Let me start out by saying this place is a true blessing. My boys started here 17 months ago, and it has changed all of our lives. We debated putting them in karate for a while and when we finally decided to, we did our research on some of the local places. Well we walked in and out of a few places within ten minutes. It was horrible how they were. But that led us to trying another place we had past on the way. And I told my boys, if this place is like the other ones, then karate is not for us. We'll my boys prays were answered. We walked in to John prevatt karate to a huge smile, bright blue eyes and "welcome, come on in" that made us all feel relieved and hopefull. Master zico and Grand master prevatt were so helpfull and took to my boys in a second. At that time my boys were struggling with school, not keeping their grades up and even though they didn't have behavioral issues, they really had attention troubles, laziness, and a lot of back talking at home. Well within a few weeks at prevatt karate it all started to change. And trying not to go on, but now a year later i have two of the sweetest and most respectful boys. Their rooms are clean, they have good grades, they dont back talk anyone, and are trying daily to do the right things. This place is amazing. The program here is great and the after school transportation is a huge help. Plus they are open during the week when school is closed.. all pluses.. if your thinking about stating your kids in karate, I highly recommend John prevatt karate. read more
