Founded in 1998, the family-operated powerhouse we now call APMA is on a thrilling mission! We’re all about sculpting champions—both students and staff—who are ready to turbocharge our kids and community. Our after-school program is like a fun filled boot camp for the brain and body, sparking those young minds.
At Kimling’s Academy of Martial Arts, we live by a simple yet powerful mission: “Lead by Example.” Our dedication to this principle is evident in every class, every interaction, and in the strong, supportive community we’ve built.
Over 9000 students we've taught since 1996 under Master Michael Kimling's.
We believe that martial arts is more than just physical training; it’s a journey of self-discovery, discipline, and leadership.
A native of Puerto Rico, Kimling emulated the karate skills from the popular 1980s movie Karate Kid by joining a karate studio initially as a hobby at 10 years old. He grew to love karate, earned his first Black Belt at age 17, and continued with the discipline through high school and college. Currently Master Kimling holds 7 black belts.The studio is a mixture of taekwondo, kempo, kung fu, and goju-ryu martial arts styles. Master Kimling continued to lead his students by example, and his Legacy grew into something much more than kicks, punches, and self defense classes.
“Lead by Example” is the credo of Kimling’s Academy of Martial Arts in Oakland Park. Master Kimling exemplifies the qualities of discipline, motivation, fitness, accountability, self defense and respect for others that he has instilled in his students at his academy for the past 25 years in South Florida.
BEING A PARENT IS NEVER EASY!
WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE STARTED OUR AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM…
One of the biggest challenges of parenting is finding wholesome and fun activities for your kids to do after school. It’s especially important if you work and you know your kids will be unsupervised for several hours a day. You want to know where your kids are and what they’re doing – and you want them to be learning something and not just playing video games.
That’s where our after-school program comes in. Kids learn about martial arts, including the core tenets of respect, discipline, and perseverance, in a fun and social setting. karate classes
Learning martial arts helps kids in many ways. The karate classes teaches them to respect themselves and others, and to persist when they have a goal in mind. It emphasizes the mind-body connection and helps them to discipline themselves without being reminded.
Some after-school programs simply offer parents a place to send their kids without any other benefits. Ours is different.
Kids who study martial arts learn respect for themselves and others, discipline in the pursuit of goals, and the rewards of hard work – lessons that carry over to home, school, and beyond.
Sometimes, kids struggle to make new friends. It can be hard to find others with common interests or to have the time to socialize at school.
Our after-school program is a social setting, a place where kids can share experiences while learning something new. Many of the kids who attend our programs end up being close friends.
