Personally, he literally made sure my number was in your phone & that I had his # the instant I initiated for a personal training. 3.

As far as a coach can go, he always knows when who needs what & most importantly who needs to problem solve for themselves before his assists.

Most of the classes I found were housed in inconvenient locations with classes running right around rush hour so I kept putting it off. I just happened to be driving up York Rd. when I noticed Kanjizai Dojo and called immediately. We were offered 4 free classes to see what my son's interest level would be. From the first class he loved it! The sole reason for the this is the amazing instructor Kevin Lockett. Imagine if you will, ten to fifteen unfocused, wound-up 4 to 8 yr olds all learning at different levels. He must be the most patient man on earth. He manages to keep them focused, learning, and having fun all at the same time. My son is so proud of himself after every class. I highly recommend this martial arts school and I understand that he is just as patient and effective with adults!
