Fantastic experience: Tried most clubs north of the bridge and hands down this is the best. So grateful to have found such a awesome professor and club Environment . No egos and everyone welcome. I would not go anywhere else now. If you were like me and couldn't decide on a club to take your jits to the next level or a beginner starting out this is the place for you!
