WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY
"I have been attending classes at IMAC for about two years and I cannot recommend this school highly enough. Grandmaster Hahn lives up to the name and is eager to pass along his knowledge to his students. The other instructors are all very supportive and skilled as well. In the time I've been studying here I've seen a dramatic increase in my own strength, stamina, and flexibility."
Josh B.
I’ve truly learned a lot about myself, how I learn and the best part is, the community. I can definitely promise, anyone that comes to this school, there is zero judgment and everyone is truly supportive, teachers and students alike. It really is a great joy to come to class and see how you as an individual progresses along with your classmates.
