For example, we had some tough waves coming in out of the blue for my daughter and niece, who've never been surfing before. Instead of them getting beat up out there, she rescheduled us. This was very nice and she didn't have to. She MOST definitely delivers in her promises to make sure they don't get a "bad taste in their mouth" out there. If you're looking for someone to trust with your kids...She's the one! She caters to all ages and won't disappoint! I'm looking forward to doing a lesson for myself in the near future with her too! She's an amazing professional that Flagler is truly lucky to have!

The staff seemed less than thrilled that the kids were here. They close at 6, and we're acting pretty antsy as closing time approached.

C'mon, Palm Coast - you guys can do better.

Our entire family (utter beginners, lol) took surfing lessons with Sean a few weeks ago and had a…read morefantastic time. He was prompt with communication and was there waiting for us when we arrived. After brief instruction on the sand Sean patiently pushed us in time and time again and coached us as we went. I'd never surfed before and I have to say it's much harder than it looks (as are most things we try for the first time). My 6yo daughter was nervous at first but Sean switched tactics and found a way to get her to LOVE it. He actually had her stand up and hold on to his head for balance, lol. She went from "I'm scared" to "That was fun, can I do it again?!?" in just a few minutes. My 11yo son and I are short on the balance side so weren't as successful as my husband who was able to ride some waves in. Sean was laid back and timed it well between instruction on the sand, breaks and instruction on the water. Prices are great too. Each of us said we'd love to try again. I'm going to be working on popping up on dry land until I can do it on a board!

My wife and I really like that she has to earn her ranks and not just be given a participation trophy/belt after so many weeks. Sensei Rego is knowledgeable and truly dedicated to his art and his students. it's easy to see that this dojo is all about the student's progression and not about the tuition/fee, not to mention the prices are very fair.

I can't say enough good things in one review about Jukido Academy!…read moreI want to start off by saying that Sensei George Rego is FANTASTIC at what he does. He is so patient, kind, respectful & understanding. The dojo is set up very nicely, is so clean, and there is soft padding on the floor that keeps the students safe while being instructed. All of the students are very engaged, focused and determined. One of the many things that won me over in deciding to have my oldest son become a part of the Jukido Academy family was the fact that the older students are so very helpful during lessons with the younger students. Every student I have met has been kind, respectful & welcoming to my son & our family. All the students are expected to help each other during the practicing of Sensei's instructions. Sensei George & his other instructors are fun, energetic and 100% engaged at all times. The children's program meets twice a week and my son wishes it was every night because he loves it so much. The Jukido Academy has already given my son so much! He is more confident, self-sufficient, well behaved, respectful, patient and shows so much more pride in the work that he does during homeschool lessons, too! I love the core values that are the driving force here at this Dojo. They don't simply give out a new belt to a student simply because of attendance, so no "participation trophy". A progression in belt color may only be achieved through hard work and mastering of the skill-set for which that belt requires. I also love the one week free trial that they offer in order to ensure that the Dojo is a good fit for the student and their family. The monthly rate is 100% affordable and the Dojo is completely transparent regarding pricing, schedules and what is expected from the student and family. As a homeschooling, budget-minded mom of three, I don't like surprises, especially when it comes to $$. To be honest, the principles and values that my son has and will learn are priceless! Sensei George and the Jukido Academy have an open door policy and are very receptive to questions and concerns. I didn't really know what Jujitsu entailed and what exactly my son would be learning, so Sensei sent me videos and then took the time to explain further regarding what I would expect. I couldn't ask for a better instructor for my child & myself! I can tell that he is absolutely dedicated to the teachings of Jujitsu and I loved learning about this form of self defense. My son, Michael, is a unique child and is special needs. The fact that he has been made to feel welcome, proud of himself, and is flourishing at the Jukido Academy makes me so happy I could cry. So, in closing, if you are looking for a welcoming environment for your child(ren) to learn respect, self defense, discipline, honor, integrity, service before self, friendship, restraint, strength, humility and kindness, Jukido Academy is exactly what you've been looking for! Take advantage of the free week trial. I can promise that you won't be disappointed!

I put my child in this school because the public middle school had a bad reputation. Well, this was…read morea huge mistake. My son who always had exemplary behavior, got bullied daily by four children. Despite going to the director,Ms.Kelly Libby nothing was done. My son who was a happy child , started crying daily because nobody did anything about the bullying. I reached out to MsKelly to no avail. This one particular boy put a beeping Apple Watch in my son's ear at recess. I didn't find out till my son Logan told me a month later. I told ms.libby via email. Her response was "Oh it happened a month ago, he's no longer allowed to bring his watch" ok so she basically did nothing because it happened a month ago. This is just one example of what was done to my child. I later received an email from her stating there was no evidence of bullying and that I should contact my son's pediatrician. I guess she was implying counseling. My son had two sessions and the therapist felt there was no need to continue. Prior to me putting Logan in this school , he was a happy child. I noticed that was changing. Each morning he was crying and felt very anxious. After trying with the direction ms.Kelly and his teacher ms.esther I pulled him out. These people were supposed to provide a safe environment which they did not. My advice think twice before u put your child in this school.

I first enrolled her at Coastal Hope Academy (formerly Kids City USA), and after three weeks of trying, there was little to no improvement. She cried throughout the day, and I was repeatedly told that this was normal behavior. After the owner suggested that we stop speaking Spanish at home, I decided it was time to find a different environment for her. We transferred her to Ellison Acres Preschool, and what a difference it has made. From the very first day, my daughter was a completely different child. She would come home excitedly comparing the two schools, telling me how this one has so many toys, colorful chairs, a more comfortable place to nap, and how much fun she was having. What stands out the most is how the teachers make every effort to communicate with her and include her in activities, despite the language barrier. At her previous school, she often seemed isolated and as though she did not belong. Here, she feels welcomed, supported, and happy. The tuition is also more affordable, saving us about $60 per week. Another thing I truly appreciate is receiving a summary of her day, which allows me to know what she has been learning and doing. As a parent, that means so much. I am incredibly grateful for the teachers and staff at Ellison Acres Preschool. Seeing my daughter excited to go to school each morning has been such a relief, and I wanted to share our positive experience with other families who may be searching for the right place for their child. Thank you for the great care of my most value possession. Xio.
