Testimonial
"Nicole, my 12 year old daughter started to train here at Don Warrener's Martial Arts Academy in Brantford about 16 months ago. We were looking for something to help boost her self confidence. Training here we found that her self confidence has improved, she has met many new friends and she has learned many new life skills. She now views her dojo friends as family. Nicole's Sensei and team of Instructors are first class and care deeply about the well being of their students." ~ Dan Balkwill
