Top notch muay thai instruction from former pro fighter Mark DeLuca. I really didn't know what to…read morelook for in a gym, and with a few muay thai gums around I lucked out and chose probably the best. Mark is very knowledgeable and patient with new students, but pushes you as hard as you need to be pushed. Joe, the owner and head bjj coach, is very welcoming and laid back. He explains the policies and lays everything out with no sales pitch. Make no mistake, this is a gym that trains fighters, not a mcdojo. However they were pretty welcoming to this out of shape middle age dude, got me started right in fundamentals, and I'm glad to have found them.

No, that' is incorrect information as I never once indicated my son had MMA experience and that is…read morea flat out lie. As instructors you are to ensure the safety of children that are in your care. You failed to do that as mentioned, I saw no activity from the instructors when my son was choking. This happened repeatedly and you should be ashamed of yourselves for calling yourself an instructor. At the start of class, your main concern was to get your liability form signed so you can negligently not take care of those who signed their rights over within your martial school. Animal control should be called for your aggressive dogs that you have open to the public. As you clearly said, "don't get too close" that enough tells you they're not safe to be around the public. The schedule you mentioned is only good for your school as you can maximize profits and not have to entertain different scheduling. So what if I pay the same price for my son attending your school half the time? Right? It's all about money first. My son was not safe and I would never ever not for 1 million years, bring my son back to your school. Your school should be closed to negligence. Parents please be aware and watch these instructors very carefully as I believe their actions speak for themselves. See if they are engaged or they hang out my the clock and focus on a countdown timer. As far as instructions, and from AI, from a child psychologist's view, young kids thrive on clear, consistent guidance but don't always need constant hand-holding. In martial arts, they might need frequent reminders early on to master steps or focus, especially if they're under ten. Structured repetition builds muscle memory, so gentle cues help without overwhelming them. As they grow confidence, ease up to encourage independence. I guess the instructors Ego's are more important than what's good for young children.

It has been 8 years since I have practiced Taekwondo because of having moved around so much, and…read moretrying to find a school my instructor, Grandmaster Soon Man Lee would suggest in the Northern VA area. It's a small world, and my good friend is the office manager and I got to meet up with THE Master Kim who I remembered would bring students over from Korea for a bit of a cultural Korean-US student exchange during summers past. Master Kim is legit, awesome, caring, really patient, and has a kind heart. I'm a former student from 15 years ago who will be going back to TKD-- finally-- because I've found an instructor and a school that I know teaches based on WTF standards. Dont't think that just because Master Kim doesn't have the title of a Grandmaster that he's any less qualified-- he has to have students who open their own schools to get that title here in the US, but he is considered one in Korea and is also going back in the Spring to test for his 7th Dan. I highly recommend this school if you would like to be taught TKD the correct way that will be recognized as a national Korean standard that can be taken with you no matter where you go. My Korean may be a little rusty but, "Chong jin tun il!" (I can do it!)

Second, there is no free class. My husband was required to pay $49 for clothing for my daughter to attend the "free" class. A month later, a charge for $249 appeared on our credit card. My daughter has been out of the country for a month. They are refusing to refund the fee. It seems they also made my husband sign a subscription agreement for the "free" class but told him there was no fee unless he decided to continue with classes after a month. He did not decide to continue because my daughter was out of the country but they have our credit card and used it.

Everyone's body and skills are so different, and these instructors fully embrace that. Their goal in Krav Maga is not to teach us pretty kicks and impressive moves - their goal is to make sure we get home to our loved ones safely. It is all about developing your mindset, muscle memory, and instincts so that, when it really counts, you avoid the deer-in-headlights effect. Even as a beginner, I feel like I walk around my community in Manassas with more confidence and awareness and have learned how to reduce my chances of being a victim in the first place. If for some reason you don't feel like you have the time to commit to classes, I HIGHLY recommend you check out their monthly seminars! Women's Self Defense, Edged Weapon Defense, Car Jacking Defense, and the list goes on!! After watching many of the kid's classes, I love what I see! They're teaching kids how to use their voice, how to stand up for themselves and when it is appropriate to take physical action.

The setup of the gym is also nice, and I really like the variety of bags available. Having different types of bags to train on is a big plus, especially if you're serious about MMA, boxing, or Muay Thai. That being said, there are definitely some areas that need improvement. The weight room section is where I'd have to knock some stars off. Equipment maintenance appears to be a recurring issue. When something breaks, it takes an extended period to get it fixed or even to initiate a work order from what it seems like since I been there or it stays "Out of Order." but for example, since I've been a member, I haven't seen any work done on the sauna that's advertised but has been out of order the entire time as well as a couple of other exercise machines. The cardio machines also feel like they're on their last leg, some of them are clearly worn down. A number of the machines could use updating, and the overall upkeep of the gym (including things like visible holes, wear and tear on the walls) could be better. I'd rate the general maintenance and upkeep around a 4.5/10. On the positive side, I'm still able to get all my workouts in, and the pricing is pretty reasonable for what you get i guess for the building space that it is. I just really have to adjust my workouts. With better maintenance and some updates, this gym could easily be top-tier. Overall: Decent gym with strong classes and training options, but it definitely needs improvements in maintenance and equipment upkeep. Honestly, I can't recommend this gym because of the ongoing issues with upkeep and maintenance.
