You need to experience the martial art class first hand (in person) in order to gain the most knowledge and the details about the classes offered.

Experiencing the techniques for yourself is worth the small effort of scheduling an appointment.  This is why we always strongly

encourage anyone that is interested in checking us to schedule a

self-defense skills, and a stronger sense of community togetherness.
