My oldest daughter has been in the dojo since 2014 starting at the age of 8. Ever since the…read morebeginning shes had such a big love for karate. Mr. Welbon has always been such a big role model for her that she has blossomed into such and amazing young woman at the age of 20. He has helped her come out of her comfort zone and be more of an extrovert since being in karate for so long. I strongly believe karate has helped my daughter become the person she is today. Karate not only taught her self defense, but it has also taught her how to be humble, how to have mental strength, and how to build her self as a better person. I highly recommend this dojo as my daughter is an example of what good this dojo does to their students. Throughout all the years, Mr. Welbon, his instructors, his students and his staff have always been amazing and this dojo will always be home and a safe space for my daughter.

Mr. Welbon was very understanding and attentive to Justin's disability and worked in his learning language! He treated him with a high expectation and justin rose to meet it! We now attend every Wednesday night for the Adult class! My son is excited to be a part of this and looks forward to the group. The staff here all work with Justin in praising him as he learns and giving him directions to understand each move. It's been life changing for us! We appreciate the professionalism and family atmosphere

Master Myers is skillful and confident yet humble with a sense of humor. You can tell he values each student at the individual level and truly wants to help them succeed.

I never, ever felt like a stranger. Taking the classes, begining with the very first one, gave me a new sense of confidence in my ability to handle myself in a confrontation if it came to that. The facility is emaculate, and very open. If you want an hour of conditioning, and the gym bores you to tears, consider giving Muay Thai a try. The classes are very reasonable (I pay $79 for 2 hours a week) and there are a lot of classes to choose from.

Professor Jones & Shihan Jason Rock and the instructors are fully invested in every student. This isn't a "belt mill" where you're given a new stripe or belt every few months. You have to work for it, which makes earning your belt feel so much better. It's a supportive environment that really pushes you to grow. If you're in the Valrico area and want to build some real discipline and confidence, I'd highly recommend going here.

If you want to get some self-defense training for yourself or someone that you care about, then…read morestop looking any further and give Rod Scott from Intense Defense a call! We own a boutique hair salon in Downtown Danville and after getting several harassing phone calls from a weirdo, we decided to get some self-defense training for our entire staff, as we truly consider them all family. So the search began for a reputable trainer...and it went on for over a week just trying to get someone to call us back! Then I realized, why not try looking for a great instructor on Yelp? And that's where we found Rod Scott! He promptly returned our call on a Friday morning and scheduled a private session with all of our stylists for that following Monday morning! Rod was 10-minutes early and did the training at our location, so he could see what challenges our specific location posed from a security perspective. I never would have thought of this, but as Rod explained, it doesn't make much sense to hold self-defense classes in a gym or studio environment, when instead he can come to your location and see things through the eyes of an attacker and then educate you on how to defend yourself accordingly! Our 3-hour class was incredible and all of our stylists left with the same high level of confidence that they are now empowered to protect themself in any situation. I should point out that in addition to Rod teaching you all of the various physical aspects, strategic moves and pressure points that will fend off a would-be attacker, he also does 1 hour of common sense interactive lecture that really opens your eyes to how to eliminate yourself as a target in the first place and how to be MUCH more aware of your surroundings than what you are now...even if you thought you already were aware, trust me! Bottom line, if you are truly interested in the best self-defense training available for yourself or someone you care about, then give Rod Scott a call. There is no doubt that the 3-hours you spend with him could be the difference between you becoming a statistic or not! As a true testament to how great this class was, 3 of our stylists are scheduling classes for their family members to attend Rod's training! Honestly, if we could have given Rod Scott 10-Stars we would have!
