CUSTOMER REVIEWS

I have always held an interest in martial arts but lacked the time and commitment as a young adult. I joined
Arashi-Do in my 40’s and it continues to be a great physical and mental challenge. I am at the beginning of an exhilarating and challenging adventure and look forward to growing my skills with Arashi-Do.

Sean P.

My Sensei is an absolute professional.

Not only is she an expert in martial arts but she is also a fantastic teacher.

Russell

I have been with Arashi-Do for almost six years now. First class facility, very clean and well maintained with lots of space. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable, friendly, welcoming and open. An expert balance of pushing you to your limits while making sure no one gets hurt. Not just a club, but a family.
