arts (taekwondo) experience but lost interest. Murray’s gives their students instruction and attention that most Martial Arts places are missing. Also they offer party nights for students once a month that my son loves to attend with the fellow students. I cannot say enough good things about this place. I have and do recommend Murray’s to any one I speak to.”

“We love the staff at Murray’s Martial Arts in Irondequoit. From day one, our son has been engaged and at times, entertained by the fun, caring, senseis. As a mom, I feel my son’s characters is growing with each.”

“I love MMAC Greece! I signed up for the 3-class adult kickboxing course and at the end of the first day, I was all for it. At first I was so nervous/ anxious but Andrea welcomed me with open arms as soon as I walked in that door. My first day was tough for me but she motivated me the whole 50 minutes. I am now a member of MMAC and go weekly. The class schedule fits so well with my work schedule and I actually look forward to going. All of the instructors are so much fun, and so are the other students. One thing that I love most is that each class is different. There is nothing like being in a positive environment with great people, great music (lol), while working up a sweat!”
