If I see one more charge for 185 come out of my account I'll go to the ends of the earth to make sure this place loses business. Also, Brett or Brent whatever his name is a tool. My 10 year old begged me to quit because he felt like he picked on him. Thought it was my kid until I talked to other parents.

Months later with no notice, no bills at all, I get a call from a collections agency demanding over $500. This is all over a gym membership, which I'm not using because I can't attend the classes anyway. Also their classes consist of reciting information from their website and a series of horribly childish activities like sommersaults. Most of their students are teenage or preteen boys. Most classes no girls attended and most students leave every class without having broken a sweat at all. They practice pre-memorized self defense moves, but not sparring to actually try and use their skills. The head instructor does not teach most of the classes. He's too busy with his other money making ventures like book writing to bother with teaching. The main instructor I had was only a first degree black belt in the art and had little to no teaching experience. Also they have no hygiene - one kid peeled a large number of pieces of skin off his feet in the middle of class and no one stopped him. He just left a pile of skin bits on the floor. One of the grossest things I've ever seen. Just for perspective, I had seven years of martial arts experience before starting at this place. Including a second degree black belt in Kung Fu and training at 4 other schools (I moved around and switched from taekwondo to kung fu) over the years). I never saw any place act like this!

I've heard about Seven Star Gym few years ago, but I was hesitated about joining because I didn't…read morethink I would be able to train in Hop Gar or MMA. I thought you have to be taller or bigger to be able to train in this. Years later, I decided to reach out to Sifu Heintzman for class schedule and came to check out on the class one evening. I came back again few weeks later, with intention to ask questions, but Sifu asked me to join the group and participate in the free workout that night. I joined the gym after the class. Now I really enjoy coming to class because I always learned something new and both the students & instructors are super nice & helpful. Sometimes, work & other thing in life got in the way to prevent me from getting to class, but I try to make it the best I can. I highly recommend Seven Star Gym for everyone who wants to get a great workout, learn self defense techniques, and be a part of this Kung Fu family. Don't worry about if you can or cannot do it, just come and check it out for yourself. You will love the training, your fellow students, and highly skilled instructors that are willing to help to make you better. It's true that being a part of this gym is like being a part of an extended family.

Normally I train about 1 to 1.5 hours a everyday but this 2 hour no gi class was one hell of a workout for me. We started with some conditioning to get warmed up (way better than running around in a circle to warm up) then went into the tech of the day. After that we had rounds. And rounds. and more rounds. Man I was exhausted when I left. They train and fight hard. All of his students are friendly and eager to learn and grow. Scott is a legit black belt and WRECKED me for two whole rounds. Worth It. If you are looking to get in shape, stay in shape, or learn how to be a monster on the mat this is the gym for you. I can not recommend this place enough. The vibe is so chill yet everyone is there to get down. Great for beginners all the way through to experienced grapplers. Come test yourself mentally and physically and Wilson premier jiu jitsu gym!
