That all depends on you. No one can truly answer that question, because everyone learns at a different pace. However, in every class at Legacy FMA, we strive to have you walk away with a working knowledge of the techniques taught in class. You may not be perfect at it, but it will be knowledge you can apply to defend yourself. Just like anything else in life, the more time and effort you put in to your training, the more effective you will be. Training 3 times a week will help you learn faster than training 1 day a month.

This is my son’s first martial arts and my 8 year old just loves this place! Great teachers and well organized teaching style! Teachers have a great rapport with students as well as parents! Great communication throughout! Students are able to pick 3 days out of four to practice in a convenient location… Highly recommend!

My Two Boys just started about a month ago and they really love the classes! They have pick up the lessons in such a short amount of time and improving every week. All the kids are excited and and can't wait to learn new things. We really enjoy all the aspects of not only Filipino culture but all the other disciplines of martial arts!! Thank You Master Joseph and Instructor Sonny!!!

I've been training with Legacy FMA since July 2021. I don't have much experience with many other schools, but I can confidently say that there aren't many places as warm, welcoming, and talented as the community members of Legacy. The curriculum is organized, practical, and incredibly empowering. I'm a 5'0" smaller-framed Pinay and after hearing about the targeted attacks on Asian women and elders back in March 2021, I used to be afraid every time I left my home. But after a year of training with Master Joseph and his excellent team of guros, I can stand in power and with the confidence that I can protect myself and my loved ones should any harm try to come our way. So grateful to have found a school and community that honors our ancestral history, watches out for its community members, and makes us look damn good doing it!! Can't wait to start sparring and possibly represent the school at tournaments and such. Love you Legacy! Some other highlights: - Our serrada style was systemized by Angel Cabales, a 4'9" Filipino immigrant and death match champion - The school's gender ratio is about 50-50, and the sisterhood shared among the women practitioners + the master's teachings embrace the Filipinx tradition of women warriors - Lots of parking, family-friendly environment, everyone is always down to train and help others sharpen their skill If you're reading this and thinking about trying a class, DO IT!! You won't regret it!!
