It all started when I decided I wanted to have a better exercise regimen. I was unsatisfied with working out in a regular fitness gym, I worked in health care, and I understand that their primary culture was to live it. I was all for it, and it did spark me to get in gear. I was due for another weight loss, I gained too much from not enough exercise and I was tired of dragging around my spare tire.

I have been training at The Academy for the last 3 years in private lessons and classes. I remember being one of the three women in classes and you are treated very well. I'm happy to see that more women are joining classes and I think overall it's a fun experience and you're learning to defend yourself!

I have to say this was one of the better choices I have made for my physical fitness and having played high impact sports all my life, this was a great fit. I lost 40lbs in the first 6 months, and then another 20lbs in a year. I was very committed to coming because the curriculum is interesting, the coaches are positive, awesome, and push you to do the best you can. The members that are there are very kind, friendly, dedicated and supportive.

You will be challenged and pushed, this gym isn't for people that are not committed in making a real lifestyle change.  They offer you a potential to really see what you're made of.  It is hard for a reason, and the coaches and people that are there are willing to get you to your goals.

You will find some of the hardest working and passionate individuals at this gym.

I really have appreciated what I have been able to accomplish at The Academy, and I will continue to attend The Academy as long as I can.

Where to begin? It's a great crew, an impressive curriculum and some serious experience running the classes. I have always been made to feel welcome and have never felt that I was just being allowed to go through the motions. All instruction has been top notch (respectful and positive; constructive feedback) and I am grateful to have the opportunity to train here!

The Academy is one of a handful of training facilities that I can wholeheartedly recommend.  I recall many years ago, when a person training at the Academy was provoked in my business by a mentally challenged person.  The boast by the person immediately had the attention of the Academy’s student, (he was in his face) but after a moment, the Academy student just walked away.  Upon returning to the store that evening for an item the person had been interested in, I thanked him for not escalating the situation.    The person told me that he looked into the boasters eyes, and knew that he was not fully aware of what he had just said, and knew to walk away.  I’ve told this story of training and discipline to many customers looking to train seriously in martial arts, the right way.  Kerry, MKS
