We’re excited to share that Metamora Martial Arts has been recognized as a finalist for Best Karate / Martial Arts School in the Kids & Education category of the Peoria Community’s Choice Awards!
While I wasn’t able to attend the gala on November 5, I am incredibly grateful for the overwhelming support from our students, families, and community.
This recognition means a great deal to us—not just because it highlights our program, but because it shows the strength and pride of the Metamora community.
Being named a finalist among all of the martial arts schools across the greater Peoria area is an honor we don’t take lightly.
We’re proud to offer high-quality martial arts training rooted right here in Metamora.
This award is a reminder that the impact of a dedicated local community can be just as powerful as programs ten times our size.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote, share the link, and cheer us on.
Your support helps us continue our mission of building confident, capable martial artists of all ages.
We’re proud to represent Metamora—and even prouder to have you with us on this journey.
Keep reading to see all the 2025 winners!
