Impact Kickboxing Cardio isn't a professional environment for children nor adults. This place…read morecondones bullying and violent behavior that is morally wrong, and they accept and allow it during both kid and adult classes. The coach says that he is here to teach the kids how to defend themselves from bullies in the real world, but yet allows the kids to bully each other during the kickboxing class. I've witnessed firsthand on several occasions the coach allowing the kids to hit each other full force without stopping it once it escalates to something more serious. Another thing to note is that the headgear isn't mandatory or enforced at this facility. A child is more susceptible to get a concussion when they don't have headgear, which can negatively impact a child causing chemical changes in the brain and sometimes damaging their brain cells. His class motto is "If they hit you hard you hit them just as hard or harder back." I brought my kids to this facility for them to learn self-defense in a safe healthy environment. I didn't sign my kids up so they could feel scared or attacked by their fellow colleagues. This is supposed to be a healthy learning experience, not a place they fear. My daughter was put to spar against a boy twice her size, and her opponent would fight to try and hurt her not caring if he hit her too hard. His mission was to ultimately hurt her if he was given the chance. The coach doesn't think this kind of mentality is wrong. The coach would pair kids up this way during class not caring if the kids were of the opposite sex or bigger than the other or not on the same kickboxing experience level as the other. And as if bullying and violent behavior amongst the kids weren't enough, you also see parents on the sidelines yelling at their kids to behave in an overly aggressive manner. Parent's are allowed to yell and coach their kids to hit others in the face without limitations. This can negatively impact the children by making them feel uncomfortable, embarrassed, insecure, humiliated, and give them anxiety. The coach should be ensuring that this place is a place of fun, and skill development, not condoning bullying and violence. The parents should be supporting their kids in a positive manner, not bashing them from the sidelines. Coach Jeremy doesn't recognize the difference between guiding the children and verbally mistreating them during class. So with that being said this is NOT a place I'd recommend if you're looking for professionalism and a safe learning experience.
