Located in the heart of West Boca Raton, we call ourselves "The Next Wave in Martial Arts". We let our teaching and our commitment to ongoing training be our main calling card.
We are proud of our work ethic and the service we provide to our clientele. We live by our commitment to three basic tenets of success:
COMMUNITY – TEAMWORK – ACTION!Community – We are connected with our students and their families. We also recognize that we are members of a larger community in Boca Raton/ South Florida and our worldwide martial arts family.
Teamwork – We certainly believe very strongly in personal responsibility, but we know that great things can be accomplished through cooperation and a shared commitment.
Action! – "A Little Less Conversation, A Little More Action" as Elvis said. We know that talk does not get the job done. We will not suffer from “paralysis of analysis”; just as we work very hard to get our lessons applied on the mat, we get involved with local schools, businesses and charities off the mat.
Last Feb I went down to visit my brother (mr Haas) and he introduced me to his world.I had never seen him at do anykind of martial arts or interact with people of all ages....I went to a belt ceromony and I was just blown away!!!!!!!!!! He made it fun ,respectfull and serious all at the same time.As one of his older brothers I will say this "he is my role model" and I witnessed first hand the respect he recieves from his students and the parents of the students...and the respect he gives back just made me proud to be his brother........keep up the great work!!!!!!!!
These folks are AWESOME! The Haas family and guest instructors are great to work. Everyone feels welcome when they step into the school. Go give it a try...you will want to stay!
Excellent family owned and operated martial arts school. Instructors teach with discipline and love to help students gain strength, respect and confidence. Keep up the fantastic work!
The great thing about this school is that it is not just a "belt factory". My son is learning life lessons (along with the karate) like self-discipline, confidence, and self-control. As an adult student myself, I am learning a lot about myself while I am learning self-defense. Perhaps most importantly, Mr. Haas is teaching us to think on our feet and to not freeze up in unusual or stressful situations. I suppose you learn that in most martial arts schools, but what I like about Mr. Haas and his wife is that they make an effort to get to know each student, adult and junior alike, and to make them a "part of the family".
East Coast of Self Defense under Mr. Russ Haas offers the highest quality martial arts instruction for children and adults in the Boca Raton area. No matter if you are a parent looking to develop life skills in your child or an adult looking to learn some valuable self-defense and stay in shape, East Coast of Self Defense is the place to be!
Mr. and Mrs. utilize the perfect combination of demanding respect and discipline from the children while making it very fun and enjoyable for them at the same time. It's the perfect combination!
