Experiencia fantástica: Lots of fun performing with 4 on the floor band! This place Rocks!

Experiencia fantástica: We love this place. They work with teaching kids safety and how to handle bullies without violence.

Experiencia fantástica: Best place to train ! The owners are nice and knowledgeable. Everything is well organized . And it’s a good clean environment. If you looking for a good place to learn self defense this is it ! Great for kids. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter is learning valuable life lessons and Jiu-Jitsu. She is excited to go back every time.

Experiencia negativa: In the past year the inconsistent hours of classes & trainers that rotate in an out leave for a not so satisfying training experience. The focus was on self defense and they have moved toward competition or what ever whim they see fit. Not showing up for scheduled classes and canceling at last minute.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to train! Recently started training after being away for over 10 years, and they have made my transition back much easier. Highly recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: Love training here they are family great climate to train safely and learn proper techniques

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome time! Instructors are great, very knowledgeable, patient and exciting. Family atmosphere. Our kids are look forward to the next class.

Experiencia fantástica: This school has been the best for me and my kids. Very welcoming and patient. They truly understand that people have lives and careers that interfere with training at times. John and Valerie are genuinely interested in their students but also in making the community better. The instructors are very professional and have an exceptional skill set that they willingly share and patiently teach. I love being part of the family.

Experiencia negativa: I spent a week or so talking to someone on fb messanger. She was great, she answered all my questions efficiently. She sent me a couple different photos of their official rates and schedules and none of them said anything about a registration fee however when I came in to pay and sign my child up I was told that there was a registration fee of $50 this was only one of a few issues. The person I talked to online who made everything seem great wasn't there which I understand she was away for work that's fine. However instead I had to deal with the owner. He was rude! I understand when people are busy, I understand y'all were transitioning classes that was not a problem. The problem was one, the hidden fee, the rudeness of the owner, the feeling of the environment, and the somehow miscommunication. I even went back and re-read the msgs to confirm everything thinking I missed things. I can go further and into more detail but I won't. Again I say this place is not for a struggling family who just wants their child to learn self defense. This is our experience. You may have a different one.
