Both my daughter and son have been coming to Haritos for four years. Not only have they learned martial arts, but Master Steven has taught them how to be disciplined, confident, and stand up for themselves. My kids love coming here not only for classes, but also for the camps that are offered during breaks. I would highly recommend Haritos!!!

My children went to Haritos Martial Arts and now my grandchildren attend there too! Life skills are taught thru play and games so the lessons of respect, confidence and self defense are instilled in the students without them even realizing it. Surely the best investment a parent can make for their child. Especially in this crazy high tech society we live in today.

I’ve been attending the summer fitness kickboxing classes for about a month now. So far I’ve learned a lot about kickboxing and feel a lot more stronger, healthier, and it’s so much more than a great workout.
It’s a great class for beginners Master Steve and Cindy do an excellent job of explaining and demonstrating movements. If you’re nervous about trying kickboxing— they’ll put you at ease!

I did the 6 week challenge last Summer 2017 at Haritos Martial Arts in Cliffside Park NJ, and now I have been attending the Summer Fitness kickboxing classes since March 2018 and I have to say I absolutely LOVE coming here. Master Steve and Cindy are the best at what they do. They are always sharing their knowledge with us, and pushing us to the limits! - their classes are very technical and they are always looking out for our safety in everything they train us on. It's always a pleasure to train with them. Looking forward to many more classes and fun. The best and my favorite way to learn

I highly recommend Haritos Martial Arts! My son was 4 years old when we enrolled and we have been there for over a year now. It has taught my son discipline and how to focus. Master Steve is a great guy who has a way of teaching children with a masterful mix of tough love while still incorporating fun into his lessons. My son admires him & looks forward to each & every class. We will be there for many years to come!

My 3 kids have been training with Master Steve for many years. I have seen them evolve from beginners to advanced levels. Master Steve is excellent at making the classes interesting, educational and what he teaches can be applied in real life self defense situations. Moreover he works with the parents to identify any problems that the kids might have at home or school and he goes out of his way to rectify them.

Both our kids attended Haritos Martial arts and both my husband I were incredibly pleased with the results. Not only did our 8 year old daughter learn self defense but she has also gained more confidence. Our 6 year old son also learned self defense but has also gained better listening skills . In the short time we joined I can definitely say we saw a huge improvement in our kids discipline as well as respect towards others. Sir and Mrs. Cindy are wonderful with the kids and demonstrate incredible patience with each child as everyone is different, however treating everyone equally.

Master Steve's "Sir" specialty is connecting with the kids. He makes martial arts fun by creating games that teach multiple skills. Kids in our family have been going to him for the last 9 years and there is never a dull moment. He has taught our girls important skills such as, respect, discipline, and mixed martial arts techniques. Our kids love working out with him. We highly recommend the school to everyone!

Master Steve (Sir) has a great way with children especially younger ones. He combines fun with discipline by playing games that are all about training. The price is good if your looking for a good school. Also, you will notice your child become more focused and calm. Martial arts is a great thing for college resumes and getting any level of belt will make your child build self confidence. What Master Steve teaches is real.
