I feel supported and encourage for my walk without any dismissal of what I have previously learned. This gym I have learned produces champions but never is there macho bs that sometimes crops up in competition circles.

Highly recommend this place for any age, now to enroll the daughter and wife!

My daughter got into Azads Martial Arts and has truly fallen in love with this journey ! She has…read morebuilt so much courage and confidence in just a short period ! LeeAndra has changed in many ways at home practicing her skills and even lifting weights to strengthen her body . This new life skill has given her something to look forward to and focus on , has self motivated her to succeed in something other than video games and the time she spends behind her tablet . She loves to show her skills to family and friends . She has even made some new friends at school by having this skill to talk about with other martial artists . She has had the honor of working with Mrs. Miranda and Mr. Gant in practicing the skills of the white belt rank . Both Miranda and Gant are amazing instructors and LeeAndra really looks forward to every class at Azads Martial Arts ! Anyone looking for Martial Arts for themselves or their child . I would highly recommend the family and child friendly classes and instructors at Azads ! See you at the Dojo !

Second, I learned things on the FIRST day that I could use in a self defense situation. The instructor is fun, knowledgeable and professional. He is someone I look forward to learning from. I'm definitely hooked! As a woman, you can never be too prepared or empowered. These classes give you both! I had such a great endorphin high afterward. Ill be a regular from here on out for SURE! The prices are beyond reasonable and you don't need to buy a bunch of stuff to get going. Bottom line: fitness, fun, self defense and something totally different from what you have been doing thus far. I can't recommend it highly enough!

My son has been training on and off under Ahjan Josh since he was four. He's been here more…read moreconsistently now (at age ten) and has grown in his skills since - not just fighting skills, but those of self-discipline, respect, and care for others. He's been allowed to help the younger children and been given responsibility as seen fit. He enjoys coming to class very much. Coach is the kind to push someone past their ability because he sees potential, but not past the point where kids would lose confidence in themselves. It's a fine balance and I appreciate having someone coaching my son who understands and acknowledges this. Also, it's funny because a lot of parents fear that putting their kids in to a fighting class will promote violence but it has done the opposite. My son hasn't gotten in trouble for fighting or any other physical altercations in the past six years. We'll continue coming here!

White Tiger Studios is a great place for both kids and adults to learn Kenpo Karate…read more My son has been going to White Tiger Studios for about 3 years now and loves going. He has learned so much and the whole experience has been great for him. Jesse (the owner) works very well with my son and the other kids in the class. He makes learning Karate fun, but still keeps the kids inline so they keep focused and learn what they are supposed to learn. The cost of the lessons is very reasonable and the classes are twice a week. Jesse also does private lessons and for $20.00 for an hour it is a great deal. White Tiger Studios is great for almost any age of student, from 4-5 years old to adult. I look forward to hopefully many more years of taking my son to White Tiger Studios and Jesse to continue learning Karate.

In response to the negative review, that decision was made because on multiple occasions many of the parents in the waiting area smelled so strongly of marijuana.

I appreciate that there is someone available to answer questions about new memberships/billing. Very professional. The kids class is massive and they have plenty of instructors on the mat to help. Instruction here is top notch. It's kind of expected that you'll get "thrown to the wolves" when you start jiu jitsu as there are really no "basics/beginner course"; you just immerse and catch up eventually (unless you pay extra for personals). I appreciate that they see when someone needs help and they provide it, instead of leaving you lost and floundering. As for adults class, everyone is friendly and respectful. There are no women's classes (that's fine) and males and females are mixed in class but they do a great job with the culture to ensure the women don't feel intimidated. The female black belt instructors do an amazing job at putting new female students at ease. Everyone is so nice and respectful and I have not had any negative experiences. More emphasis on self-defense aspect here, which I appreciate. Very realistic. But they'll also get you competition-ready if that's your goal too. I appreciate the structure, discipline, and higher expectation here. Quality team and families. Highly recommend!

The staff is super friendly, and the trainers are excellent. I know for me that the hardest part of my workout is actually getting to the gym. Once there, you get into a grove and the time goes by quickly. The facility is a two-story building with several indoor racketball courts, multiple weight rooms with both free weights and machines. Upstairs, there is Cardio Galore with: Multiple Bikes including the ass-kicking Assault Bike, Spin Bikes, Recumbent Bikes. A wide choice of Treadmills, Ellipticals, Stair Steppers, and more nautilus type machines on the periphery. There are also studios where they have spin classes, group classes like yoga and Zumba. There is a multitude of Cross-Fit Equipment both inside and outside of the facility including large truck tires in the back that you can move across the yard if that's your thing. The trainers are top-notch, specifically Amber has a passion for helping her clients get into great shape with a positive encouraging attitude. It is exceedingly rare to find people that love what they do and share the passion for a healthier you. There are separate men and women's locker rooms that include: Indoor Spa, Sauna, Showers and Locker room. The Sauna is great, and the Locker room has plenty of space to change after your workout. Overall, a nice facility to work out, very close to I-5 in Anderson, with plenty of parking in their lot or on the street.
