This facility is wonderful. Lots of flexibility on lesson times and convenient location. My child is am emotional being and and progressed to a purple belt with the staffs patience. Mr Bergonia and Mr. Billburry are un-matched with skill and patience. Truly takes a special person to be a good teacher and they excel. They are just as patient with all ages and abilities.
I was looking for self-defense classes and found this one near my house. It's really an incredible program. It's a joint boxing-brazillian jiu-jitsu course for a very affordable price. Coach Andre is welcoming and a great instructor. Everyone is really friendly, too. You'll get an amazing workout and learn to properly defend yourself. I also tried out the joint-BJJ program and it's even more chill. Everyone in class introduced themselves and are willing to help newcomers. No need to be intimidated at all. I highly recommend this place for anyone 👌🏼
Very well run operation. Our children are enrolled in the karate program. Testing does not automatically guarantee a pass, which builds ownership and responsibility. They also teach behavioral values, like respect and endurance. Highly recommended.
*Update* Frankly, I am UPSET! I knew we were leaving an incredible school when we moved, but it wasn't until we were looking in to new schools at our new location that it fully set in! The school as a whole, but especially Mr. Rios, have set the standard so high for what we are now looking for in a school, that I feel like we're searching for another unicorn in a once in a lifetime unicorn world! After trying out three schools so far, the quality of instruction, interaction, discipline, and respect lacks compared to what we're used to from this school. We've Vento SETTLED on a school to keep them practicing something they've grown to love from attending here, but our hearts will forever be here! If you're even a little bit thinking about getting your child(ren) in to martial arts, this is the school you want them to be at!!! April 2021: I cannot say enough good things about this karate school! Both of our daughters worked primarily with Mr. Rios, who is an amazing teacher, but all the instructors here are on that same level! Our kids were shy and timid in front of other people, even in front of us, but learning and practicing this art, paired with the individual and group instruction, gave them confidence, discipline, and drive! Even throughout the circumstances over the past year, the school has done everything they could to continue to provide quality instruction and stay within guidelines and parent's/student's comfort levels. Sadly, we're moving across the country, but I am forever grateful for the character and pride attending this school has given our children!
The owner Andy and all the teachers Mr. Rios, Miss Ortez, and Mr. Bradley are amazing it's definitely a family oriented atmosphere. They're great with teaching the children of all ages, not only do the kids learn self defense they also learn discipline, confidence, and how to work as a team. They also have boxing classes and Jujitsu would recommend it's for ALL ages.
