The Gossip About Aspire Martial Arts
Anton Burman
Parent
"Aspire Martial Arts have been the talk of our family for the past couple years. We enrolled our children with Mr. Morris and wow what a difference we have seen in our kids. We enrolled our kids into this program to see their physical abilities grow and learn self defense. They definitely have. Aspire doesn't only teach martial arts. They also teach kids respect and leadership skills. Our kids have grown so much with their program and we are very happy with Mr. Morris and his team.
Update 2/4/2026
I coach teenage girls in soccer here in La Mesa and for the past three years we have been working with Mr. Morris in teaching self defense and leadership through seminars. He has always been professional and the girls always enjoys them. It is vital for our kids to learn self defense and Mr. Morris is a great example for them as an instructor and leader!"

"We have been coming here for 8 years and Mr morris is amazing with kids and teaches them the discipline they need"

"My son began his journey with Aspire Martial Arts in 2015. He was only 4.5 and had a typical 4.5 year old attention span. Mr. Morris has a natural gift when it comes to these youngsters. I've personally witnessed not only my own sons growth but countless others as well. We are more like a family at Aspire and all these kids share a very special bond. Developmentally, you can watch the kids progress as they transform within only a matter of weeks. Whether your goal is just an activity for your child during these troubling times or all out martial arts competition you WILL NOT find a better school than Aspire.
As a behavior health professional, it blows my mind how great Mr. Morris is with all personality types to include kids with developmental issues. In fact, they thrive in this environment. Mr. Morris just has a natural gift and it is very impressive. My son loves Mr. Morris like he is family and thinks the world of him. It is so refreshing that he has worked so hard through these difficult times to provide an outlet that is so desperately needed for these kids. Come and see for yourself! You will not be disappointed!"
