Where to begin??? This establishment doesn’t even warrant the name. How they are still in business, I have no idea. The dojo employs very unprofessional sensei — like they just picked someone up off the street! He does not take into account the safety and personal boundaries of the students at all! Now, beyond that, the facility is in dire need of a major facelift. I almost expected to see cockroaches running past the entrance. It may look badass on the outside, but this dojo leaves so much to be desired once you step inside. The mats are worn, the equipment is outdated, and the whole place feels like it’s one bad day away from collapsing. - DMan2002
