When I was a 12 years old I trained to Light Green Belt in Isshinryu Karate at Michael Storms…read moreHammondlocation, and it was a great experience and I learned so much. Four years later, I joined a dojo instructed by one of Michael storm's students, also an A.J. Advincula student, and trained there for several thousand hours. Anyway, Michael Storms and all of his associated black belts who trained under Sensie Advincula are A+ class act people. I love all of them and just want to say if you've never trained in any martial arts, or even if you think you are very good, you should join Michael Storms' dojo. He knows what he's doing, and he's a veteran of the Marine Corps too. thanks.

If you want your child to learn karate or how to defend themselves, this is absolutely NOT the…read moreplace you want to be. Mike Storms is a self-proclaimed life instructor and spends most of the hour karate class with your children preaching instead of teaching self defense. in my opinion, he's a huge waste of money because he does not come cheap. we moved our son to southern karate jujitsu and he actually got on the mat and sparred with other kids and learned what to do if he were ever put in any position where he would be in physical danger. i dont recommend Mike Storms to any one. there are lots of karate schools in the area that are much better in teaching than this school is.

He loved it and the instructor was great at taking his time and explaining everything. They don't hit you with prices as soon as you come in, they don't yell at the students and they make it fun! This is a great family martial arts studio and not a supermarket dojo. I definitely recommend this to anyone with kids and or adults who are interested in learning martial arts.

These folks really care that things are done right and they have the chops to back up the fact that they can teach. This form of martial art is respectful, an exhausting workout, and will ACTUALLY help my sons when they are met with physical adversity or challenges in real-life situations. No stand-kick-and-shout-loud-in-specific-order in this gym. This is man to man battle to subdue with respect and my 10 year old's confidence has soared.

I thought the people there cared about him. I have highly recommended this gym to countless people over the years. Unfortunately, we had to cancel his membership because the owner, Tory - a professional boxer - decided it would be ok to threaten to get in the ring with my son and "go a few rounds" with him. Not in an effort to teach or guide my son but simply because as my son was in a sparring match he didn't hear a command that Tory gave him. I am beyond disappointed.
