Best of Ashburn 2025 – 2026 – Martial Arts School
Excellence is Earned on the Mats
In 2025 and 2026, Kore Self Defense was officially named Best Martial Arts School by Ashburn Magazine. In a community with dozens of options, Kore was selected by thousands of local voters for our unique approach to safety, fitness, and mental toughness.
“Being the best is not easy,” as Publisher Bruce Potter noted in the 2025 awards issue. At Kore, we don’t train to win awards; we train to ensure our community is safe, capable, and resilient. This recognition is a validation that the Kore Standard is delivering real results for our students every single day.
