Through the years, I'd studied other martial arts, but Jeet Kune Do was always that mysterious discipline that I never saw on tv or knew anyone that practiced it. But like every scrawny Asian kid that I grew up with, Bruce Lee was of course our hero. I'd come to grips with the fact that I'd never be able to find any JKD teachers, let alone any good ones. Fast forward to last year when I found some YT clips of something called the Wednesday Night Group. At first, it looked like a bunch of older dudes that worked insurance jobs, but, when you watch the videos, WOW! After getting sucked into another YT black hole, I found out that one of them, Sifu Raimondi, was a teacher just a few minutes away from me. I called, attended my first class--instantly hooked. What is apparent is that they care not only about preserving the principles that Bruce taught, but they truly care about your safety and getting you to a point where you can SAVE YOUR OWN LIFE, if put in the situation. JKD is no-frills; it's putting an end to a confrontation quickly. Or, if you just want to get in shape, the conditioning portion of the class run by Sifu's son, will make you question your life choices. It's even worth the tuition just to hear stories about the students of Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee! Nevertheless, it's all done in a learning environment where it's catered to your speed of learning and all questions are welcomed. Classes are two, sometimes three, times a week. You can come and go and reserve/cancel spots through the app. Parking is ample and classes are during the evenings at a later time so it doesn't interfere with my work schedule. Equipment is wiped down and there are sanitizing stations throughout. Check it out and see you on the mat!

I dont ever do reviews, let alone Google unless absolutely necessary and in this case, while searching for a JKD gym, I felt it was deemed necessary. No ifs, buts or maybes - this businesss customer service department was by far the worst Ive ever experienced in my lifetime. The lady on the other end was even starting a full blown argument with me. It was ludicrous! Suffice to say, they lost me as a potential client and a few others (some of my friends were interested as well). Of course, I didnt check out the facility or engage in a free session so I cant rate how they run things, train and so on. However, it tells a lot about a business when you get a horrendous interaction from one of their employees. Hmmm it goes to tell how the gyms atmosphere may be in its entirety. If I could give this place 0/5, you bet ya I would.
