“Amazing, empowering, eye-opening. Patrick was awesome with my pre-college daughter who took a self-defense series with him. We both learned so much and feel way more prepared than before if we should face a dangerous situation (hope not!). Thank you, Pat!”

“Excellent staff. They help you reach your goals. Very positive and confident. Always able to help and answer any health questions or concerns. Workouts are very intense and motivating. No matter how bad a day you had, or if you're struggling mentally or physically, this is the right place for you. :)”

“I don't even know where to begin...Kapatid Martial Arts is an amazing place to work out and meet great people...the instructors are supportive...motivating...inspiring....it's not just a place to workout...it's a place to learn about yourself (inside and out)... join us on the mat and you will see for yourself....trust me you'll be hooked....”

“I'm new to kickboxing and this location was a great place to start! The staff is super friendly and helpful and other members are even a great help. It's a totally nonjudgmental environment. The classes themselves are super fun and definitely a great workout. Having others around you makes you push yourself than you normally would. And the workout itself is killer and I can already feel myself getting stronger! Definitely worth checking out--I bought the groupon and was hooked since day 1!”

“I have studied marital arts for over a decade, and even after receiving my black belt in JKD, it wasn't until I found Kapatid and Tuhon Consing, along with Gurus Jay-Ray and Tim, that I felt that I was finally in the "adult" class. All the instructors are super patient and humble, as well as ridiculously skilled. If you want a legitimate marital art that focuses on growth not only of the mind and body, but of the spirit, than I highly recommend this school.”

“When I signed my 7 year old up for the Kids Martial Arts trial at Kapatid, I didn’t know what to expect. He is not the greatest at most sports and is painfully shy. Upon walking in on our first day, we were greeted with such warmth and encouragement that my son walked right onto the mat. After taking a few classes, he was hooked and I was thrilled. Fast forward several weeks and the change I have seen in my son is remarkable. His confidence has sky rocketed, as well as his coordination. He completes homework without complaining, goes over and above with chores at home and has become much more independent. He is a better version of himself. We highly recommend Kapatid, thank you so much for the lessons you have instilled in him.”

“I highly recommend ILKB pleasantville, the staff and members are so friendly, helpful and motivating. The studio and equipment is very clean. I have only been attending classes for 3 weeks now and I already see a difference in my body, flexibility, strength and confidence. Definitely a far better choice than another boring gym membership.”

“I am a member of the ILKB team at Kapatid Martial Arts. The best part about ILKB in Pleasantville, NY is the instructors and staff! From day one, they have been supportive and motivating. It is certainly a judge-free place full of people who are all trying to achieve the same thing - their best possible self! Fitness has always been a part of my life. I normally exercise 5-6 times a week, anything from cardio to strength training. ILKB has brought variety into my weekly schedule, and I always feel as if I got a great full-body workout after each class. You will definitely feel strong and healthy after joining ILKB in Pleasantville!”
