“Been going to Maxout judo for years. The owners are wonderful people, and even better teachers. They can train anyone from a beginner with no background to professional fighters. They can make you into a judo olympian if you're willing to put the training in.“

“I was looking for another wait to try to improve my fitness level, and eventually came across Two Ravens Fencing via internet searches. As a suburbanite, I was a little wary about the location, and as a complete novice to martial arts, I was a little concerned about the degree to which I'd embarrass myself. After about a month of attendance, I feel comfortable advising anyone interested in attending that it's safe to disregard both of those concerns. Regarding safety - I attend classes on the weekends and at night. I've never felt unsafe. The parking lot is fenced, and the building is well secured. It's as safe as a facility loaded with swords can be. Regarding the novice issue - Coach Stone and his staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. There are students from a broad range of ranges - from kids to senior citizens - from a broad range of cultural backgrounds. Everyone seems tremendously welcoming. The coaching is incredibly patient. I know I'm endlessly making novice mistakes - and certainly repeating the same ones. In spite of this, the coaches let me make my mistakes, and then work to educate me so that I try to make incremental improvements. Beyond that - this is a ton of fun. It's a fantastic workout, and it teaches all kinds of coordination and situational awareness.“

“I dropped in for a Thursday night class while in town for work. You couldn't ask for a more welcoming atmosphere. Great class, fun rolls, amazing people. 10/10 would train here again.“

“Amazing teachers/masters helping the kids. Very friendly, encouraging, and focused on helping kids gain confidence. Great place.“

“Everyone here is fantastic. We have been coming here for my son since Feb 2022 and have since, signed up our daughter, as well. Master Ripepi greets everyone with the warmest smile as soon as they walk through the door and is sure that everyone feels welcome. Master Plain and Master Woide do a fantastic job of running the classes. They not only teach technique, but also the importance sportsmanship, respect, focus and most importantly *Self-Confidence*. I cannot speak highly enough of this school and am grateful for each and every week that we found it.“

“Wonderful program, builds character and fortitude, I appreciate the time, energy and attention the instructors invest in each student. My grandson loves it!!!!“
