Which means I paid for 2 months of essentially doing the same things when I had already learned the techniques. The worst part though is that two of the trainers who I trusted were always flirting and one of them did go further. I kept saying no and he kept pushing. NEVER come here if you're a woman. These were people I thought I trusted. They have no sense of professionalism and they will cross the line with women. Needless to say I stopped coming back. It's toxic masculinity at its worst.

I began looking for activities for him to do during the day that kept him in learning mode and constructive with his time. His desire to learn martial arts and this place having a summer program we're a perfect combination for us. We arrived for the class that they said would be most appropriate for a beginner like him and found a very welcoming environment. The owner David could not be a more perfect and welcoming person for the new visitors. He very quickly came to the door and greeted us as well as introduced my grandson to the other kids and introduced us to the other parents Guardians Etc. David's wife was there at the time and also worked very hard to make us feel as comfortable as possible. They quickly got my grandson in the studio and working out with the other kids who were as welcoming as mr. David and his wife. Between mr. David and the more advanced students they got him assimilated into their program and had who is really a typically pretty shy kid enjoying himself immensely. I considered it the best compliment to this studio when we got in the car afterwards and my grandson asked when he could come back

She's very informative, she'll walk you through anything and everything. They also offer birthday parties and adult self defense. It's very affordable too.
