Shaolin Self Defense Centers offers an enriching and fun after-school program for children, with a focus on building confidence, self-esteem, and discipline through martial arts. The staff is kind and caring, while also instilling the discipline expected from the martial arts. The studio's owner, Sensei Miles, is praised as an amazing role model and instructor who cares deeply about each student as an individual. The center organizes various events, such as holiday ninja nights and game nights, which the kids thoroughly enjoy. Parents highly recommend the Shaolin Self Defense Centers, particularly for their excellent instruction, patience with children, and the positive impact on their kids' personal development.
My son Nathan has grown up at Shaolin in East Islip, achieving martial arts milestones beyond our expectation. I would highly recommend sending your son/daughter to Shaolin. Sensei Miles is THE best!

5yr old son had a great time at a Karate birthday party. The instructor was excellent with the kids with a seemingly bottomless amount of patience for them. Would consider for hosting our own party. Thinking about regular classes.
