Great location. Great teacher. Everything is taught in a down to earth manner, meaning it's friendly for newcomers and advanced martial artists alike. From the moment you go in, you'll realize the good energy and vibes. Instructor Darren has been at it for a while, and you can tell due to his seasoned teaching style and patience.

Also, he is aware of what truly works, and what doesn't, and his knowledge of flow, and the steps to better technique are vast in scope. Real martial arts.
