I’ve been a student of Mr. Ness’s since I was 12 years old and I must say, when it comes to martial arts, there’s no one who does karate like Vincent Ness. The energy he brings to every class is contagious, and he somehow manages to balance fun times with discipline perfectly. If you are a youngster, you’re going to find a playful environment with a lot of friends that also teaches responsibility... More

I’ve been a student of Mr. Ness’s since I was 12 years old and I must say, when it comes to martial arts, there’s no one who does karate like Vincent Ness. The energy he brings to every class is contagious, and he somehow manages to balance fun times with discipline perfectly. If you are a youngster, you’re going to find a playful environment with a lot of friends that also teaches responsibility and focus. If you’re a young adult/adult, you’ll find an environment that is friendly and welcome while it also pushes you to be better. All in all, if martial arts is something that you wish to learn, there is no other place I could recommend than that of a USSD dojo with Master Ness as your teacher. Less

My 8 year old has loved taking classes here! Master Ness is so energetic and fun! He keeps it fun but also teaches so many important lessons for the kids. He teaches the techniques, important life lessons for the kids to take with them beyond the classes, and keeps the kids interested and having fun the whole time.
