Fantastic experience: Wanted to learn how to defend myself and got more than that. Chris is a fantastic coach and teacher and very well versed in Martial arts. If it's for competition or just to get in shape the IMBCT has what your looking for

Fantastic experience: IMBCT is an amazing gym with an excellent coach and great students. The head coach, Chris, is knowledgeable and is still trying to add to his skills. He's able to break down advanced concepts into simple ways so that even beginners can take advantage of his experience.

Fantastic experience: The thing that makes IMBCT truly special is Chris Smith. Chris is an amazing Martial Artist who has a wealth of knowledge that he will gladly share with you at the drop of a hat. Truly a selfless individual. Not only will he gladly share this knowledge with you but he will make sure you learn it and express it in a safe manner where nobody is hurting their training partners and interrupting their Martial Arts journey. Besides all of this he has created an amazing culture of friendly students who are willing to help anyone out with anything. Whether you have a young child/teenager looking at the Martial Arts or you yourself are looking at the Martial Arts IMBCT has everything you need to learn a ton!!

Fantastic experience: I have seen a high number of martial arts schools over the years from California to New York to Connecticut.. Whether your goal is to train self defense, train for competition or just get/stay in shape, the IMB Academy has a class and path for you. Chris’ knowledge and skills are second to none. I personally enjoy more of the self defense path and find Chris’ teachings very applicable. I also enjoy the camaraderie amongst the students in the class and the Chris’ ability to take very complex concepts and moves and break them down into bite sized more manageable nuggets of knowledge. If you are on the fence I highly recommend trying a class or two out and see for yourself!

Fantastic experience: Great place to train - I was a little nervous to join at first, but everybody is extremely helpful and friendly. That said, they also know how to push you to push yourself! Chris is an excellent instructor and will happily answer any questions you could possibly have when training.
