What an awesome place to train. As a woman, it gets quite intimidating rolling with guys but the other students and professors here do not make you feel uncomfortable at all. If anything, they teach you and make you feel welcome. You get to go on your own pace and I LOVE THAT! No one is here to beat each other up, we learn from each other and that’s the kind of school we were looking for. We absolutely love this place and will continue to be here to learn this wonderful art.Thank you, Professor Michael R. for being patient and being such a great teacher. You rock and this school rocks!

I really like how the instructors give a lot of one on one time with the kids. There’s Boxing classes on one side and Jui Jutsu on the other. My son loves coming.
