From the welcoming first day to the easy scheduling and flexible class options, our experience has been excellent. On our daughter's first day, she was understandably a little nervous, as many children are in new environments. The coaches immediately made her feel comfortable, encouraged her to try new things, and helped her build confidence. She absolutely loved it. The flexibility they offer for scheduling upcoming classes is also amazing. The app is very user-friendly and makes it simple to make changes when needed. I would highly recommend this place to friends and family looking for a great activity and a positive martial arts experience for their child.

There are about 20-30 people participating in the jiu jitsu class, ranging in all ages and levels from what I can tell. Coach (Noro) runs the Muay Thai classes on Monday and a Tuesday nights. He is an amazing coach, very technical, knowledgeable and runs his classes really well. The class does include all levels and abilities. I was partnered up with an experienced fighter and a group next to us were beginners. The best part about the class in my opinion is the hands on partner work. We are constantly in groups and working on everything just like a real Muay Thai fight. You learn very fast in this format in my opinion. The gym is clean and solid size. Bathrooms are clean too. Highly recommended.

We went through the first three mazes fairly quickly the first house we tried was a chemical plant. It was missing some actors in spots that really would have hit. I am a scare actor so I was kinda let down more people didn't jump at working this event or maybe could have had call offs or no shows. Either way the set designs were amazing! My fave being the pizza place with animatronics. I loved the kitchen and the ticket redeem counter sooo good! The sliders were good wish there were more. The other highlight of this event was the bayou boat ride! Yes ride I said that. The creative minds turned the lazy river into a swamp bayou. I loved it so much. The price for the entry was too high. $150.00 for three of us and there wasn't re-entry to mazes. Most haunts are cheaper so you can get more people wanting to come. Knott's scary farm is $60, if you have theme park prices there should be theme park type entertainment with scare actors photo ops with them and more scare zones. It was a nice evening fall time event for myself and my teens. I hope to see more progress next year. You can only get scarier We scare because we care
