Lightning Kicks experience
I would just like to take a minute and thank Amir and his staff at Lightning Kicks. I enrolled my 14 year old son and myself in order to share in something special that he may build on his entire life. Amir and his crew have not let me down. The instructors have been top shelf, the training has been better than I could have imagined both mentally and physically, and I can't imagine a better atmosphere for a young man to be in at such a critical time in there lives. Thanks gentlemen for a great experience. Greg Cooney.

Lightning Kicks is top-notch
Amir and his staff at Lightning Kicks are top-notch. They are extremely good with strong willed, stubborn 5 year olds. :-) I recommend Lightning Kicks to any one who is interested in martial arts, at any skill level. Everyone from the instructors to the students make you feel welcome and there are no egos that get in the way of the training. It is a great place. Highly Recommended!

helping me be the best me I can be
I just wanted to say that the family that makes up Lightning Kick's is superb! I am an older ex-wrestler so I've had interest in MMA for years. Deciding to check it out at the highest level was intimidating, but the people here are great! They have welcomed me. I am simplly learning for an understanding of the sport, to get in shape, and to finally feel like part of a team- of a family! Even if my days of being able to keep up are long gone, it is great to be a part of a tight-knit group that is helping me to remember how to work hard and to train. Great people here and great skills are all here. Intimidating at first from my own fears, but the easy acceptance helps me to learn to be part of a great group even if I'll never be the next Ultimate Fighter. They are helping me be the best me I can be.
Can't say enough good things about these guys and girls. They help me learn and they all are very well-grounded, not just in this great sport but in life as well.

Testimonial
We moved back to the Kalamazoo area three years ago and have since made Lightning Kicks a part of our weekly lives. I was initially looking for an activity for my, then four year old, son to have independent from his twin sister. Our older daughter (10) then decided that she wanted to join. Lightning Kicks maintains a good atmosphere for children to learn and grow in. You will meet people from every background who attend for a wide variety or reasons or goals. No matter who you are or where you are coming from the staff really does a great job in motivating people move forward. They consistently reinforce the relationship between hard work and achievement. In a society where a great deal is taken for granted this lesson is often missed. Lightning Kicks has had a very positive influence on my children and I would recommend it to anyone.

Lightning Kicks is a Family
My initial exposure to Lightning Kicks was through my daughter. I was looking for a child friendly martial Arts program, with the expectation that she would have fun; while learning to defend her self. After a few months of observation, I wanted to share that therapeutically positive energy and instruction with all of the at-risk students with whom I worked. I expected that they would benefit socially and emotionally from the Lightning Kicks experience, and was not disappointed. All of the students, whom I’ve brought to Master Amir Khillah (and his able Black Belts) , were made to feel welcome, and have continued to thrive and develop into well adjusted individuals.
I have always been interested in martial arts and have studied other arts in the past. They all have been physically challenging and intellectually stimulating, but seemed to fall short. It was not until I became a member of Lightning Kicks Martial Arts, that I realized those other experiences failed to provide a sense of family and integrity. Since I began instruction in Combat Hapkido, and participating in the Fight Fit, and Jiu Jitsu programs at Lighting Kicks, I have come to understand and appreciate Master Amir’s focus on growing Lightning Kicks as a family/community and his very wise method of instruction.
Lightning Kicks instruction is age and developmentally appropriate, in addition to being free of intimidation. It inspires development of powerful energy from within. In addition to my own confidence; I have proudly watched the confidence my daughter, and several of my young clients grow with the realization that unlimited strength comes from within. Master Amir and the training staff gently beckon students forward, each step opening new doors of dynamic, powerful techniques and skills and confidence to apply them.
As I continue in my 5th year of training at Lightning Kicks (my Daughter is in her 6th year), I am proud to be a member of the Lightning Kicks family. In addition to Tae Kwon Do, Combat Hapkido, Jiu Jitsu, and training to military and law enforcement personnel, Master Amir has unveiled a strong Mixed Martial Arts program.
Master Amir has done an excellent job of growing the warrior spirit; in balance with a sense of family. I have entrusted my loved ones to lightning kicks, and have never doubted instructional methods, nor questioned the integrity, nor motives of the people involved in this great organization. I highly recommend all that Lightning Kicks has to offer, and proudly call myself a member of the Lightning Kicks family.

Why I love LK
I have a really stressful job and 120 mile daily commute. Sometimes my life can catch up to me, but I always know at the end of the day I will be with some of the most genuinely awesome people in the world at Lightning Kicks. I have great teammates that make me better every day and instructors that invest time with every person that walks through the door. Lightning Kicks makes me a better person and has aided me in becoming a superior athlete both inside and out. If you want to be a great mixed martial artist, need to stay active or want to be a part of a team that is like a family, you can find a home at Lightning Kicks.
