HIGHLY recommended. Since I started training here, I have quit the bottle. I have lost 20lbs. My cholesterol levels have stabilized and I awake every morning feeling refreshed and invigorated. My wife and also my dog have both returned home. My wife has also lost 20 lbs and my dog has repaired my pickup truck and installed a new head unit and subwoofers with money he made working at Publix.

The dojo itself is beautiful. Guy Sensei and Don Sensei offer excellent instruction, and together have nearly fifty years of experience in the study of Aikido. In addition to the impressive instruction, the other members of the dojo are quite experienced martial artists themselves. As a visitor from out of town, I have always found the teachers and students here warm and inviting. I wholeheartedly recommend visiting this dojo if you are at all interested in cultivating a serious study of martial arts.
