I can sum this business up in one word: McDojo. I'm honestly sad because I wanted to like this…read moreplace, not for myself but for my kids. Unfortunately instead of being a place of learning, like my husband experienced taking karate as a child here in Durant, it's nothing more than an expensive belt factory. I expected a monthly fee, not a problem. What is a problem is having children test for their next belt within two weeks ($60 per test) of even starting. They haven't even learned anything worth testing for in literally 3 hours of overall practice time. And then to be told to expect them to test every two months if not more..that's not how this works. There is no set time that they should be ready to test. If you go to a class and look around you will see tons of children running around with different colored belts. Very young children. And there are quite a few with black belts. If that isn't the biggest indication that this is a McDojo, I don't know what is. So basically unless you have money to blow so that your kids can run around and have fun, and a lot of closet space for their spiffy colorful belts, I'd skip this place.

My family and I enrolled in Talon Martial Arts nearly 3 years ago, after we had a disastrous…read moreexperience with another academy. Master Quay, Mister Jeff, and the rest of the incredible staff made us feel right at home. First off, we learned right away that we were learning Youn Wha system, I couldn't tell you what system of martial arts we were learning before, but it was incredibly modified. We had to learn to properly chamber punches and kicks, and even some new techniques that were not taught at our previous school. With help from the instructors, and a little hard work, we got caught up quickly. Since then my family has gone on to compete in tournaments, gain confidence, and meet new people all over the country, that have been very supportive of our family. We now have two black belts, a red belt, a blue belt, and a green belt. I would strongly recommend Talon Martial Arts for anyone looking to loose a few pounds, learn leadership skills, gain additional confidence, all while meeting great people.

Make sure you ask ALL the questions!. They invite you in, they give you a low ball price to get you…read moreand your kids excited. What's more pathetic is at the end of the low ball classes($49) they give you child a "belt". They they charge you for "registration" fee. Then a charge for each "belt-testing" with is every 4-6 classes. Then the monthly charges. Then, they charge you TWO MONTHS IN ADVANCE to stop taking this classes. We tried this for a month, after the 1st month, after the child gets used to the classes (which seems to be over crowded) they hit you with all that I mentioned above. Maybe it's me... it seems like these this is a Unethical way if doing business. I could understand if they were upfront and honest from the beginning. If you send your child to this place... make sure you ask ALL the questions. They like you to sign the contact with our reading the whole thing. Owner: BE HONOST WITH PEOPLE

The gym itself is very well kept and is definitely one of the cleanest gyms I've ever been to. They also have tons of different equipment they use throughout class and are good about teaching you how to use said equipment as well. They do offer private lessons, and with Master Lee's background, whose a 6th-degree black belt who trained under renown taekwondo instructor Grandmaster Yim, you won't find better in the DFW-area! Lastly, they're great about communication and showing care for their students' well-being and progress. Overall, I would definitely recommend their gym to anyone I know no matter where you live in the DFW-area!

We signed up for what we were told was a simple 3-month trial program. At the end of the trial, Miss Henley rushed my husband as he was leaving class and pushed him to sign a "renewal" agreement without ever disclosing it was a legally binding 1-year contract.Due to a family relocation, a newborn baby, and sharing one vehicle, it became impossible for our child to attend. When we physically went to the facility to request a cancellation, the staff clearly ignored us being present, rudely claiming they were "too busy in class" to speak with us.

She informed us that they are no longer with ZenPlanner, and suddenly she magically had the power to cancel it himself--but only if we paid the remaining contract balance in full! To make matters even more dishonest, they keep shifting their own rules to convenience themselves: their earlier emails explicitly stated that a relocation distance of over 20 miles qualified for cancellation, but they arbitrarily changed that requirement to 25 miles just to reject our request and trap us.Despite our child not stepping foot in the facility for nearly 6 months, they relentlessly auto-deducted tuition and forced us to pay out a massive fee for the rest of the year just to be released. They show zero empathy for local families, ignore you when you stand in front of them, and constantly change their policies to force you into a financial chokehold. Do not trust their "trial" offers or their word!
