By chance I changed him to Lee's Martial Arts next to La Costa because it was near the other activities that my other child was doing. We love this school. I have sat in some of the classes since we started and I have felt inspired by how the instructors deal with the kids. I have worked in training since 1998 and I was impressed with how the instructors teach with warm discipline (being caring and strict at the same time). My son feels supported and respected in this school. The instructors are calm, caring while demanding the kids do their personal best. Most of all, Master Mujo, Himor and Wheaton are positive and build the kids up by motivating them with praise and telling them what they can do to improve.
They ask the students about their grades and they support parents if the student is struggling with behavior at school or home. The instructors have spent so much time helping my son improve aspects of his sparing and talking to him about how grades and respect for his parents are really important. I have never heard another teacher say this to my child. If you want a positive and confidence-building sport for your child, I would highly recommend this school. read less

He gave us a price quote of $145/month thereafter with a 6 month contract. Their classes are Tuesday and Thursday at 5p and Sat mornings, which unfortunately do not coordinate with our schedule but I was very pleased that they contacted us and were quick to reply and answer all of our questions.

If our schedule becomes more flexible in the future we would definitely look to invest in Lee's for training. read less
