I have been training with Sifu Lawrence at this Academy for about two months now. Sifu and his colleagues are welcoming, non-judgmental, patient, and respect the fact that all enrollees, particularly adults, learn differently. Don't even try to find a better place. The buck stops here!

Everyone is a big family and loves and respects one another. The very first day I walked in there doors and observed the class, I immediately felt welcome. The instruction that is taught here is pretty much basic and straight forward but with grave detail. I immediately started feeling and seeing the benefits of my training after a few classes but I also understand there's a long journey that awaits :)
