It's been two years since I stopped doing judo back when I lived in Idaho. When I got back on days…read moreI started looking for a place to train. I ended up finding a site called dojo fonder and the only place close to Baton Rouge that did judo was wall to wall martial arts. The teaching is in depth and the atmosphere is always positive. Between the judo and bjj I'm able to fill up most of my week with something to do. The first two classes are free, definitely check them out and see what they're about!

My son attended Wall to Wall for almost 2 years. He really enjoyed it until the beginning of this…read moreyear. Recently we decided to stop attending. I paid for 6 months at a time since he started. I had 3 months left when we decided to stop. I emailed the owners wife, who runs the payment accounts, about getting my remaining balance back (approx. $400). She emailed me stating it is their policy to not refund, but they would hold a credit if he decides to return. I went to the dojo after I received this email about this "policy". The staff there could not produce this policy. (Had I been told, read, or given this "policy" I would have never paid 6 months at a time). I then emailed back asking if I could at the very least transfer the credit to another student. (Not ideal, but at least my money would go towards a kids classes). They emailed back that they do not transfer credits. So essentially I am being super messed over because I paid 6 months at a time. Had I only paid month to month I would only be out, at most, $135. Because of this interaction, we will definitely never return to Wall to Wall.

Mancuso needs to chill out. This past weekend at a multiple gym community gathering Mancuso (the…read morehead coach) entered the gym instantly pointing at a person and saying "I'm gonna fight you motherfucker" instantly shocking everyone. He then continues to manically berate this person for no reason with multiple people needing to intervene. Thankfully the guy being accused by Mancuso was able to deescalate it before it got any worse. Why you may ask? A bad review... Apparently this person left a bad review and Mancuso decided to try and fight and harass him. Makes you wonder how many people haven't left a bad review in fears of being attacked. While his gym may be cool and his students alright. Mancuso has an ego problem that is corroborated by multiple people. Sincerely, someone else who was there that day.
