It's a wonderful feeling seeing the students do all the techniques that I taught them.

"Karate is the best sport I ever took. It takes a lot of practice and work, but if you try hard enough you could get your black belt. Join the Danielson Martial Arts Academy today because it's really fun. "Anna Senay

"We would personally like to commend Master Daryl Laperle and Danielson Martial Arts Academy for instilling confidence and self esteem to our son, 1st Dan black belt Cody White. We have been with the DMAA family since January of 2002, and feel like we are just as big a part of the school as the students. Master Laperle and all of the Black Belt staff at DMAA treat all of their students with respect and instill a strong feeling of self worth and discipline, all in a fun and family type atmosphere. We would recommend DMAA and Cheezic Tang Soo Do to anyone wanting to learn martial arts the correct way."Marc and Robin Coderre

"Once you watch Master Laperle and his black belts teaching, you want to be part of it. Master Laperle teaches discipline, respect, and self-confidence. My three children and I are very proud to be part of the DMAA family."

"After research of several martial arts facilities in the area, we chose DMAA. My daughter and I liked the family atmosphere and individual attention students received. Other schools seem to focus on intense sparring, non-contact Karate or kickboxing, not on traditional karate values, like DMAA. We have been with DMAA for some time now, and I can honestly say we have never questioned our decision."
-Bob Senay

"When my daughter joined karate, LeeAnn was very quiet and shy. Now, she has gained confidence and self-esteem through the values she has been taught by the wonderful instructors at Danielson Martial Arts Academy."
-Lisa Krauss

"Deciding to join the Danielson Martial Arts Academy has been one of the better decisions my husband and daughter have made. Under the expert instruction and guidance of Chief Instructor Master Daryl Laperle, Master Gary Guay and the areas finest black belts, they are learning much more than karate, and have become part of the DMAA family. I would recomend this academy to anyone who wants to become part of an organization that truly cares about it's individuals, families and community and represents itself in this manner."
