My son has been attending RPMA (Rising Phoenix Martial Arts) for 5.5 years now. It is a fun…read moreatmosphere but respectful. The brothers who are the instructors very knowledgeable (national champion status), patient, and caring When my son became disabled, they even did two on one individual classes with him. Now he is back in regular classes. They believe that a person should earn every belt and because of that, the students know that they have truly accomplished something when getting a new belt. I have seen kids come into the class and become confident, respectful and disciplined. The cost is very reasonable and the brothers easy to deal with. I highly recommend RPMA.

So literally all of my life, I have been filled w/nothing except for fear, & I knew that I was just…read moregetting sick of it I was tired of keeping my fear alive so ever since I started w/this Dojo my master helped me find something that I thought I would never find in my life. Confidence, & I've only been @ this Dojo for about 2 months & only go once a week. I'm not saying my fear is gone but im definitely saying that the more I go in that Dojo the more my fear disappears, so I not only trust the Dojo I trust my master 100% & I'm not only confident that my master will turn me into a badass I'm also confident that he will also help me get into the best shape of my life so thank you master Jack & I look really forward to this journey.

This gym is a universe! Stacy signed us up in the spring of…read more2025 and gave us an awesome tour of Club NW. We've since brought friends in to check out this great gym, and Tanya was happy to give us a tour as walk-ins--thank you! I'll update this review later, but so far, I've only ever found rock climbing gyms to be this exciting. I really appreciate the wide range of activities and options available here. It's kid-inclusive, disability-inclusive, and offers designated times and spaces to make certain areas safer for different groups. There's also a spa with many services, plus other highlights like a fresh juice and food café, saltwater pools, a rock climbing wall, hot tub, kids' area, online classes, and rotating displays of local artists' work each month. I ran into a family member and my obgyn which was pleasant. I could go on. It also happens to be a place where AMR ambulances are stationed while waiting for calls, which is pretty unique. Love it. The one downside I'll mention has to do with gym members, not gym itself. It is important to share though. One experience we had at the pool last July. While pregnant, I regularly swam laps as part of my exercise routine. One day, I invited friends visiting from Oakland to join my partner and me at CNW. One of my friends is an excellent swimmer and instructor. While we were swimming laps, we noticed repeated, intentional, and uncomfortable staring from a group of men in the hot tub. I asked if they were waiting for the pools or something. We were not breaking any rules, being disorderly, or abusing time limits. The energy was noticeable and felt by ALL of us. Perhaps it's worth noting that some older, Caucasian gym members may prefer an environment that reflects Oregon's earlier history. I'm not saying CNW itself is racist, but it would feel incomplete not to share what we experienced that day.

The kids club section is disgusting. They clearly do not clean or sanitize anything. The ball pits…read morehave mold. The toilets had feces on them, there was feces on the floor of the bathroom. We had a party here, which they plan after a full day of kids playing in there so it's not sanitized before. And they are worried about outside food or drink yet have literal sh*t on the floor. Our toddler is now sick from being there, definitely will never be back.
