The classes are flexible for his age group and we can go every weekday around the same time, which is great for us and our difficult schedules. Pricing is reasonable, and Sensei GP and Sensei Shani who lead his classes are great teachers. My son is disappointed whenever I pick him up from school and we are not going to karate that day, it is almost always a highlight for him. Recently, my son was having a bad day and was upset about everything from the clothes he was wearing to the weather, and when we got to karate, he didn't want to participate (the first time this has ever happened) and all of the senseis in the dojo came up to him to check on him, and to help me try to get him to participate. Eventually, Sensei Shanny was able to get him to do a few of the drills, something I'd been trying to do since we got there. The whole team is very patient, firm, and really care about the kids.

Having an awesome instructor is key; Sensei Bruno Cabrera is a world champion athlete who has an extensive and impressive resume of achievements as a fighter. I am privileged to train with Sensei Bruno who helps us master proper kickboxing form. He is motivating throughout the entire workout until the moves are done correctly. The entire workout is fast-paced and tends to fly by because of the fun and friendly environment. You can expect a fully body, high energy workout that engages every muscle group with strong focus on your core. No martial arts or boxing experience required. In my opinion this is the best form of high intensity interval training so be ready to push yourself to your limit in the best possible way.

The Blind Eye at the Forge…read more DO NOT EAT AT THIS RESTAURANT, this was the worst restaurant we have ever ate at in 60 years. The server did as good as a job as she could, believed she was new and very nervous. She tried her best BUT she never once came back to check on us or our quality of food. This should not have been a problem since we were her only table. There was only about 10 people eating in the restaurant when we left. The food was the worst and after telling the manager the problem she only said she was going to try the items we ate and see what could be done. The manager offered NOTHING to correct the food and just acted like we were just complaining. DO NOT EAT HERE. Another problem was the parking since they only have two handicapped parking places. This place will not be in business very long and they will no one to blame but themselves.

I attended Dr. C's (Keith Carodine) circuit training class just to see what it was all about and I ended up signing up for a one month membership. There were no sales tactics, no plug, just quality training that sells itself. When you're there, you're part of a team. Unfortunately my schedule didn't allow me to continue training there but highly recommend it to anyone!
