For Self-Defense classes:…read more We did a family self-defense class previous to a trip we were about to take. Master Michael Catron showed our children how to be 'situationally aware', and used the great analogy of owning the salad bar - don't let anyone in your way, don't let anyone split the group, and no one gets to the tomato crock before you! Also, I took the Women's Self-Defense class with Master Hilary Catron. I travel a lot, and being a woman there is always a safety concern. Even just walking alone down a street or in a different city can be scary. Master H. Catron was very helpful and had us practice defense moves repeatedly to help us get used to the motions and the force required. I'm more confident and better prepared to handle an unwanted situation. Child's Birthday Party: My youngest son had his Birthday celebration at Catron's Chung Do Kwan Tae Kwon Do. The group had a wonderful time. They did self-defense, broke boards, played samurais with foam swords, did jiujitsu with balloons, and practiced some Tae Kwon Do movements. Master M. Catron was so great with the kids and really knew how to interact with them. I was really impressed how he had all of their names memorized. This helped the kids to connect and enjoy the activities. The best part was, the kids were exhausted and had a great workout for the day.

My family and I have been attending Catron's Chung Do Kwan school for nearly 3 years, and it has…read morebeen a great experience for all of us. There are very few athletic activities where the whole family can participate, and Taekwondo allows us to all exercise together. No longer do I have to leave the family at home while I go to the gym. Or more likely, not go at all. Taekwondo is built into the family's schedule and we all look forward to going! Even better, I'm not waiting around, bored, for a kid's sportball practice to be over - I'm there on the floor with them. The instructors are professional and thorough, yet friendly, and encourage each student to perform to their individual best. They are especially good with children, and instill discipline and focus into them. Catron's blend of Taekwondo, various other arts, and self defence keeps things interesting. I would recommend Catron's Chung Do Kwan to anyone wanting to improve not just their physical fitness but their lifestyle as well.

Nice facilities. It…read moreis really hard to get a weight workout in. People virtually SIT on their machine and stare at their phones. For minutes on end. Sometimes people - all "macho" men - will hog 2 or more machines at the same time. So you have to wait around for people who don't know SQUAT about how to work out. I've had this happen on numerous occasions. Gets tiresome. When you mention this to the staff, they don't do a thing to rectify the problem.

I had a very bad interaction with an employee of the Y. She approached me while I was in the middle…read moreof my set to tell me I was breaking one of their rules. On top of that, she thought it was appropriate to wear her gym clothes and no indication that she works there. I had to ask if she worked at the gym. It's confusing to be in the middle of your set and interrupted in an unethical and moral way. As a young woman, I go to the gym to feel strong and sure of myself, not to be harassed by an employee of the y who is in the middle of their workout. It's hard for me to be in the weight area I general. Due to this experience, I no longer feel comfortable continuing to go to this Y. Hopefully in the future, the employees will be trained in how to approach those who go to the gym. For the future young women who have a hard time being comfortable in the weight area, if anything.
