He started as a total beginner with pretty rough footwork and couldn't do a takedown to save his life. Now, just a few months in, he's steadily getting better and better, his footwork is way more solid and he's actually landing takedowns with confidence. Big shoutout to Coach Garrett for the progress. Found this place through Instagram and it's been a great find. The coaching clearly focuses on building fundamentals the right way instead of rushing kids along. Highly recommend if you're looking for a good martial arts program for your kid.

He's made new friends and genuinely looks forward to going to class twice a week. Mr. Garret and Miss Nancy are amazing and really care about the kids. I'm so happy we found Ronin and would definitely recommend them to other families!

The negative review is not from real students/families. The neighboring business has had friends attack this awesome school over people parking in front of their business in an open parking lot. My husband and I have been training at this school for about 10 years. Master Peecher has so much joy for teaching that it really shows through! I have health issues that limit my abilities, and that's okay. Master Peecher stresses that it's one's own journey, so you only compete with yourself. He has so much patience for us all. There are and have been many special needs/autistic students. We are all treated with respect and patience. Great importance is placed on having fun while learning discipline, confidence, respect for others, and physical fitness.

Terrible money grab place that wants you to sign contracts and the adults that get you to sign contracts never do their job and actually instruct the kids. The advertised instructor Brandon I never once seen him. They hand out the next color belt so easy without the kids knowing what they are even doing. There are kids 7 years old with black belt. Place is a joke! I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone! Your children will never learn even basic self defense here stop wasting your money.
