I had checked out Robinsons in Lodi before, but I wasn't a huge fan. However, Cutting Edge has been something totally different. I really see the passion these instructors have for what they teach. I like that they're attentive to the kids, teach them to be disciplined, and teach them other important values. They don't play with nonsense, but will be patient with kids that aren't listening and talk to them in a caring but firm manner. I love the way they put on belt testing for the kids.

It's really very cool to see how quickly your child will transform in this program. My son started…read morein the Little Dragon's program a few months ago and while we knew he was going to be interested in taekwondo, we had no idea how obsessed he'd become instantly! As a child on the spectrum, we have seen huge improvements in his joint attention, discipline, turn taking, and learning routines. There are kids in his class who have been attending longer and are great role models during class. I love that Master Garmany sets clear rules for how to behave in class. He has had my son sit out when he's misbehaving and it's been really good for him to have a direct consequence. He really doesn't want to have to sit out and understands that there is a certain way he needs to behave to participate. Stamps during class for good behavior and stickers at the end are the biggest deal to my son, it's really adorable. Master Garmany really has thought about everything when putting this business together. I love that the Little Dragon's class is so child friendly. Watching little films before class starts, listening to CoComelon during musical chairs, imaginative play during warm up and stretch time. It's really sweet. Now, here's where it gets even more exciting. There is a room full of toys and imaginative play that the little ones can go in, or their siblings. Great amount of seating area to watch your kids. There's an epic arcade for kids and parents to come nerd out in. And there is an awesome workout area for parents to use anytime. All of this is included in your child's membership! I also love that Master Garmany coordinates lots of events that the kids can attend, participate, or help out in. Star Wars movie nights, rock concerts, taco trucks, um yes please! Thank you Master Garmany for how much thought you've put into creating such a welcoming beautiful place.

I wasn't sure what to expect since I've never been exposed to martial arts. I purchased a Groupon…read morefrom this business to give it a shot and see if it was something my son would be into. My first impression with this place wasn't the greatest. The first time I took my 4 year old son the instructor was late and didn't check us in or explain much or how their program worked. However, the instructor was great with the class. He was fun as engaging and really got the kids going. At the end of the class one of the younger instructors was there and I mentioned it was my first sons first time. He helped get us registered and went over the check in process. At the end a lady finished getting us setup and gave us the T-shirt that came with the Groupon. This put some ease into my first impression. Throughout the next few weeks my son went 2x a week and a few of those times the instructor was late and one time there was no class because the instructor was sick but we weren't even informed. No email or anything. With that said I will say my son enjoyed it and it appeared all of the kids enjoyed it as well. I will say that I am disappointed that I wasn't able to use the last few classes that came with the Groupon. I was told it expired and that I would need to register for their regular fees. No where on the Groupon website or fine print does it say there is a time frame in which the classes had to be done it just said 16 and that you couldn't have us a Groupon in the last 12 months. There was a push even at the beginning to go with their promo as opposed to the Groupon but I wasn't in a rush since I wanted to check it out first. This experience had some bumps. If you buy a Groupon get clarification because there is no indication of a timeframe. Although we've had some up and down experiences I can see where this would be great for kids. Also looks like they'll be moving to a bigger location which should be good since they have quite a bit of students.

Before Pinnacle, he tried Jui Jitsu, and unfortunately, it was a very difficult experience for him. Since joining Pinnacle Taekwondo, the experience has been completely different and truly amazing.

They genuinely teach, while always showing respect and adapting their approach to each student's age and skill level. I would especially like to thank Master Park for his professionalism and dedication, Mr. Vicente for his positive energy and professionalism, and the front desk team, especially Mr. Jorge, who is always keeping me updated about events, schedules, and important commitments.
