Martial Arts Classes For Kids In Barrington, RI

We have had an excellent experience with Mastery Martial Arts in Barrington. Over the past year, our son has grown tremendously in confidence, focus, and discipline, and the impact has carried over into school and other parts of his life. Ms. Lemoi and Mr. Parks are exceptional teachers. They are encouraging, respectful, and hold kids to high standards in a way that makes their achievements feel truly earned. Highly recommend to any parent looking for more than just an activity.

Mastery Martial Arts is the best! The growth I have seen in my children over the past year that we have been at Mastery is remarkable. Ms. Lemoi and Mr. Parks are both amazing instructors who care so much about their students. The strong sense of community shared by instructors and students transforms what is traditionally considered an individual sport into a team experience. The other aspect that sets it apart from other sports and activities is its holistic approach, focusing on physical, emotional, and mental growth. I can't say enough good things about it......We love Mastery!

Mr. Parks came to our school to introduce our students to martial arts through an interactive whole group lesson. The kids loved learning some basics and working with each other. Mr. Parks was very patient and kind with everyone! Highly recommend.

Absolutely phenomenal martial arts school! Ms. Lemoi and Mr. Parks are incredibly gifted—they keep the kids engaged, focused, and genuinely excited to learn. They go above and beyond, both in class and during the amazing birthday party they hosted for my son. Their leadership extends beyond martial arts, helping shape confident, respectful, and motivated young people. Highly recommend!

As a parent, I cannot say enough good things about Mastery Martial Arts. Both of my children train here, and the growth I have seen in their confidence and sense of self has been remarkable. Mastery focuses on helping children value who they are, not for being perfect, but for being authentic and confident in themselves. What stands out most is how the instructors truly see each student. Ms. Lemoi and Mr. Parks show patience, belief, and real care. They help my children feel supported and proud while learning respect, discipline, and perseverance. I see these lessons show up at home, at school, and in the way my children move through the world. As a parent, you want your children to grow into people who feel confident, kind, and comfortable in their own skin. Mastery supports that in every class. We are grateful for this community and everything it has given our family.

Mastery is an amazing organization, and I can't recommend them enough! My daughter started very shy and scared, after working with their amazing teachers, Ms. Lemoi and Mr. Parks (who are both so warm, kind, and patient) she speaks clearly and confidently, she has great self esteem and has told me she has a "growth mindset". And these are skills that are so fundamental to instill in these young kids. Mastery is the best!

Having my daughters join Mastery Martial Arts-Barrington was one of the best decisions I have made as a parent looking to provide my children with the best opportunities and experiences to help them grow and flourish. Under the leadership and with support of Ms Lemoi and Mr. Parks, my daughters have grown from being shy, hesitant girls to two young warriors ready to take on the world with its many challenges. They've developed so much confidence, self-esteem, and awareness. One of them said to me they stood up for a friend who was being bullied at school. I was listening to her telling me the story with such an awe (that proud mommy moment). Ms Lemoi and Mr Parks provide such a welcoming and family-friendly environment where every student feels they belong. I am so happy that my girls are part of this wonderful Mastery Martial Arts-Barrington community. The kids never want to leave after class, and that's how you know, this is the place for them. Thank you Ms Lemoi and Mr Parks.

Mastery Martial Arts Barrington has been an absolute game changer for our family. Both of our boys attend, and the growth we've seen—in their confidence, self-esteem, focus, and physical skills—has been remarkable. We are especially grateful for Ms. Lemoi and Mr. Parks. Their positivity, encouragement, and dedication to teaching leadership truly make a lasting impact. We couldn't be happier with our experience and highly recommend this studio to any family looking for a supportive and inspiring martial arts community.

My children (ages 6 and 8) have started learning martial arts for about 10 months now. We have seen profound growth in them where they stepped out of their comfort zones, pushing themselves, conquering their fears, being role models, setting examples and inspiring others. This is truly amazing! Martial arts teaches confidence, resilience and gives a kind of inner armor that doesn't show up on the outside but changes everything on the inside. We are certainly seeing positive changes in our children, becoming more confident, respectful, responsible and physically, mentally, emotionally stronger individuals. We are very fortunate to have the amazing Ms. Lemoi and Mr. Parks being alongside our children for their black belt journey. They continuously help the students to learn, never stop believing in them and always encouraging them to be the best they can be! Thank you, Mastery team!
