Both of my kids earned their Black Belts, and I'm still going because I like it so much! I lost weight, am in better shape than when I was in my 20's, and I can do things I didn't think I'd ever be able to do! I don't watch martial arts movies wishing I could do those things, I go practice them instead! Regarding the poor review, when people don't give their kids a chance for more than a month of lessons in ANYTHING, their kids won't learn much. Has anyone only given their kids 4 weeks of piano lessons and wondered why their kids didn't learn much? And, as an adult, never sign anything without reading it. It sounds like someone was looking for someone to blame rather than trying to teach their kids a lesson in hard work so they could actually earn something and start learning valuable life lessons. I wish they had given their kids a chance!

Now, as an adult, I occassionally go when I happen to be visiting town. The staff are caring and truly great people. The teachers are full of energy and positive. Pricing, according to the website, appears to be very, very reasonable for a gym, but they don't have 'perks' that I've come to find 'normal' for most gyms -- such as towel service. The infrastructure hasn't really been updated since I was in grade school, so while clean, its showing its age. The equipment is also showing its age a bit/there is sometime not enough equipment for large classes (only 14 spin bikes for example). Overall, this is a fine gym. I'd recommend a re-visit of the class schedule as the class times overlap if you want to go from one to the next, you have to leave the first early.

We reached out to multiple places in town and they were the ones that provided a more comprehensive overview. We have been going to Fusion for a few months now and could not be more impressed with the facility, all they offer, and Megan's teaching. We have seen a huge improvement in our son's attitude and behavior. Megan shows she cares, but also demands (and deserves) respect from the kids. We are so happy that we joined Fusion and plan to stay for a long time! Thank you!!

I started my daughter with the school when she was 7 years old, uncoordinated and the farthest thing from physically inclined. Now, five years later, my daughter had poise, confidence, high self esteem, and had gained a lot of physical attributes including muscular arms and legs, balance, and coordination. Seeing my child succeeding and benefiting from her training gave me a strong desire to join her on her climb through the ranks. I signed up a year after she began, and saw the benefits immediately. Not only did I get a tremendous workout on a daily basis, but was constantly filled with pride in my own achievements throughout my training. Four years later I feel stronger, safer, more confident, more outspoken, more adaptable to change, more accepting of criticism, and more capable in all aspects of my life. Like my daughter I never thought of myself as physically inclined and was never into sports... karate is as much a sport to me as it is an art, a challenge and a lifestyle. I would not give up my training for anything. Thank you AOK for everything you've given myself and my family.
