I have worked in child care for 17 years, against my better judgment I sent my 6 year old here for summer camp in hopes that things have changed. I was told "this camp loses children" on my first day of picking my son up, they couldn't find him. I waited for a good 10 mins before my son was brought to me. By the way you see absolutely NOTHING, you have no clue what the building even looks like. They do not ID parents on their first day.. or anyone else for that matter. My husband, mother and girl friend all picked up my son and weren't even questioned. I witnessed the wrong Nicholas be brought to a parent. There is a huge lack of supervision as I witnessed children wandering around inside just to be yelled at to go back outside. They don't seem to do much about bullying and/or care. I was also told that I would be refunded for a week that my son attended soccer camp, and that was beyond a struggle. I was belittled by the owner, called "little girl" and laughed at. Save yourself the stress and uneasy feeling of sending your kids here.

I do NOT recommend this summer camp at all. My 9yr told and 6yr old attended here this summer and it has been an all around bad experience. First of all, my 6 year old son has been bullied almost every day since he has attended and nothing has been done about it, he tells the counselors who just tell him to go play. He has been slapped in the face, punched in the stomach, flipped from his legs onto his back and kicked and punches in the stomach while on the ground and the only reason I know was because my daughter called me to notify me, not the school. The counselors response once again was to go play. My son was hiding with his friend bc they were scared and no adults would help. Being hit by other kids has been a daily occurrence for him. I had a meeting with the owner to hopefully solve all of this, instead he told me my kids are no longer allowed to attend since them and I do not feel safe having them there.. so instead of fixing the issue of bullying, they kicked my kids out for speaking up. Multiple kids complain about not being allowed inside other than at lunch time and if they choose not to swim they can watch a movie for an hour. Other than that, they are to be outside and are told they cannot go inside to cool off , they can sit in the shade, this was even going on during a heatwave, over 90 degrees out and they couldn’t take 5 minutes in the AC to cool down.. I have had my kids in daycare’s since they were babies and I have never had any issues like this before. Please do not send your kids to this camp .. it is truly horrible & the adults that run this place will just lie to you when you bring anything to their attention. I have other moms who I have spoken to and have similar issues - please save yourself the stress and the money and find somewhere else where your kids will be safe and cared for.

My 9 year old daughter started here three weeks ago for summer camp I assumed since it was a karate place there would be some structure boy was I wrong. My daughter‘s first concern was that she had to get changed in front of other kids. My biggest concern was an altercation occurred between two older kids that ended up on YouTube and the school neglected to notify me that my child was a witness to this. Upon picking my child up two days later, after I found out about the altercation, I simply asked in the future if an incident occurred as the parent I be notified that something occurred while my child was present . I was told by the owner that fights happen. This was normal behavior amongst children, and that I would not be notified if my child witnessed future incidents. He told me I could take my child home and go . The lack of structure and respect they offer I wouldn’t allow them to even watch my dog let alone my child . Bring your kids at your own risk

We have been bringing our 2.5 year old for about 6 months. We started with the trial and he loved it. The instructors are great with the 2-3 year olds even though its like herding cats. Its a lot of fun to watch and we continue to enjoy bringing him. Everyone is very kind and helpful.

This gym is fantastic!! The gym is large, the mats are immaculate (the mats are brand new and the environment is clean), the people are welcoming, and the instruction is excellent! I was looking for a place to train on vacation and they were so nice to welcome me in. I did a Tuesday morning at 6 am and there were a lot of people! The rounds were INCREDIBLE and coach Vinny was an awesome teacher!! This is an amazing gym

I live and train in ATX but when I visit my family in the area I've dropped into this gym and it's a fantastic spot to train. The instruction is top notch, the rolling partners are great, and it is a super welcoming environment. But probably the best part is even though I am visitor I am treated like every other member and the professors make it a point to coach me like any of their other full time students. As someone who travels frequently and trains around the country this has been one of the best experiences. Excited to return for a few classes over the holidays!

I came for a trail class because I wanted to check out gyms in the area. It happened to be that one of the instructors passed away the day before so I didn’t get to see what a regular class looks like. But what I did see is that this gym is a strong and supportive community that I think is a unique and hard thing to find environment. They set me up with private lesson on the side of the class to teach me the basics the level of friendliness that I received from the staff was amazing. They also invited me to come back and check out again for free to get a better feel for the gym. Also another thing I saw is the gym is chilled so no bow ins or making you leave the minute class ends. Also all the mats were brand new they have locker rooms and there is plenty of parking. Thank you guys for letting me come by for a free trial.

I’m from out of town and did a drop in class. The instructor Vinny was super welcoming and his instruction was first rate. I picked up some details that I will definitely use. The 6 am class had about 10 ppl which was more than I expected for an early class and all the guys were awesome and gave some good rolls. I will definitely come Back next time I’m in town and anyone local should definitely consider joining! It was also super clean. Great place to train!

George Sullivan, as an amazing head coach. He is one of the best strikers in the northeast history and had a very successful run in the UFC. He established the best conscious in the area and created an all star MMA coaching staff. Spices beginner friendly and family oriented don’t hesitate to stop in!

Evolution has provided such a wonderful first martial arts experience for our toddler. The parent/child class provided him with the right level of comfort and introduction to early skills. The independent toddler class helped work on his independence and confidence. Every class is structured in a way that encourages learning and direction following. Donna and the assistant instructors show an exceptional level of patience and understanding, in combination with the discipline we were expecting of martial arts.

Peyton has truly enjoyed taking karate here. The staff is amazing and really make an effort to help everyone succeed. The class has not only taught him karate but has helped him with his balance and agility for soccer. It has helped him with his confidence and respect for others around him. I cannot thank everyone at Evolution Martial for all the hard work and wonderful classes. Thank you, thank you for all you do!

We have been taking our son here for the Toddler classes. It's hard to put into words how great sensei Donna and all of the instructors are and how amazing it is to watch my son grow and learn here. I would recommend it to any parents looking for a way to help their kids learn patience, strength, coordination and, so much more.
