The atmosphere is great, full of positive people and supportive, friendly parents. Even though karate is a personal practice (everyone is on their own journey!) Bryce has done an awesome job of creating a team among the kids. He's a wonderful instructor and the kids obviously love and respect him for it, making it easy to feel part of the Moore's family. My son looks forward to class and loves practicing at home. We appreciate that they work in integrity lessons and encourage the kids to be kind but firm with their bodies and words. We will be here for years to come and will sign up our younger child when she is ready!

My son has been attending Vanbelle's academy for over 2 months. We signed him up for the year…read morebecause he enjoys it so much! You can choose to come twice a week or 3 times a week (there is also a variety of plans for more classes). They have classes Monday through Friday at this location. For the little guys classes start around 400pm and for kids 5 and up, (also depending on their belt) starts at 5 and other classes start after that. My son learns so much each time he goes. He learns to work with others, take ownership of his learning not just in karate class but at school and home. The instructors are very friendly and knowledgeable. There are several students in the class and the instructors take their time to work with each one of them when they're struggling or learning a new move/ strategy. Students also get awarded for their behavior at school and at tasks/ behavior at home. Soon my son will test for a belt and he's so excited! I look forward to seeing my sons continued growth and dedication in this class. I am so glad I signed him up. (:

My kids have developed a self confidence and awareness that I don't think you could get anywhere else. I disagree with the negative reviews on here, as it seems both one star reviews are from people who gave up too quickly. Bloody noses happen. It's a contact sport for godsake. And kids can be bad, don't blame the coaches for that. I would highly recommend the gym to anyone interested in jiu-jitsu or just wanting to develop some self defense skills. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Karl for doing such a great job teaching and coaching my kids! M
