The overall demeanor of the staff was very rude and unwelcoming, which made an already frustrating…read moresituation even worse. I had a very disappointing experience with this jujitsu studio. I called ahead and spoke to a woman who told me to come in on Thursday for an assessment class for my son. When we arrived (30 minutes early), I was told it was a misunderstanding, and he could only watch, not participate. I had already scheduled a babysitter for this, so it was extremely frustrating. On top of that, I had to ask multiple times to speak with someone, and when I finally spoke with the main coach, he was incredibly short with me, showed zero patience, and dismissed us without any real explanation or flexibility. For a business that works with children, I would expect much more understanding and adaptability. The entire experience was unpleasant, and I will not be returning or recommending this studio to others.

Many kids were not following basic directions and because their parents paid, they were moved to next color, not how it should be done based on skill and discipline. Decided this wasn't for us and stopped attending, they have copied my credit card info and charged my credit card without my authorization 2x for months he has never even attended and when I have requested to be refunded I've been given the run around, been told it processed, showed up and no one is ever available that can address these issues. Had to file a dispute and open investigation with my credit card company. They are scammers and only interested in $$$ NEVER GIVE THEM YOUR CREDIT CARD INFO!!!

I think its his personality. I have been too several Karate America were he has been, and I always look forward seeing him. If you live in the Miami Lakes area and you a considering taking karate lessons, stop in, watch or even take a class, you won't be disappointed. This is a great school for you and your children. Most of the instructors from the other schools were here tonight, and doesn't seem to matter which school they are from are some of the nicest people I have had the pleasure of being around. Tonight they had a special event. Max Van Eck, an ATA world champion, with multiple titles came down from Detroit to do a couple of classes for the kids. He was excellent and the kids were excited to be able to participate.

"Karate America" in Miami Lakes would not allow my son, a black belt in Gojo-Ryu Karate, to fight with his 'Top Ten" head gear which is used in the Olympics. He used this gear in all of his tournaments and got 4 "National Grand Champion" with it in NASKA. I refused to allow him to fight with their cheap ass equipment let alone buy it. I asked them to prove me wrong on the head gear and they couldn't. I asked to speak to the manager by the name of Silva but it is much easier to reach Obama than to speak to her. I apologized to my son for wasting his time not learning anything new. I then apologized to myself for allowing these thieves to take my money and by me signing a contract with a penalty for quitting. Beware of the timer that they use for every second that you child is in class. God forbid that they give you one extra minute. This place should be called "Karate for Fools".
