★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Excellent and Empowering Lesson!Sensi Rob does a fantastic job teaching the kids about stranger danger in a way that was age-appropriate, engaging, and easy to understand. The message was clear, and the delivery made the children feel confident rather than scared. I really appreciated how Sensi Rob emphasized awareness, safety, and using your voice. A must-have lesson for every child and school. Our students love when Sensi Rob visits… “discipline we love discipline!!!” Thank you Leafing Edge for all your amazing work over the years.
August 03 · Amy johnsonParticipated in the Free Woman’s Self Defense Workshop last night with friends. We all agreed Rob and his team did a great job with fantastic takeaways! Highly recommend!
June 19 · Laura Farrell30 days before pausing services we emailed the owner to PAUSE until march due to our work situation. We could not make it to the meetings - to talk about how we need to PAUSE services because we are working long hours for two months.We were then charged - when we asked to PAUSE services, so of course I disputed the charge. Its been two months, and he STILL charging my second credit card on file. It has been DISPUTED AGAIN.My kids are now at another Karate place- WOW the difference, when we brought up this place- the sensei told us how LEMA is just a BUSINESS careless to actually teach- which i can see in one month my kids are stronger, more motivated and I do not have to fight with them to go to Karate.We were threatened - that he would send us to collections, etc... Which we told him GO AHEAD- we told you to PAUSE SERVICES, then to STOP services- he harassed all of the phone numbers that we had in the contact info- emails etc.Obviously - they are nice while you FIRST start- but make it HELL to leave to a better place.
March 24 · Emilia OrtizMy son has been attending classes for about 3 months. He likes it. I can tell he's building strength and form. I love the open space parents have to spread out while we wait - you're not squished into a little area. There's tables to work at or seats to watch. Everyone is very nice. A positive experience so far!
January 12 · Melissa UffClose to a year ago, my now 16 year old daughter expressed an interest in martial arts. She plays competitive volleyball but wanted to try something that was her and her alone. I contacted LEMA to see if she could go in and see how it was, if she would be interested, etc. She met with Sensei Rob and loved it. She joined, and shortly thereafter, her father decided to join as well. Both my husband and daughter love the facility, the staff and classes. They love the flexibility of being able to schedule classes when convenient for them. And bonus, some of my daughter's closest friends are people that she has met through the school.
