Overall Experience
The reviews highlight a contrasting view of the karate school, with one author praising the experience and the other expressing some reservations.
Positive Reviews
Author Eriq Abonie has a glowing review, stating that his two boys love attending the karate school, citing the experienced instructor and traditional karate teaching methods. He notes that the children have grown in confidence and become more disciplined and responsible since starting sessions. He also highlights the health and fitness benefits and plans to join himself and enroll his daughter when she's old enough.
Negative Reviews
On the other hand, Author Tim Gardner's review is more critical. He mentions that the venue has some infrastructure issues, including punched sockets and uneven floors. While acknowledging that the space is an advantage for children's football, he expresses disinterest in the karate aspect, having previously held a black belt and not finding it appealing.
