The main reason I decided to put my 3 year old in Karate was for him to gain confidence and stand up for himself. It’s been 2 years since he’s been going to Karate and I have to say the instructors here are amazing, they have helped my son with so much and I’m so thankful. They seem so passionate about their job and work so well with every kid. My son loves his teachers and appreciates them so much. A great martial schools overall. I can’t wait for my daughter to join soon as well.

Yes so the teaching and discipline is excellent. I had my grandson 6yrs old attend, he lost his dad ( my son). I figured this would help him deal with the anger he was feeling of losing his dad. Came summer time, I let Mastor Lee know that we would not be there for a few months. Ok , but they continued yo withdrawal payments from my account. For a good 3months. I Disputed this with my bank, And they did give me my money back. But when I returned back home, They would not allow my grandson to Attend unless I paid the three months that they took out of my Account when my grandson was not attending and I had already let them know that he would not be attending. So long story short, I went in and spoke to them about it. Everyone was nice, and told me they would give me a call, when my grandson could start again. They never called. Long story short, it didn't hurt anyone, only my grandson. So if you have money to give away , and pay for a service that is NOT being used for 3months, this is the place to go.

Unfortunately, my experience with this school was very disappointing. Here’s what happened: - I bought a 5-class trial for my son, and when we arrived for what should have been his last class, we were incorrectly told he had already completed all five. - The staff member was rude and didn’t even let my son step on the mat. - Under pressure, I ended up signing up for a membership that also includes BJJ classes. - A few classes later, my credit card was charged for a belt test I never authorized (they refunded it only after I complained). - After that, I was told that if my son doesn’t take the Taekwondo belt test, he can’t attend BJJ classes (what?) - Parents are pressured to buy expensive gear packages, even when cheaper options exist. Overall, the experience was confusing, high-pressure, and disappointing. I would not recommend this school.

This team is very very unorganized and hard commutation because I sign up for my son plan is month to month, no commitments and he got a bad injury accidentally at home when he playing high kicks back kick , he fall off on his face and teeth was broken and gum was swollen lip was broken, I took him to the emergency then the next day I took him the dentist to fix his teeth .. conclusion I had been so busy and stressed then since at that day he couldn’t join the training at all and we make decisions to inform them to cancel the training then they said I have to inform 30 days upfront to cancel otherwise they will charge for the next month so I agreed with that. But the next week they asked me to proof the ER records so they can wave for next payment then I proved it and then they said ER records didn’t indicate he’s not to participate to the training and they asked do I have another doctor record saying not to participate the training? Folks ,think about that your kids have a bad injury do you still want to sent their Karate class even ER records didn’t say he or she not to participate the karate classes? I don’t understand what they mean I don’t even remember their karate classes when I have family emergency conditions.That’s nonsense, and I been proven the documents, they ask me unprofessional questions. Disappointed
