The studio looks a bit worn but don’t judge this book by its cover. The Stallards are very active in their studio. I enrolled our daughter after her teachers had a meeting with my wife regarding my daughters behavioral issues at school. My daughter is rather sedentary so I thought some martial arts might help improve her self discipline and ward off a future of obesity and all the health problems that go with it. She has been attending class 2 days a week for a month. I’m surprised by how fast she has learned while at the s as me time loving every minute of it. She has mastered the first 8 bsic forms and is well on her way to mastering the rest. Best of all no write ups from school for the month of December. The instructors are excellent and work incredibly well with kids. Judging from the teachers their adult program produces it must be very good also. I highly recommend the Arlington School of Self Defense.
