It's a great place to get started both for martial arts as well as personality development; both for kids and adults. It's pretty clean, neat ambience, professionally managed and safe. They have multiple options to pick from multiple forms of Martial Arts, Judo, Jedi, Kickboxing etc. The staff is friendly and polite and environment is positive and welcoming. I had never before seen so many students continuing their training after black belt for higher levels in one place, as I see here.
I’ve been going here for around two years, before that I went to another academy that was my favorite place to go to after school, but because of Covid I stopped going there and once we were aloud to go outside and return to our normal activities my mom decided to take me here instead. They let me keep my rank and kept training me. I can say that this place is a new favorite. Teachers/Instructors are so cool and nice. Other students are very kind and nice as well, everyone at this academy are all like in a big family and I feel safe here. Overall I made a great choice coming here.
