Been coming to this gym a little over two years since I moved into the area and I think it's a…read moresolid commercial gym for a base of ~$34/mon! They have lots of cardio equipment and weight lifting machines and weights on 2 separate floors. They also have a small turf with sleds and a rope. Lots of TRX as well. There are multiple rooms for workout classes and boxing although I haven't taken those so I can't speak too much on it. They have some fun activities going on sometimes, like a live dj on some occasions. Some of the machines can be pretty run down and the plates are kind of worn but I've seen them be pretty diligent about repairs and replacements even if it takes a while. I don't take part in the personal training but it does seem more like a social hour than any formal training but I'm also not the client so I'm sure that's just personal preference! Overall not a bad spot for a work out if it's a close gym! They do also have a $15 day pass.

Upon walking in there is a nice sports gear store, then an open area with lots of comfy couches and what seems to be a bar to order food (perhaps while you are waiting for your soccer games to start, or to relax afterwards). Our son is taking a toddler soccer class and I mean that in the most general sense of the word. Basically, the kids (ages 2-4 it seems) run around, go through obstacle courses, kick balls here and there, play with hula hoops, sing songs, and learn social skills. It is a fun experience, though certainly it can occur other places besides here. The instructor really impressed me by memorizing the kids' names without prompting by the second class. How he did it, I don't know. I don't like soccer so I really can't judge their soccer facilities. But as kid's events go, this seemed to be exactly what was advertised and our son had fun running around and playing with the other kids.

I joined Pai's TKD right after my dad died. I was almost 40, out of shape, low self esteem. They…read moreworked with me, as they do others, to teach self defense, tools to use in life - without realizing it. It's more than forms, sparring, nunchucks and self-defense. It's about leadership, mentorship what you've learned. On a personal level, Pai's TKD helped me rebuild myself from the inside out at a time I needed it most. It's 2016 and I am currently working on my 3rd Degree black belt.. I wasn't too old to start.. I CAN do it and I keep doing it. I have the focus and determination to make it happen. I have another family that cares about my well being. I've also seen kids grow up - and they are respectful, on the right path in life. They have a great foundation to be our community's leaders. I can't say enough about how much this school has done - not only for me, but for so many. I am only 1 of the thousands of stories. A Black Belt is a White Belt who never gave up.

If you have a child 5-10 years old and youre looking to introduce your child to basic martial arts…read moreand displine Pai's can be a fairly good option to instill a good foundation for your child. However if you are looking for anything else stay very far away from Pai's. The pai's business model is based completely off the ignorance of the laymans. Pai's TKD is what's know in the martial arts community as a "McDojo" a school that is interested far more in churning out black belts for a price than they are in providing a legimate martial arts experience. Look no further than their black belt club program, they are very interested in locking their customers into 4 year contracts as it is the only way they can ensure a steady income. Tae Kwon Do as a martial art although having some legimate factors, it is completely ineffective as a self defense system and as a competitive martial arts (I.e. K-1 kickboxing or modern MMA). The pai's know this, as does everyone who has legimate combat sport experience as why they are incentivised to lock their new customers into contracts as their are many many better options on the market. If you are looking for a legimate martial art look for one that focuses on technique, resistance training and active resistance I.e. sparring. Even though sparring is a factor at Pai's, it is a very watered down system under World TKD Federation which boils down to glorified foot tag. It is ineffective in preparing individuals for the chaos that is involved in a real life situation. Ask yourself of the instructors that are present at the school, could they handle a punch in the face? Would they know what to do if someone bigger than them grabbed them and didn't let go?  Would you trust your physical safety to obese men, frail women and 17- 20 year old children? If you do chose to enroll your child at Pai's be very wary of the "STORM" and "SWAT" programs. This is the pair's way of having free labor. Your child can quickly become an indentured servant, espically if they grew up at the school. The yes sir, no sir mentality is instilled from day one at the school, if the pai's become their employers it is extremely hard to say no to them. Enroll you and your child in a legimate martial art and school that focuses on technique and active resistance training such as; jiu jitsu, wrestling, boxing, kickboxing, judo, or muay thai. A martial art that will provide you with legimate skills and actual confidence that comes from defending yourself against a resisting opponent. Not the type of boxed confidence that comes from a new belt every 3 months after remembering a form and paying X amount of dollars.
