"At EMA there is a strong quality to the training offered. I received my third degree black belt at EMA, and the guidance was very tailored to each student. A lot of time and attention is taken in learning the techniques so you can perform them accurately and with a tremendous amount of skill on the street. The overall quality offered imparts a lot of confidence to me, so I know that I will be able to defend myself in a confrontation. This is a school for students who are very serious about learning the Martial Arts. I can't recommend it highly enough." Show Less

"I’ve been a student of 10 to 12 regular/primary instructors (and have seen and experienced several more through friends and family) in multiple martial arts disciplines over the past 25 years. I can confidently tell you that Pheyland Barthen is not only a top-notch martial artist, but he is the very best instructor I have encountered. Not only does he know his stuff, but he knows how to teach and explain well, multiple ways, and on multiple levels. I was fortunate enough to first study under his tutelage roughly 20 years ago and was very excited to reconnect and resume training with him in 2021. Study with Pheyland and you will not be disappointed! You will learn to defend yourself and have confidence if you ever find yourself in a sticky situation." Show Less

"My son has been in Mr. Pheyland's karate class for about a year now. He has made good progress over this period and he actually enjoys going to class. Compared to his previous karate class he said likes the way Mr. Pheyland instructs and gives feedback. He felt he has an instructor that pays attention to his progress and there's no yelling in Mr. Pheyland's class. As a parent, I'm also very comfortable with Mr. Pheyland. He is patient to provide feedback on my son's progress. Mr. Pheyland doesn't employ marketing tactics to upsell me into anything. I also like how Mr. Pheyland integrates character development as much as possible. He cares about overall development of my son. I can't ask for a better karate instructor for my son." Show Less
"Training with Pheyland has been an awesome experience for my sons and I. We’ve learned technical skills as well as the proper mindset in which we should operate in various encounters. Pheyland’s decades of experience and dedication to the arts definitely shows fourth."
