Super fun! Instructors were patient and super helpful. You get to choose your material and shape your own knife. The process was super easy and so much fun. Can't wait to come back.

These are the two knives we made, my boyfriend also got to make a free mini knife from a nail since it was his birthday!

Me and my boyfriend did a knife making class at Caylor Forge, the instructor was very informative, gave great instruction and was overall very friendly! Reasonable pricing, amazing value, overall excellent experience! Also great selection of products to buy if you are not interested in taking a class!

Husband and I stumbled upon Caylor Forge while having lunch near by. We saw the building sign and decided to stop by and sooo glad we did!!!! It was such a fun experience! Victor was a great instructor. Considering I do not mess with fire at all ( not even grilling) I became very comfortable with the torch under Victor's guidance. My husband made a knife out of a horse shoe and had a blast! We are so glad to have found this shop. Would absolutely recommend to anyone coming to San Antonio! It was a highlight of our trip!

Half-a-horse-shoe smiles all round!! Turned these into cool, little knives, so fun!

Our spring break in Gruene was greatly enhanced by bringing the 6 kids (aged 7-17) to Caylor & Forge. They all chose to forge a knife from a horse shoe. Jesus was incredibly kind, patient, professional and knowledgeable and did a great job guiding the kids to make their knives. Everything from start to finish was fun, engaging and performed to very high safety standards. Our kids had so much fun making their knives and then enjoying peeling apples and working with their knives at their campsite. I would highly recommend a visit to Caylor and Forge if you have kids who are able to follow instructions well, and enjoy creating a masterpiece, as well as making amazing memories! So glad we were able to do this with our kids. Thanks Jesus!!

Great visit and forging experience!

See all

They use an online student interface on Canvas with nearly zero actual educational absorption. The online learning is antithetical to the textbook you are expected to use for studying and passing the certifying exam. The vital sign values and limitations on Canvas do not match the textbook and when you ask the regional training leader (Tiffany Garza), they blame the student for not finding the correct resource instead of guiding and correcting. When the students in forum raised concerns about the resolutions to their concerns, the training leader struck back with accusations that one person is "always that aggressive" note that it was the only Black person in class. Module training does not mesh at all with the in-person practicum. I have multiple degrees and was a professional instructor for many years in college level aerospace instruction - this place is sad. The experience was rife with promises of student support with online meetings to perform program counseling services in which the counselors frequently no call/no show. They PROMISE you resources for job search or externship search that they do not deliver despite multiple reminders. If you have experience in medicine you will probably be fine. The cost is roughly $4600 for the 18 week program. Attend Northeast Lakeview College in town for a much better price! The two instructors here are FANTASTIC people, however. I wish them nothing but the best - they are not the problem.

Back in March my in laws enrolled my daughter in drivers Ed with San Marcos Driving School…read more Everything seemed to be going great until one of the last days of class. Two people came in yelling and cussing at the teacher wanting a refund because the teacher didn't complete his end. I didn't think too much of it at the time. I just felt bad for my daughter because she gets really bad anxiety anytime anybody yells, so she didn't want to return. The class and the driving part had already been paid in full. San Marcos driving school was closing and moving to new braunfels, so we opted to do "parent taught driving lessons." After fighting with the instructor for MONTHS we finally got the paperwork saying brooke finished the class portion. He would not mail the forms, he insisted that we drive to NB to pick them up. When my husband and I got there he had me waiting for 45 min just to hand me the paper because he "lost" it. Even though he knew someone was coming to pick it up. Then you have to wait 6 months after your permit to get your license. That brings us to today..... today I took my daughter to Texas driving school to sign up for her driving test so she can get her license. The amazing lady behind the desk informed me that the paperwork that I turned in his only half finished. That parent taught driving lessons have to be approved and have special forms. That everything we had was not sufficient to get her drivers license. Now remember the class was paid in full for the driving portion and the class portion with no refund. Now today I had to pay another $420 on top of what my in-laws had paid, to get the mandatory driving portion of it finished and the paperwork transferred so that it was all not for nothing. Never in 1 million years would I recommend San Marcos driving school or the ass hat that runs it. He was extremely unprofessional and very dismissive. He was asked multiple times if we needed anything for the parent taught courses and we were told repeatedly no that we just needed to keep a log. Save your time and go to Texas driving school in Kyle or anywhere else for that matter. Do not give your money to this thief who refuses to refund anything even tho his job was not finished!!!

We were looking for a place to continue practicing high level tumbling, after stepping away from…read morefull gymnastics, and the gym not offering dedicated floor/tumbling at the time. Shows Texas Storm offered tumbling level 4+, after going to a trial, we quickly realized there wasn't actually emphasis on high level tumbling. Tumbling class could only be performed in a sliver of the gym. The coach was great and seemed excited to work with my daughter, who was much more advanced than the class. He did explain that there will be more opportunity to practice tumbling on the actual floor, so we decided to move forward. I tried registering for the class, it said to call. I called, no answer, left messages- no call back. I suppose if you are interested in the tumbling aspect- high level tumbling class I'd just find a gymnastics gym that has the space and time for tumbling class. They will be better fit for high level floor/tumbling etc. and the needed space if it's offered. Mostly the class skill was not high level or even as they called it level 4+, however we were willing to give it a try with the coach that seemed interested to work with a skilled athlete. The lack of communication ultimately helped us realize that it wouldn't have been a good fit.

I would definitely recommend this gym to Anyone looking for a Nuturing, but still Competitive,…read morePositive, Kid-Friendly, Motivating atmosphere to have your kids grow and progress in! They cater to ALL skill levels. They offer a variety of classes, and the owners are very helpful, kind and willing to explain every detail of my child's plan for growth! She has enjoyed the cheer team and the dance team. The coaches really have an extensive background in the sport, and a remarkable references. The laxed, chill, welcoming non- judging environment is going to make you feel right at home. If you are looking for a gym to call home, and a place where your kid can grow this is the place!
