I have been studying at what was then Quest Center Martial Arts since December 2006. In that time, I have had the privilege of working with John Poloquin, Mark White, Bill Carey, Zach Labbay, Joe Poloquin, and others. Each one of these dedicated individuals brings his or her own style to the mat. Many of them have helped to teach seminars to local-area women so that they can defend themselves against attack. I have participated in some of those events and have seen the participants grow over the course of the seminar.
Any student or instructor will help any other student. Everyone there wants to help students learn and grow in this art. Students are also taught according to their physical characteristics and other details; they do not teach a 6'4'' man the same way they teach a small, older woman. But every student is taught how to use skills to keep himself or herself safe, and it starts on day one of training.
I urge anyone who wants to get into martial arts or get their loved ones into martial arts to check out this school. I have never been anyplace where there are more people dedicated to teaching an art which works without relying on brute strength or ferocity. Drop by and see what all the fuss is about. You will never be sorry that you did.
