My son has been attending classes here for about two years and has been progressing great! He participates in private lessons once a week as well as in the classes and he really made great strides. Not only that, but the Sensei (Emily, in particular) have taken a personal interest in making sure that my son not only advances with his skills, but learns responsibility, respect and work ethic. The only reason I didn't give the Studio 5 stars is because of the cost. It is definitely an investment. For example during one month I paid $170 for the lessons, $160 for sparing gear, then had to pay $100 for my son to test for his next belt testing (you have to pay additional cost for every testing). If you had that all up, it is quite the investment for a 9 year old boy. I feel like that cost could discourage kids and parents in community from attending. Also, my son has referred 3 friends to also join because of how much he likes it and there were no referral benefits (not even a thank you) for doing so, which I feel in an usual business practice. But I guess at this point the business is so established, they may not feel like that is necessary.
