Satisfaction Electric Barras
"Our overall experience with this location wasn't very great. The instructors are knowledgeable, however if you can't attend more than 2-3 times a week at $175 a month is very pricey. The cancelation fee is a 60 days notice which you have to pay before they close your account and it was extremely difficult communicating with the owner to get this done. It took us weeks and a ton of texting and email in order for them to close our account and not be charged even though we were told it was "taken care of". Hopefully in the future they will get better with communication and they will have more returning clients."

"If you want to learn to defend yourself, and hand to hand combat, this is the place. Professors and coaches are patient and thorough. Monthly price is decent for 4 days a week. My son really enjoy learning here. I definitely recommend this place."
