Prior to ever coming in I reached out for pricing. Was told they have a great deal, 2 weeks with uniform for $49. I tell them my concern is long term affordability, and I need to know pricing after the trial. The tell me it’s $155/ month. We come in, my daughter loves it, we complete the trial, the they tell me it’s $350 to join, plus more money monthly.
Posted 1 year agoMy kids have taken JiuJitsu here for a year now and the coaches have worked so well with them. The facility is clean and the staff is excellent. I began Muay Thai a few months ago and I’m loving it. So thankful for Tiger Academy and all they do.
Posted 1 year agoOur daughter started attending classes at Tiger Academy Martial Arts approximately 2-3 months ago. It was a decision that came with a lot of deliberation. We have had some incidences on the bus, some things at school, some things at aftercare. All things that definitely upset me as a parent. Things that made me just want to shrink myself and put myself into her pocket so I could pop out when necessary. I know that's just not possible. After these Incidents we talked to officials at all places. They try their best at all these places. Unfortunately they just cannot be everywhere all the time to keep other children from acting like arses. Witty comebacks and telling the teachers, officials etc is just not enough in today's climate. We came and checked out Tiger Academy of Martial Arts. Staff is super pleasant and attentive. We did the two week trial. We watched the classes and talked to our daughter. We decided to sign up for classes. A couple of weeks ago an incident happened at school during lunch. Two children (one a play date friend) one a classmate. One pushed her. One was talking rude and accusing her of cheating at thr game they were playing. Let me tell you what happened: She not stood her ground. She calmly spoke to both children. She called the one on his language and cheating accusations. Calling him on havingngame rules he told no one. She calmly talked to her friend who pushed her and told her flat out. Not to touch her physically because no one has the right to do that to anyone. What happened was a shock to me. Both children actually responded in a positive manner. They were all able to move forward. When she came home and told me about the incident I have never been more proud of her. She told me that stood up for herself because of Tiger Martial Arts. She said what she learns in class helped her feel confident enough to handle the moment. Between the student creed, classes the amazing Sensei's and staff , home practice and friendship and family atmosphere, we have definitely landed in the right place. What our daughter was able to do in the moment rl is priceless. It's a step towards a positive correct direction of not taking any shit off anyone. I highly recommend checking them out. It could change your kids life.
Posted 1 year agoMy daughters have been participating in both the after-school pick-up program and summer camp, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. The entire team, from the front desk staff to the instructors, is incredibly welcoming and friendly. We love being part of the Tiger community!
Posted 2 years agoCan't say enough good things about this place! My son was very defiant, rude and argumentive. We enrolled him in karate at about age 7, then jujitsu later. He's now almost 9 and has improved greatly in his attitude and confidence. He's much more polite and respectful while still being himself. Even if we do have a spat of the old behavior issues, they are short lived. Plus he absolutely loves it! He's really thrived here. These instructors care about these kids and want them to succeed. Will say it's a bit more pricey then most after school programs, but with the classes, offers more. The saying holds true, you get what you pay for! Glad my child is enrolled here
