Northwest Fighting Arts is AWESOME!! All the trainers are fantastic! I started 6 months ago and have lost 20 pounds but inherited a lot of energy and strength along with confidence and a determination to continue with healthy eating, exercising , and having tons of fun! Check it out! 😃

A good friend recommended Tai Chi classes at Northwest Fighting Arts and I started going to class and practicing regularly about 4 weeks ago. Best decision I have made in a long while. The community is friendly and I feel at home there. I super appreciate the opportunity to learn and I am already noticing positive effects in my overall health and wellbeing.

I have had nothing but great experiences here at NWFA! The instructors are great and will answer questions before, during, and after class. They will coach you during drills so that you have feedback in the moment and you can be confident that you are focusing on your technique correctly. They will help with conditioning during class as well. I work retail and I find that the 8 pm class works best for my schedule. They give you a pair of gloves right after you sign up so that you can start right away. I recommend you get your own pair so that they fit you better but I like that you can start right away. The community is very welcoming and I have met some amazing people. I am not the social type of person but I have found that most members are easy to talk to and are willing to show you what they know if you ask, like wrapping your hands, or where to get fighting gear, or how to be better at kicking. Overall I have enjoyed every class and every moment I have had at NWFA, I enjoy being challenged and NWFA has done exactly that for my journey and my goals.

I have been attending NW Fighting Ars for the past three months, and I can truly say it has been a beautiful, grounding experience. The qigong and tai chi classes are fun and interactive. Each session leaves me calmer, more centered, and more connected to my body. The instructors are knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely caring. They create an environment that feels welcoming and supportive, no matter your experience level. I love how they break down the movements with such clarity and intention, making it easy to learn while still challenging myself in the best way. NW Fighting Arts is a peaceful space where you can grow, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. I am grateful I found this place and highly recommend it to anyone looking to bring more balance and strength into their life.
