After some issues with another martial arts school in the area, it was time to take a look to see…read morewhat would be the best situation for our son. We tried a couple of the schools, but Warrior was the most accomodating and really tried to help him over what had happened previously and to make him feel a part of the Warrior family. I've found that they have the best balance between "stand up" training and "on the ground" work, done in a safe, controlled environment, with great instructors who really work with the kids to create a positive environment. The training includes an emphasis on respect, not only for the instructors at the academy, but for parents, school teachers and their peers, helping them to become "bully proof" without becoming bullies themselves. Additionally, parents can train for free, in classes set up for them. My wife participates in the stand up and grappling classes. You'd be hard pressed to find a place with a better set of instructors (the new McKinney instructor is a BJJ master from Brazil).

He appropriately holds his students to high standards and engages them in a way that makes them want to meet those standards. You will learn real skills, re self discipline here. Master Kim is patient and gives each student attention. He works with individual needs. He has a great team and Ms.Henley is very supportive and friendly. She works well with Master Kim rounding out the entire experience for the class. You're not a number here. You're a team member! Adding to this review: we are almost 1 year into this experience and again couldn't be happier and looks like we will be renewing the membership. We'll keep you updated. Our 10 year old son has long term goals with this program that he has developed on his own and hopes to be an instructor here some day.

Make sure you ask ALL the questions!. They invite you in, they give you a low ball price to get you…read moreand your kids excited. What's more pathetic is at the end of the low ball classes($49) they give you child a "belt". They they charge you for "registration" fee. Then a charge for each "belt-testing" with is every 4-6 classes. Then the monthly charges. Then, they charge you TWO MONTHS IN ADVANCE to stop taking this classes. We tried this for a month, after the 1st month, after the child gets used to the classes (which seems to be over crowded) they hit you with all that I mentioned above. Maybe it's me... it seems like these this is a Unethical way if doing business. I could understand if they were upfront and honest from the beginning.

EXTREMELY UNETHICAL BUSINESS PRACTICES!…read more I joined the gym in early 2024 and cancelled my membership in June of 2024. Apparently due to some sort of miscommunication, something went awry with my cancellation and it was either not received, not processed, or both. A YEAR AND A HALF AFTER THE FACT - in October 2025, I receive communication from a debt collector saying that I owe almost $1300 in back charges. This gym NEVER, NOT ONCE sent me any communication informing me that there was an issue with my account. I was not provided any notice whatsoever that there was a problem - no bill, no phone call, no text, no mail. Instead they just kept accruing charges FOR A YEAR AND A HALF without my knowledge and hit me with a $1300 collections bill. I was never given an opportunity to correct this beforehand, before it got out of hand. This is NOT the way a reputable business conducts themselves.

I'm really torn on this review. I enjoyed the convenience of the gym and it was rarely crowded…read more Quality and maintenance of equipment is just ok. Lots of taping over cushion cracks instead of replacing etc. And fitness equipment is definitely aging. My biggest frustration and cause for me to cancel my membership was over the most ridiculous business practice. I set up my payments with auto pay from a credit card. About a year into my membership the credit card expired and I forgot to update my card. ONE DAY after the due date I get a harassing collection call. A simple text message or email asking me to update my card would do just fine. Then I see a $25 "processing fee" on my credit card after I updated it. AC (the owner) replied that he's not charging me, but it's the billing company he outsources to and they charge when an account goes to collections. Sorry bud, but you picked them and they represent your name and reputation. Needing to update a credit card within a few days of due date isn't something that should "go to collections" in the first place. The fact they're willing to let a member leave over something so trivial and typical is beyond me. Recurring revenue on monthly auto pay is the life-blood of many businesses. There are plenty of payment solutions in the market that would make life easier on your customers.

My daughter loves training at this Tiger Rock! The instructors (led by Mr. Thibodeaux) exhibit…read moreconfidence, leadership, and integrity. I've also witnessed an increase of self confidence, assertion, focus and ability to follow instruction, not only in my daughter, but from every single kid in our belt level classes. Some progress faster than others, but definitive progress is obvious none-the-less. The ability of these instructors to instill those actions in kids is beyond what I've seen in other youth programs. Now, on to cost as referred to by some other reviewers. Yes, it's expensive. However, you get to go to an unlimited number of classes so you get out of it what you put in. If you go once a week, you'll get once a week value. If you go more, then you'll get more for your investment and see a faster development of skill. Every business can improve, and Tiger Rock is not immune to benefit from a tweak here or there. For example, they really need to pro-rate months like December when they're closed for two weeks. And I witnessed one communication snafu. But overall, we find a lot of value and growth in this program and plan to continue for a long time. Certainly deserving of the 5 stars.

He has been going there for a little over a year now, and completed the Tiger Club program. He has now turned 6 and moved up to the white/yellow belt classes. The main instructor is amazing with the kids... ALL of the kiddos. He has an amazing staff that assists with the kids. They offer classes all week long, and for a very low monthly tuition, you can attend as many as you like. My son is very excited to come home after class and show me the things he has learned. He was a bit of a hyper kid when he started, but I can definitely tell that he has matured through this program, and their instructors!!! They continue to impress us!! Highly recommend!
