My kids love this place! They can't wait to go back again and again. The place is very neat and clean. The staff is great and very welcoming. The instructors were also especially good with my 3 year old, who was very nervous for his first class; they encouraged him to join the class but never pushed him; They let him join in when he was ready, and I appreciated that.

Just started this school for my son, Mike is great! He gets you set up so you get the most out of your experience. School is a good facility with monitors in the lobby. Instructors are kind and skilled, something I appreciate without the intensity on the toddlers. Parents aren’t supposed to watch through windows which I find great because it gives the opportunity for the kids to grow themselves! Thanks Mike for inviting us in!

My daughter just started a week ago and it’s great! Very friendly environment and something to look forward too at the end of the day. The owner and teachers are also very kind and personable. I definitely see us continuing to come here, I recommend for anyone with kids 3 years old and older

Joined a little over a month ago. The Sensei's are very passionate and knowledgeable about martial arts, and you get to do a lot of different types of self-defense and structural practices. They also ask you what you'd like to work on upon occasion, which is quite helpful if you have specific goals in mind.
