There are a lot of McDojos out there. These are places that will teach you something for a few…read moremonths then charge you a fortune to get a belt. This is not a McDojo!! I've studied at a few different martial arts schools in the 21 years I've been training, and never have I experienced the techniques learned at this place. The instructor Dante has been doing martial arts for over 50 years all over the world. He has studied many different styles of martial arts including weapons and is a wealth of knowledge. If you bring a technique to Dante he will explore it for a whole class, showing variations and counters, then counters to the counters. It's refreshing not being in a class that believes that their style is the be all and end all of martial arts. Dante is also very open to new styles and ways of doing things. The class is primarily judo and ju jitsu and this is what the syllabus is based on. Rarely does the class stick to the syllabus though. I'm always fascinated with how the class always ends up going on different tangents. If you love martial arts you won't find another club like it!
