Members praise the welcoming atmosphere and supportive instructors who focus on proper technique in traditional Shotokan karate. Several reviewers mention getting good workouts and feeling positive about their training progress, with specific appreciation for COVID-19 safety measures. However, a former student expresses concern that the teaching emphasizes sport karate over practical self-defense applications and lacks intensive conditioning. The gym's affordability is noted as a benefit, though some suggest the training quality reflects the lower cost.

As a ex student of this club I would say it's so so as it's basic in it's teaching ,it's a club the teacher basic technique very little to no self defense is taught and for many that's okay. Fine for basic practice( no real hard training to forge the body) but the oject of the teachings are based on sport karate guys as opponents and not self defense or street defense in a martial arts sense.The claims are about building character not winning or losing and true self defense should be about real combat. 2 and a half to 2 star at best. Ex Brown Belt over two and a half years at that rank with more than 1and a half of it at 1Kyu. Rank Very inexpensive class for those with financial issues but you get what you pay for.
