Hero Martial Arts

Hero Martial Arts is THE place you go in the Northland if you want to learn martial arts. They are knowledgeable, caring, and great for children and adult students. Our son has learned so much in the past year and we love how the instructors are part of our "family team." We work together and stay in constant communication about his progress and even how he's doing in school. Master Butler and his team including the AMAZING Master Neibling are simply wonderful. We love HERO!

My son has been part of the Hero Martial Arts family for about 2-1/2 years. He loves it and so do we. The Masters and Leaders are such great people with high character and quality standards for hard work and achievement. The teachers/instructors help physically train you, while focusing on life skills and lessons. My son just earned his Brown belt as an 8yo. I hope he spends his life affiliated with this great organization. Thank you for everything you've done for my son.

My son is attending the academy since he was 4 years old, he is now 16 and he continues to be engaged and is very excited to attend his classes. For me, the main reason is that Master Mike is always working to provide value and to challenge him. I truthfully recommend Hero Academy!

I have been training under Master Mike Butler for approximately 12 years now and I have no intention of stopping. It has been an amazing journey. I joined the school with my wife and kids. They have since stopped their training for various reasons but I decided to continue. HERO and its leadership are so much more than a school with martial arts instructors, they are a family. They are My family. I could have learned punching, kicking and blocking anywhere. Of course HERO teaches the basic martial arts fundamentals as well as advanced techniques once you reach the higher ranks and eventually achieve black belt. However, the greatest benefit is seeing my own personal growth. Not just at the school but in every day life. My character is much stronger and I am more confident and I continue to improve as my journey continues. I truly believe that I wouldn't have achieved all I have in life without being a part of this wonderful organization. Even more enjoyable has been the ability to watch students as well as instructors achieve things that at one time they never thought possible. YES, our instructors are also challenged daily and continue to grow. Our curriculum does change from time to time but so does life. Life doesn't warn you and you have to roll with the punches when it does. HERO does let you know when changes are coming and you see the plan when it is fully prepared and ready to be implemented. Everything is well thought out and done to make you a better version of yourself than you were the day before, Physically, Emotionally, and even Spiritually. Are you tired of living in a rut and always being at the mercy of others for income, safety, and health??? Then take a step for yourself and check out what HERO has to offer? HERO will provide you the tools to achieve your individual goals. We might not be everyone's taste but I guarantee you, if you give them a chance, you will come away with a positive experience. You get out of it what you put into it. Be safe, Be well, and Be a good friend to others.
