Detail: "Sure there are a lot of places to learn and practice Martial Arts in the greater Seattle area, however none compare to Mercer Island Martial Arts. This is because the masters, Melisa Strongheart and Krista Wells, strive to make MIMA members grow both physically and mentally. To them martial arts is not just about athletics - they believe it also includes leadership, respect, responsibility, kindness to self, kindness to others, and much, much more. In addition, they encourage the practice of these skills outside the doojang, as well. Our son has a list of tasks to achieve at home in order to maintain his leadership status at MIMA which makes life for my husband and me so much easier! The expectations are challenging, but it all balanced with the warmth, love, caring and individualized support he needs to be successful. In fact, he has wanted to quit several times but the staff is able to uncover the root of his frustration and works to find ways to motivate him again to keep going. Suddenly he'll be asking to go a few hours a day instead of fighting to go at all. Maybe it is because both masters have backgrounds in psychology. They just get people. I would recommend MIMA a thousand times! It is the most positive place I could think of to send my son. "-Jennifer McCloud
