"My nephew William is 8 years old and has almost completed his third year of training at Sticks and Stones. I’ve had the opportunity to see him compete in multiple practices and 2 very large competitions in Jacksonville, and I’m so impressed with the coaches and the environment of this dojo!!! I highly recommend!!!"
