Triumph Martial Arts is proud to announce that it has been awarded the #1 Best Rated Martial Arts School in Des Moines by the Quality Business Awards, a distinction that places the academy among the top tier of businesses nationwide.
This prestigious award is only presented to a single martial arts school in each city, and recognizes exceptional performance across multiple areas—customer satisfaction, business integrity, and community impact. To receive a Quality Business Award, a business must achieve an overall quality score of 95% or greater, a benchmark that less than 1% of registered businesses in America ever reach.
“We are truly honored to receive this recognition,” said Matt White, Owner and Chief Instructor at Triumph Martial Arts. “This award reflects our team’s unwavering commitment to quality, integrity, and the personal development of every student who walks through our doors.”
Using a rigorous internal point scoring system, the Quality Business Awards evaluate businesses based on reputation, customer reviews from multiple platforms, responsiveness, low complaint volume, and long-term excellence. Additional consideration is given to businesses that demonstrate strong ethical practices, community involvement, and environmental responsibility.
With locations in Urbandale and Pella, Triumph Martial Arts has served central Iowa families for more than two decades with top-tier programs in ATA Taekwondo, Carlos Machado Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and KMF-AC Krav Maga. Known for building confidence, character, and life skills in both kids and adults, Triumph’s programs go far beyond physical training.
“This award validates the culture we’ve created,” added Chris White, Owner and Director of Women’s Programs. “We strive to make Triumph a place where every student feels valued, supported, and challenged to be their best—in class and in life.”
The Quality Business Awards recognize businesses across America that go above and beyond in delivering exceptional customer experiences, ethical business practices, and consistent excellence. With less than 1% of businesses earning this award, it is a powerful indicator of industry leadership and service quality. Learn more at www.qualitybusinessawards.com.
