I was immediately hung up on, with no further questions. This gym is a McDojo, and I wouldn't reccomend it for anyone that's seriously looking to improve or protect themselves. If you are a person looking for a place to exercise, maybe? I would not reccomend it as a place to learn how to defend yourself. (I rarely write reviews, so I've gone out of my way to write one on both here and Google.) Good Luck everyone and stay safe!

Best bet is to give it a try and see if it fits you.

At nearly sixteen years old, my son has not learned these tricks to this degree yet. While binge watching the Walking Dead he took notice of Morgan and his skills with Aikido. He started watching videos, then started reading about it. Before I knew it my kid was all over the back lawn making these moves. The Wife and I decided that maybe he was ready to start studying in earnest. At his first lesson his sensei showed him some amazing things he could do right away. Harnessing the power of the mind, as it were, which for an A.D.D. teenager is no small trick. Seeing his love of studying this new to him martial art we decided to sign on. Now, a few months down the road we are seeing tremendous benefits for him, and improvements. He also gives credit to Aikido for helping him through those last few hard weeks of 10th grade. The instructors are amazing, and patient, and see his potential. They give a first class for free, so what is your excuse for not trying?

It was the first time in my life I was able to do splits and really apply my ability to defend myself. Though my philosophy on self-defense / combat has changed considerably through my current practices of Jeet Kune Do, I still have a lot of respect for those who take the time to practice some aspect of self-defense. It's awesome for fitness and provides some level of self-discipline while channeling a whole new level of self-confidence. The process of belt promotions and facilities maintenance is sure to have changed since I first attended years ago. There were all sorts of students ranging from various ages and an even number of boys and girls. Prices were modest back then and are likely to be significantly higher now. Just remember that engaging in any type of martial arts is going to be pricey, it just depends on how what you might consider reasonable. For those who are looking for something different and a nice way to get fit, I encourage those in the area to seek Dave to begin a new journey in martial arts.

Aside from begin close to home what brought me in was the class title, Beginners yoga. I have no idea what the different kinds of yoga are or what class names mean, this was perfect for someone new who doesn't know what they're doing - class descriptions are great but this name just made it easier to book for me. The class itself was challenging but I also was made to feel like I could take a break when needed and, that I didn't have to do everything. This was key, I felt encouraged and supported to do what felt right. I'm feeling it the day after but it's a good tired and sore, I earned this. Again, being new I had no idea what I was doing and I felt like the instructor, Sam, was excellent. Sam explained the positions in an easy to grasp manner, was attentive to all of us, and also showed us how poses progress and what they look like doing them in a more advanced manner. I thought this was the best part of the class, I was able to see what I should do, instructed in how to get into position and helped in doing the poses when I needed. And, I got to see some variations on poses. For me this kind of teaching works best, an explanation and a visual, and then progression. I cannot stress how comfortable I was made to feel asking questions and not being very good. I'd gone down a google rabbithole about yoga before going to class and almost talked myself out of going but I have to say the atmosphere of the studio, Sam's explanations of what to do, how to do it and getting into why really helped me let go of apprehensions and just be there in the moment. I really like how we got to center ourselves before we started doing anything and at the end of class we took time to center again as a way to end the session. I am looking forward to going back and highly recommend Roseway Yoga.
