We were visiting from out of town and wanted to get a training session in. I reached out and we could get into a class for a roll. I offered to pay whatever, and they were pumped that we reached out and wanted to roll on vacation, so they let us train for free for a class. They were all very friendly and the instructor was fantastic - encouraging and very detailed in the instructions. We felt very welcome here. They have great kid's instruction programs, so I definitely recommend this place if you are considering BJJ for your kid, regardless of age. read more

The coaches are all amazing here. They are all so great with the kids. It's has been so great to watch my kids grow and have fun here. read more

Carlson Gracie Miami "Ghost Squad" My thoughts on Carlson Gracie Miami. I find the training at Carlson Gracie Miami (CGM) to be excellent, if not exceptional. Several present and former students at the gym have earned gold medals in national and international competitions, including the renowned International Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (IBJJF) Worlds. In this regard alone, the training at CGM is world-class. There are seasoned competitors, students who have been training in several different martial arts for years (yours truly), and fresh, new students and children with entirely new perspectives. The classes are well structured, progressive, and reviewed weekly. I have known Michelle Porfirio, affectionately known as Buiu since 2013. I have been more than impressed with his knowledge base, his ability to relay his knowledge, and his ability to connect with people. Over the last 30 years, he has garnered accolades that demonstrate his skill and attest to his dedication to the practice and teaching of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ). I also offer that he is a compassionate and effective communicator in his teaching style with an attention to detail that I highly value. Head instructor, Jose Pita is a superb instructor of adults and children alike. His calm, welcoming energy and vast fund of knowledge are an asset to all the students. Still active in competition, he has much to offer both cautious beginners and seasoned competitors alike. It is a pleasure to train and learn from him. Likewise, Professor Jacob is a thorough, patient, instructor with experience in competitive BJJ and MMA. All the instructors have varying perspectives that help one create his or her own style and expand on their set of skills. The feeling I get at CGM is one of family, home, and camaraderie. I have studied and practiced martial arts for over 30 years, ten years in BJJ alone. It is very welcoming to step into a dojo (gym) with a group of students who spread a good combination of competitive spirit and readiness to share knowledge. It is a joy to watch the natural evolution of students from eager, sometimes frenzied beginners, to patient, well-practiced veterans receiving their advancing belts. Likewise, parents watch their children grow from ebullient tornados to skilled, confident, seasoned competitors. I would offer BJJ highly for parents who feel their children need a healthy release of energy. There is no attention deficit, nor hyperactivity at the end of a hard training session. Whether you are a beginner wanting to learn self-defense through martial arts, in need of exercise for health improvement, confidence, and stress management, an experienced martial artist, or a parent, I highly recommend BJJ Carlson Gracie Miami. read more

What a very welcoming and supportive atmosphere with very good teaching and training of effective techniques! Whenever I am in town, I roll with the Ghost Squad. It is my BJJ home away from home and I always feel like family. You could not ask for a more friendly and effective place to train and improve your BJJ skills Everyone provides positive feedback and encouragement. I would recommend to anyone who considers BJJ to stop by at this exceptional and amazing studio! read more

Carlson Gracie Miami - Picture with fourth degree black belt Professor Master Michel "Buiu" Porfirio Pereira, the founder of Carlson Gracie Miami. - Kickboxing Near Me - Miami, Florida

As a former athlete, I can appreciate the cleanliness that Daddis maintains. ALL the staff members are friendly and professional. As a parent, I truly appreciate the level of instruction that they give, including proper discipline when necessary. And, they make sure that everyone has fun. They are very patient coaches and I can tell that ALL of them really enjoy what they do. I have no doubt that they are instilling a good foundation for both of my boys. I would highly recommend Daddis to anyone for their kids. read more

Phenomenal workout, great instructors and a good bunch of people that attend. Brad Daddis, the owner, teaches Monday nights at the Philadelphia location and it's the most grueling but rewarding workout of the week. Brad is certified in Muay Thai, BJJ, Krav Maga, kettlebell training and yoga and instructs local law enforcement as well as teaching at the fight camps. He's also a hell of a nice guy - which is probably a good thing, given his repertoire. The senior students are also good; as a beginner, they've been good about helping with my pitiful technical skills and woeful conditioning - but hopefully things are getting better from that end! Some of the classes during the week can get a bit crowded - always try and make the earlier 5 or 5.30pm classes if you can; they tend to be a little less busy. read more

Carlson Gracie Miami - Kickboxing Near Me - Miami, Florida

Great place. The instructors are extremely skilled yet down-to-earth. Everyone is friendly and makes a new person feel welcome!..

Can't be more please with the quality of the training and teaching, coming from Basico BJJ in DR (great BJJ) and later from the UFC Gym BJJ, I feel that my game, is so much improved, even that I'm so much older now. Awesome couching and training partners in a familiar ambient or a very competitive one, you decide how you want to practice, as they have a competition team, for those who likes the challenges, and a normal fraternity practice for those who looks for self defense or health. I highly recommend this Dojo/Gym. read more

Carlson Gracie Miami is by far the best BJJ dojo in not only all of South Florida, but one of the best in the country! Professor "Buiu" and the phenomenal instructors they have teach more than just great technique, but also ensuring the Bushido code is instilled in literally every teammate which is very rare to find. Ego's are left at the door, everyone treats each other like family, and there are multiple world class champions training here everyday. It's the top dojo dominating the South Florida BJJ community. The teens and kids programs are unparalleled and safety and discipline are of prime focus. It's like night and day seeing your game improve day by day. I've been training at CG miami for only a year and a half, and I can easily say this is the best investment I've ever made in my life. This gym, our professor "Buiu", teammates, and instructors, have helped create so much of my own personal growth and Jiu Jitsu has transcended my life in ways words cannot express. I'm eternally grateful to everyone at this gym, it's more than just a dojo--it's family. read more

And now, the review I was looking for before I signed up : First, the back story : I'm 29 years old, 155lbs, 5'11 with zero fighting experience. Absolutely zero. I'm talking "I can't remember the time I threw a punch" type experience." "Take a punch to the chest and give up on life" type of experience. Yeah, that bad. I live in Center City now, but I was raised in the depths of North Philadelphia, where everyone wanted to knuckle up every 15 minutes -- It's amazing that I'm still alive and breathing. Someone out there loves me. Divine Intervention. Fortunately though, I've always had a crisp mouthpiece, so I've always had the ability to deescalate anger in others. I've creatively avoided heading into Bloodsport esque situations with the underbelly of society for almost 30 years, but I knew deep down that I didn't like having that glaring weakness. Especially as soon to be 30 year old man. Having the same fighting experience that I had when I started high school in 1999 was unacceptable to me. I didn't like the fact that I couldn't defend myself, especially hanging around dimes. Average men who drink excessively in tapout shirts get jealous, you see. Furthermore, As a man, not being fit and not being able to defend oneself causes in-congruence. It's a huge void in your life. You may feel confident because of other factors, but the most primal of all, the ability to protect oneself and others needs to be handled. Enter Muay Thai. Now, to make everything clear, I'm not taking this class to become some sort of night vigilante or to finally have the ability to tango with some burly dude in a dive bar on the weekend. Nah. That's stupidity. If it was up to me, I'd go another 30 years without a serious fight. So before you start, drop the ego, if you have it. It's imperative to approach this academy and the various arts with respect and understanding. There are things to learn here that are easily more important than the ability to fight. Arrival/Intro Lesson : When I arrived, I had trouble parking, so you might want to consider public transportation. I ended up finding a spot on Washington ave, so I didn't pay anything. You might not be so lucky, friend. They will tow and ticket you like crazy on the side streets around Washington Ave. It's very congested, but that's South Philly for you. It's easy to miss the entrance of Daddis. I saw the signs everywhere, but I tried opening like three locked doors before I found the correct entrance on one of the side streets. It's directly across from the Autozone on 17th and Washington, but a more accurate address would be something like 1041 S Bouvier St. It's a narrow street -- Look for the black awning. When you go in, POW! That sock smell is a beast. You're in a building full of fighters though, so it's understandable. You'll get used to and eventually stop thinking of that smell pretty quickly. It'll fade into the background. Don't worry. Once in, you'll get a glimpse of the 3D Logo, which is pretty sweet. Props to the guy/gal who created it. "I'm sure that has been instagrammed a billion times." I thought. So... my phone went back into my pocket. As you ascend the stairs, you'll see pictures of various people fighting, which it'll probably get you pumped. The nervousness I've initially had about the place started to decrease at this point. When I arrived to the top floor, I immediately felt that the place looked bigger online. It's spacious, don't get me wrong, but I expected more. The receptionist was pretty nice. Filled out paperwork, changed and met with the trainer. The trainer I had was pretty much a " no-excuses" type of guy (which is good) and he was stern with his orders, but overall was a cool dude. We immediately put on the gloves, and got into the ring. He had me learn combos, knee attacks, elbow strikes, and stances -- all completely new to me. Then, I've done a bunch of crunches, situps and burpees. Then he had me mix it all together for about an hour. And that was the intro lesson. As I felt the strength and energy drain from my body from exhaustion, I stumbled over to the desk area to discuss payment. Let's get it out the way -- Daddis is not cheap. I wont post exact numbers (GO IN!!!) but I will say this : you might have to cancel cable with the billion channels you don't watch if you're making an average salary. I'm ballin out of control with my finances and even I paused for a moment and was like "damn." But.... it's worth it though. You get an immaculate place to train in, friendly coaches, an academy that's critically acclaimed and most importantly, you're getting your body on point while learning some sick moves, bro. I'm aiming to be in Fast And Furious 8, myself. Ive had fears about doing this, I've had self doubt (and it showed in my training) but I forced myself to take action. I hope you'll do the same. Now I have discipline in my life.. which is more than most people in our lives can say. read more

I just moved down here from NYC about 4 months ago. I used to train at a lot of gyms in NJ and NYC but was out of the game for like 3 years. I tried getting back into it while I lived in NYC but the MMA gyms there were full of how u say? pansies and posers? I tried one class at Daddis and let me tell u they run a tight ship with a good bunch of instructors and the guys that join are great. We joined as a group and they gave us a family discount. So all in all we pay about 129 a month which is pretty damn cheap. ( unlimited classes: BJJ, NO GI BJJ, Muay thai, MMA classes, and now they have kettleball classes 1) Great for beginners: they go everything slowly and other students are willing to work with u. 2) Intermediate guys like myself have a great bunch of guys to improve your skills. 3) 3 weeks into it and I have already lost about 8-10 pds... 4) My friend wife joined and she has a great time at the muy thai calsses... so its great for women and men. Give them a chance. read more

This review is regarding Daddis' Womens Fitness Bootcamp! Talk about a workout! You meet four times a week for this bootcamp and are guaranteed only two things: 1.) A full gallon of sweat will ooze out of your body. 2.) Monday nights, bet on some kickboxing. Otherwise, prepare for a killer program focusing on muscle confusion and a group mentality of BRING IT! The ladies in the group are really nice, and there to just kick ass and take names, so there's definitely no judgement here. Just come in and WORK! And if there's something you can't do because of an injury, etc. - you tell the instructor and they've instantly got an alternative for you, no questions asked. They're definitely there to help you get the best workout you can at your own level. It's not cheap, but it's a *reat option of you're looking for a sense of accountability (they notice if you're not coming in!) and comradery that'll keep you pushing yourself when you'd give up otherwise. (Especially if you've been hunting for a gym buddy... you don't really need one here!) So check out their free week trial to see if it's for you! Important notes: Camp's done on the mats in either bare feet or socks. (This flat-foot needs to invest in some tape to wrap the feet to fake some arches!) And if you're sensitive to smell -- just imagine what an MMA gym that constantly inspires large groups of people to ooze full gallons of sweat every day of the week would smell like... and know that's what you're in for! If you just threw up a little bit in the back of your mouth - you might want to go check out palates or something... read more

I have a sensitive nose so the first thing I noticed while walking up the steps was the smell of rubber and sweat. When I got to the second landing and into the entrance, I realized immediately why. I had walked into a roomful of mostly men and some women who were training, and training hard. It was slightly intimidating especially since I felt like any person in the room could easily pinch my arm and break it since they all looked so fierce. Meanwhile, I'm in the corner with almost zero experience in doing anything bad ass like Muay Thai or Jiu Jitsu. Despite my initial fears, I still went in and completed my intro. After talking to the instructor, I signed up for Muay Thai classes and I loved it! The instructors and students may look intimidating, but they're actually really patient and nice. I liked that they really took their time to correct my form if I was doing something wrong and they never told me that I sucked even though I knew deep down inside that I really did. Instead, they were always positive and encouraged me to try harder. I only wish they had more locations like one in NYC. Since I've moved here, I haven't been able to find a place that is as good as Daddis. Hopefully one day they will expand, but in the meantime, I guess I'll still be coming by for Muay Thai lessons every time I visit Philly! read more

What an awesome gym. Absolutely love the place. Its spacious, has great equipment, is clean and the instructors are top notch and friendly. Fellow students are all good people and this place had me feeling at home very quickly. Being new to Philly and still a Muay Thai novice, I've tried most Muay Thai gyms in Philly and this is by far my favourite. I've trained here for about 3 weeks and wish I could continue. Now to the bad part. The pricing structure. I wont mention prices because I'm not sure they want it advertised...but it is definitely expensive, unless you pay upfront or sign a 12 month contract (in which case it still is expensive). I guess this has its positives. It maintains a certain type of dedicated clientele and it goes to keeping a really well managed gym in order...problem is, I really don't want to be tied into a contract. I also just don't have huge lump sum closer to the $1k mark lying around to pay upfront for gym. I would love to be a member of this gym but I cant sign contracts. I don't have any contracts except for my lease so I don't see why my gym needs to tie me down. I'll look around and try Body Arts Gym, maybe go back to Stay Fly Muay Thai too *Note (Stay Fly is awesome but it feels like most people there are pro fighters so a little intimidating to newer fighters) Overall, Daddis is really good read more

I love this place! If you are interested in learning bjj, this is one of the best places to sign up in Miami. Very fair price, and tons of classes to fit every schedule. I have been going steady for fourth months and plan to stay as long as I can. The atmosphere is amazing, everyone is friendly and you get treated like part of the family, however the adult program emphasizes competing so practices can get intense. Exactly what I was looking for! All of the instructors are very knowledgeable, professional and LEGIT high level grapplers from one of the most successful Gracie lineages, that of Carlson Gracie. Every class has a huge variety of people from college kids, young professionals, and parents of varying skill level, but everyone is treated with the same respect and importance. Belts and stripes are earned on the mat, not handed out. I practice with white belts here that are superior to blue belts i have worked with at other schools. read more

My wife and I joined about a month and a half ago and we both love it. The instructors are very knowledgeable and spend equal time with beginners and more experienced students. The facility is top notch, very clean with plenty of Fighting equipment for the classes. There is also access to fitness equipment as it shares a space with crossfit. You can't attend CF classes unless you have the membership, but you are welcome use the equipment. That being said.... You won't have the energy to after a Muay Thai/boxing class. I am in reasonable shape, and having done Insanity DVDs I can tell you these classes are every bit the workout of those. I leave class dripping with sweat and exhausted. Yes, it is difficult at first, but it is a great feeling driving home knowing you not only pushed yourself but learned something as well. You will find yourself throwing mock punch combinations in your kitchen, bathroom in the elevator at the office, pretty much anywhere. It is addicting and a ton of fun. I was paired with a couple different more advanced students who were never impatient with me. They are very helpful and there are no bro-y meatheads that are trying to show off. I can't recommend this place enough. It's not just for people who want to get into mma professionally. All ages, sizes, fitness levels Everyone works and learns. read more

I finally know the meaning of the words "No pain, no gain" after training at Daddis since September 2013. And I enjoy every moment of it!!! I signed on for the Muay Thai classes because I always wanted to the learn art but never had the guts to. Blows of the elbows & knees, oh heck no!!! But like everything else in life, I got over it, took myself down there & saw for myself. And found out I'm pretty good too. The 1st week was grueling & I mean sit in a hot bath full of epsom salt & cry till your muscles relax type of grueling. Burpees, yoga, pilates, cardio & stretching to start. If you're not covered in sweat the first 15 minutes, you're doing it wrong. Then the actually class. The trainers, each is a fighter of some style, are detailed, repeative, very helpful & encouraging. They make you do it over & over & over again til you get a feel for it. Plus they're awesome motivaters. Everytime I think I can't last 5 more minutes, someone's there to make you push just a little harder. By the time trainer starts the cool down start part of class, you're more surprised that the class is over..but thankful for it. I've learned a lot Daddis & hope to learn some more as time goes one. They are a great group of people that work & train there & would recommend Daddis for anyone interested in a fight training program or bootcamp program. read more

I recently went here for the first time and loved it! I have been to many martial arts schools over the years and let me just say they are just so nice here and so professional. The instructors I have met so far all seem very patient and very well trained. The training floor is huge, plenty of room so you won't get jammed up. The equipment is all in great shape. This may have also been the cleanest martial arts school I have ever been too. These guys are absolute clean freaks which to me, is extremely important for any training center. My only advice... just don't dog it, otherwise kick some butt and have fun! read more

I have been training at daddis fight camps for about a year now after starting as a true beginner. I've thoroughly enjoyed my experience and really can't say anything negative about the gym, staff, or fellow students. The gym itself is well run and clean. ALL of the instructors are extremely accommodating to beginners while tailoring the class to all skill levels. They are very approachable before, during, or after class with questions (or anything for that matter). Most importantly, they provide truly top notch instruction in terms of technique and push you to go way beyond what you think you are capable of. I'm certainly in the best shape of my life now. As the other reviewers mentioned, there aren't any egos at the gym and the more experienced students don't hesitate to help. Without a doubt it's worth every penny and I wish I had discovered it sooner! read more

Thxs professor Buiu and everybody in there for help and teach our children about respect , valors, humbleness and the importance of Helping others through martial arts . Beautiful job . read more

Professor Buiu was extremely kind and welcoming when I was visiting Miami. I was able to train at the early morning class and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of students that were there. Everyone treated me like part of the team and I was welcome back with open arms... I look forward to visiting the next time I'm in Miami! read more

It's a miracle to me that I have been at this gym 4 days a week, 2 hours a day for 5 months. I never liked working out until I joined Daddis. Everything about this place is genuine. The coaches are AMAZING and actually care about what you learn, want to learn and encourage you to do more and be better. The people that are members of this gym are just as encouraging and will correct you when you're wrong and motivate you to fight better. It smells like sweat, hard work, and honest lessons which is what makes it the best gym I've ever joined. Aside from the amazing vibes this gym gives, the equipment is great and helps you train to be the best fighter you can be. I love being apart of Daddis MMA and would never consider another gym ever again. I began as someone who couldn't ever think of learning Muay Thai and I was just doing this to see if I could actually do it. I'm now 5 months in and obsessed. My first 20 lessons were a mess. I couldn't punch properly let alone having a proper form. As I attended more classes I ended up training with the advance guys, sparring with men who are twice my size and being confident in how to fight. There's always more to learn and always room for improvement. So far, I think Daddis has trained me to be pretty bad ass and even more interested in not only Muay Thai but also Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I love and adore this place and it has become apart of my daily routine. read more

Really enjoyed the beginner classes for muay Thai and boxing, the beginner classes for jui jitsu we're harder for me. It was easy getting beginner pointers in the first two, but I felt like I didn't get a lot of attention in the larger classes. Would definitely recommend tho, I don't think I was able to dedicate enough time to this, so it's definitely my fault that I didn't advance very far. read more

I LOVE this place. The instructors and coaches bring the best out of each and every student every time, regardless of skill level or experience. If you want to push your training further than you ever imagined you could go, this is the place to do it. read more

Moved to the city earlier this year and was looking for a regular gym to join when I stumbled upon this place online. Have now been a member for ~4 months and can't say enough good things about it. First of all - there is a ton of diversity in ability level, age, gender, race, and the extent to which everyone is into the fight culture. The classes are primarily offered in the evenings (with a couple of early classes a couple of times a week) and are split into three different packages that you can purchase: Striking, Grappling, or Combined. Your membership entitles you to all the classes in each category (or all the classes if you buy a combined package). Word of warning - you are going to need to buy boxing gloves (~$50) and hand wraps (~$8) at the bare minimum for even the beginners classes. If you stay in it for more than a month and move up to the regular classes you'll need a mouthguard (~$15) and shin guards (~$50). Not a cheap proposition when combined with the membership itself. That being said, the enjoyment you get from excellent instructors that truly work to help you learn and improve and a competitive, difficult workout that you actually might look forward to - it's a worthwhile investment and I sincerely doubt you can find a better place to train, regardless of your goals. They also offer kids classes and straight ahead workout programs, though I am not sure about the details or costs involved. read more

You kinda have to get used to the smell of socks, once you take that out of the equations you can get a good workout here. I joined the dojo to try something different and started jiu-jitsu class. My intro meeting was great, they gave me a tour and explained everything, which was especially cool because I've never had any martial arts experience. They have evening classes, which are proper evening like 7p or 7:30p, which gives you some time between work, some food and getting in a good workout. I find training in a group environment pretty motivational, and a welcome change from solo training. They do have a variety of different programs depending on your interest and I would recommend everyone to at least setup an appointment and do a free training session. read more

Fantastic gym! I've been going there for BJJ for three months and the staff had been so welcoming that I felt motivated even though my first month training was tough. The coaches are inspirational and create a team culture there. I almost never write reviews but when a business is this good, I feel inspired to do so! read more

I had a great Living Social experience at Daddis. Jackson, Ben, and Al gave a great intro to boxing in about 2.5 hours and wow was I sore the next few days! I'm definitely going to look in to training costs here, if not for me, for my hubby. The space is great- a boxing ring, a cage, plenty of mat space, a lengthy wall of mirrors for shadow boxing, weights, jump ropes, and of course, bags to hit on. Boxing is definitely a great way to blow of steam and requires more concentration than one would think. read more

My son loves going to class here! Great environment and very friendly staff! I definitely would recommend this school to anyone.

Awesome workouts and great instructors. Would definitely recommend the Womens Boot Camp!

This is a wonderful Jiu Jitsu school! Top choice in Miami! We always stop in to train here when we travel to Miami, family friendly Jiu Jitsu under excellent professor Buiu! read more

The training in this school is average, no advanced technique at all. The professor always teaches the same things. There are few advanced students there, but the majority are students who lack technique and use "dirty" jiujitsu. No longer the gentle art. School isn't what it used to be. Owners only care about your money, no personal relationship at all. Not to mention they're extremely unprofessional. They have THEIR best interest at heart. Definitely recommend training elsewhere, a professional, friendly, and advanced training environment. read more

Daddis has the worst customer service ever!!! Do NOT join this gym. I had the worst experience with customer service. In november I broke me leg in three places playing with my daughter. I have had two surgeries and may need one more. I contacted Daddis right away to let them know what happened. Much to my dismay the customer service rep has been jerking me around. I have asked him to cancel my membership and he has lied about receiving my emails. I have asked to be connected to a supervisor and never received a response. All along I have been charged for something I am not able to use. Look I realize they are in the business of making money but there are better ways to go about it. I will tell my story to everyone who will listen until I have my membership canceled and my money refunded. read more

I have been to 4-5 gyms and this gym is the best I have been to. You truly get a sense of family and brotherhood from your training mates; Everyone is so friendly!There are a good range of high level belts and everyone is willing to help and push you to do better. read more

My 6 year old son has been going here for 6 months now and he still loves it! Its a great deal too for their packages.

I had such a great time training at Carlson Gracie Miami. I was visiting from California. Professor Buiu treated me like family, and everyone welcomed me with open arms and open mats. The facility is nice, and the bathroom and mats were clean. There was good air ventilation during training. The training was really fun too. I got such a great workout. Overall an excellent experience. Five Stars. Thank you. read more

I was only visiting Miami for a short while and only had a chance to stop by once for class, but it was a phenomenal experience. The instructors, along with all of the students, were unbelievably friendly and welcoming. If you're on the fence, don't hesitate. It doesn't matter your skill level.... They will welcome you with open arms and teach you some high level stuff. read more

I joined Daddis in early February of 2012 and could not be happier I did. I found out about it through a groupon I bought, and when I went for my initial consultation I was sold. The staff was extremely professional, friendly and helpful and my first workout was very unique. Once I started my training I was hooked. Not only is it a great physical workout but it tests your mental limits. I have done various levels of training before(p90x, insanity, yoga) and this is as challenging and rewarding as anything I have done. Regardless if you are looking to train for potential competitions or just general fitness the trainers treat you the same and work closely with you to Help you develop and learn. I want to end with the coaches. The best aspect of Daddis is having access to all of the coaches you do and being able to learn from their various styles and teaching methods. Everyone of them does it different which keeps it fresh and fun, and for fitness the muscle confusion is critical. They are each masters of their craft and take pride in the job and your growth. They help foster a team environment and you enjoy watching them and your classmates compete. It is definetly worth the money so if you are interested in martial arts or just looking for something different I recommend you do it. Oh, and if you have kids get them in there immediately. They will thank you later on and you will love the discipline it teaches them. read more
