Just found Legacy Crescenta Valley after eyeing Legacy Burbank the past few years. They just opened…read moreand they have a decent size class tonight. I'm looking forward to seeing this location grow. So far the Professor and other parents I've met at this gym have been very friendly. The gym is clean and a decent size. It's located in the same plaza as Monstera tea. If you navigate to the address there is no entrance to the parking lot from that street. Rather, look for Monstera Tea and park there and walk to Legacy at the corner end of the shopping center. The plaza is across the street from Aurora which is hard to miss. I'll have to update if we decide to join the gym and see how it goes!

My kids love it because they make learning jiu-jitsu fun with games and creative drills. Coaches Alex, Garo, Shahen and Professor Ruben and Arin are all great with kids and adults. I'm currently training in the competition class, and it's been a great experience. They focus on safety and real technique. Highly recommend this place for both kids and adults!

My son really developed a strong foundation in the fundamentals. We also loved the facilities. They're clean, modern, and a huge step above the typical strip mall-style gyms you often find around LA.

What initially drew us in was the care and attention that both professors give to each of the classes. I have long been curious about jiujitsu but it was also very intimidating. What finally motivated me to begin was the women's self defense classes on Sundays. It is open to all women regardless of previous experience (or in my case no experience) and Professor Amanda does a great job of making the classes fun, informative and challenging. The other women in the class are equally wonderful and inviting! The kids classes are also incredibly well structured and engaging. The instruction and care that goes into each class is evident by how much the kids enjoy participating and also how much of the new instructions they retain. We're so grateful for the amazing community that Amanda and Gabe have created!

I received on my Internet an invitation to go to defense…read morepractice organization for a 1 hour Presentation on how to shoot weapons, including high powered weapons and learn about self defense. I thought that sounds like a lot of fun. So I called the number and was able to secure an appointment a week later and received several emails during that week. Asking me to check off and sign a waiver and also told I could invite a friend. I decided to invite my best friend and later. We decided what day we could go and signed up. We got there a few minutes early and this place was really nice in burbank right off the five freeway near bueno vista avenue and found a parking spot and went in to the front where we were greeted by a receptionist who had us fill out the waiver again and check all the boxes and sign it, and then we were good to go. A very large man came out and said he was our trainer.And his name was robert, and he was an ex army man who had been stationed overseas and had.I've been in many real life.Dangerous situations in combat. He showed us many different training rooms, where he explained that they don't use real guns with real bullets, but they use laser guns or bullets that were round.And made of rubber. Different rooms taught different types of training. Including learning self defense techniques where people can basically learn many types of moves that they can make if somebody were to be attacking them.And they did not have a weapon or didn't want to start by using a weapon. He then took us into our own private training room and explained different laws and different techniques of how you should respond in Different scenarios and then put on videos for us to practice with. But the first thing he did was show us a target and had us use laser guns to aim and fire at a target. He taught us how to get a gun out of our holster properly.And how to aim and shoot and first in a relaxed situation.And then in a real life type scenario with a video in front of us, we were ask to respond as if it were a real life situation. All in all we both learned a lot. How to fun time? And at the very end, we were offered a membership for twelve months.Although it was a little expensive for our pocket books, it was tempting.And if I were maybe thirty years younger, I probably would have gone for it kind of like a gym membership. In any event, it was a great experience. And fun, and we learned a lot about the laws. And how you can defend yourself. And when you can shoot, and when you cannot shoot. So I do think it was worth the hour-long training just to learn that. And had a fun time, so I strongly recommend it, and I will take a picture of Roberts business card. So, if you would like to go to your 1 hour training session, you might call them up and see if you can't at least go. And check it out, like I did. And then you may decide you want to do it twice a month for a year, or longer.

U.D.T. a.k.a. Until Dollars Terminate!…read more I saw an ad online, went to check it out in person. Took a brief intro class, was brought into a room, and then pitched a deal so sweet, so persuasive, so promising, how could I say no? (I mean all they didn't offer were the keys to the building.) So in this strange pressured situation type deal, I signed up. BUT I still had questions... Like why am I stuck in a YEAR contract? And I can't change my mind or cancel past the initial 45-day time frame? Why couldn't I check out or try out the classes before committing? I wasn't even going to be able to start TODAY, but the guy had the gift of gab, and assured me it would be okay. Then promptly charged my card THE SAME DAY! I attended one session, it was cool... but still felt a little like eh.. Then I had to take a business trip out of town. This was an issue because I wouldn't be able to get the full experience of the trial, and without that how could I decide that it was for me or not? So called and explained the situation, and asked for an extension of the trial time. Well they had to call up the White House then eventually called me back. It seemed like an act of Congress to finally get the bill passed, to give me 15 more days! But after kissing up to the president and telling him how much of a nice guy he was, I guess they got the extension. So the REP called, told me I had 15 more days and off we went. But then the business trip got extended. I tried to tell the business people that I had to get back so I could attend my U.D.T. classes, since they never stopped charging me, even though I only attended once during the trial period. But then they were like, you want UDT or U want this rent money. And obviously UDT was not going to let me stay there... I mean they weren't that nice! So hit the rep again and let him know that I had to cancel A.S.A.P. I reviewed the contract again, and based on the extension I was given by the rep, I was still within my trial period, so I quickly sent an email to the office. The rep was nice and seemed to understand. The office went silent. Before I used to get an answer every time... now, they were like "excuse me, who are you again?" So called for like 3 days with no answer. Then I get an answer and tell them the situation, and well... They could charge my card and take my money instantly without needing management approval! But although they received my cancellation email etc... they had to again meet with Congress! And I guess Congress was on vacation in Hawaii or something, but rest assured WHENEVER THEY GET BACK... WE WILL LET YOU KNOW AND REACH OUT! (And apparently they are still gone... I'm sure making good use of my $200 a month). Well I argued back and said I don't understand... I cancelled and haven't attended classes, so why no refund? The lady then told me... well your card was charged on ___ day when you signed up, and even though you haven't been here, and informed us you would have to be out of the country, it's past 45 days now! So you don't qualify for your refund! Then I said hold on there Susie hot pants! I talked to the rep, they gave an extension and I actually have another week before the deadline! Her response was... "well if they know about it then they will let us know." And you know what happened next?? ANOTHER MONTHLY CHARGE TAKEN FROM MY ACCOUNT!!! Let's recap: Didn't use the membership classes, based on the extension I was given, I was still in my trial period, sent an email notifying them of cancellation, sent several messages to the rep, and still charged! All while waiting for the mysterious owner to get back and have YET to hear back till this day!! So I had to literally take things into my own hands and work with my bank to get it resolved! I then did some digging on them and guess what, I found multiple complaints on the BBB website describing experiences similar to mine (which I am headed to next to add my complaint)! This is insane! And again no follow-up, just crickets while they charge my card monthly for services I haven't even used! RUN AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! There are other options that are much better! Based on my experience, I felt like collecting my membership payments became a much higher priority than resolving my concerns. And once you're in... it felt nearly impossible to get out! (Well you can, but not the money they want to charge you for a year.) If it had really felt like resolving my situation was the priority, then Mr. President would have called to resolve this long before I had to write this review...!! I think I have been going through this since the end of May when I signed up! Serve your country in the military, become a veteran, only to have companies like this treat you this way! And I have never been treated this way with any other company! I will be sure to spread the word with my veteran and other communities to stay away from this organization!
