"The dojo left me with confidence and a stronger self-conscience, and helped me get into a much better state of physical condition that i thought possible."

Ever since I started Martial arts at Victory martial arts academy; right away i was inspired to learn more. The feeling once you step into their doors is unbelievable; people are students are wonderful, teachers are fantastic. It was never really hard for me to learn whatever the teachers taught; they were always very clear on what they taught.

The dojo left me with confidence and a stronger self-conscience, and helped me get into a much better state of physical condition that i thought possible. The victory martial arts dojo is my second home, and deeply consider the teachers and students as my family. I owe all of my progress and many life lessons from this dojo. It is an honor to be apart of this alliance and am guaranteeing that it will be a big hit.

"Victory's staff and students made me feel, as I had been part of the program for years with in minutes of being there."

After researching numerous martial arts facilities in the Cook/Dupage area, I found Victory to be a truly authentic facility with amazing people. These people not only include the staff, but the members as well. On my first class I felt welcomed and comfortable with everyone. After nearly five years of hesitation to join any martial arts program, I feel I made an outstanding choice. The biggest obstacle for potential members is that first class. Doing anything the first time is always the hardest. Victory's staff and students made me feel, as I had been part of the program for years with in minutes of being there.

When seeking a place to train you should be looking for a place that your comfortable in. There are numerous other "cookie cutter" facilities out there, however they seem to be financially driven. Most of these strip mall martial arts complexes made promises of a black belt within 18 months of joining. While this seems like a great idea, remember you get what you pay for. These sites offered belts in set time frames and long-term contracts within minutes of walking in the door. Victory offered a strong handshake and an offer to play with everyone else before ever asking for my checkbook. I don't need a colored belt to show that dedicated to a program; I'll let my actions speak for me!

"Dion has taken real life scenarios, and through his training and experiences has developed defenses that work "

My name is Corrado I have been a police officer for the past six year with the Summit Police Department. I have had the pleasure of attending the last two Defensive Tactics Tool Box classes held at Argo High School . These 2 classes have shown me that I am not as prepared for physical encounters on the street as I thought. Dion has taken real life scenarios, and through his training and experiences has developed defenses that work unlike many of the techniques taught to law enforcement officers in academy

"Aside from my parents, no other person has had such a profound and positive influence on my life."

I have trained with Mr. Dion Riccardo for several years. I have not only gained practical defensive tactics skill and the ability to apply my training, but a keen level of awareness and a trained (educated) eye for the functionality of technique. The experience I gained from Dion is an invaluable asset and tool that has become part of who I am. Aside from my parents, no other person has had such a profound and positive influence on my life

"I have been training under Dion for 5 years now and the training is just fantastic "

I have been training under Dion for 5 years now and the training is just fantastic. Easy to learn and with the direction of Dion one can become very affective at stopping an attack. DEFENSIVE TACTICS THAT WORK IN REAL LIFE SITUATIONS.

Master Riccardo has combined techniques from Muay Thai Kickboxing, Escrima/Kali, Jun Fan Gung Fu and Jiu-Jitsu to create an exciting program based on Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do that will benefit your body, mind and spirit. The blending of these methods and the JKD philosphy of "use what works" yields the most effective martial arts system you can learn today!

You'll learn how to defend yourself in all three self defense situations: Striking, Grappling and Weapons. In this program you'll not only learn the art of self defense, you'll get in the best shape of your life while learning invaluable life skills.

Don't take my word for it... read what people have to say about our program!:

" I found a home away from home."

When I started training martial arts, I had no idea that it would lead to this. I first began my training in 1999 around July, august and that's when I met the man that would impact my life for years to come Dion Riccardo. Who knew that greatness was right in my backyard in oak park at that time I was in high school as a junior and I was just awe struck with Bruce Lee and when I found out he had a legit martial art system I just had to study it and that's when I meet Mr.Riccardo the moment I stepped through the doors of 1005 Madison street I knew I found a home away from home. His confidence, poise and physical grace were and are second to none. I later found out that what I wanted at the beginning was completely different from what kept me there it wasn't just self defense anymore it was more much more!

"I don't make excuses anymore, I feel better physically and I have been able to focus and expand my core values."

Hi My name is Paul Sepanovich and I would like to talk to you about Victory Martial Arts. After a long and often intimidating search of Martial Art's schools I found Victory Martial Arts by accident, but now I like to think it was fate instead of an accident that brought me here. I have always been somewhat of a slacker my whole life, never wanting to push my self to accomplish my goals. Whether it be going to the gym, eating healthier or pushing myself in my profession, I've always had an excuse to tell myself. After finally forcing myself I mustered up the courage to go to the school.

My first time there I was extremely intimidated. Here's all these people hoping and flying around practicing all these moves and combo's that I know NOTHING about! Even though I knew nothing the staff and my fellow students took the time and patience to explain and re-explain what I needed to do. I have never felt so much comppassion and camaraderie before. This isn't your everyday run of the mill type of school. Here you have people that really care about each other and will do anything they can to help you go that extra mile. Even though I have only been at the school a short time I can already feel the impact that Dion and everyone at Victory Martial Arts has had on me.

I don't make excuses anymore, I feel better physically and I have been able to focus and expand my core values and I thank you Dion and everyone at Victory Martial arts from the bottom of my heart. If your looking for a no nonsense, experienced group of people that really do care about you, the individual Then look no further then Victory Martial arts. Thank you and I hope to see you in class one day soon. .

"I can honestly say Victory Martial Arts has changed my life."

I started the class one year ago wanting to become a better martial artist, as well as get in shape. One year later I accomplished those feats with the guidence and excellent training from the Victory Martial Arts staff. Since last June i've already lost 52 lbs. and i am in the best shape of my life. In attending Victory Martial Arts, I feel more confident in my looks as well as my martial arts abilities. I would recommend Victory Martial Arts to anyone, no matter what shape or size because whether your goal is to lose weight, become more confident, or become a better martial artist, Victory Martial Arts will help you achieve it.

You'll gain more energy and feel better than ever before. Your work and study habits will improve as your concentration sharpens.

"The confidence I have gained is priceless."

In the short time I have been involved in the class I have learned more practical skills than I did with 3 years of tai-kwon-do. The classes have been geared towards my line of work and have made me aware of the many dangers facing me in the street and how to defend myself from them. The confidence I have gained is priceless. I recomend this class to anyone serious about their job. It really makes you a better person.
