If you are a parent who needs to teach your children discipline, beware of this academy. While martial arts is being taught and you can find some wonderful people, Michael Norvell is the owner and his is ignorant and verbally abusive. I witnessed him cussing out his student a teen ager in front of other minor children. He threatened to kick out his F____ ribs and said he would be S____ out of his side. OMG This is not discipline and is verbal abuse. If you want your children to be intimidated by his ranting, then by all means bring them. In this day and age maybe for some that is acceptable, but as a mother this is over the top. I am not paying for that. Im trying to life my children's esteem not have them scared to death by his adhd/manic depressive episodes.
