Let me start by saying I DO NOT work for Dragon Fire, nor am I a student.
However, I have had the opportunity to watch classes at both their full time locations and the community center class in the Arden Area. So, I can only guess that Michael1269 must have reviewed this school in error. Either that or his hobby is posting erroneous reviews of businesses.
Dragon Fire is successful for one reason, they are good. The instructors truly care about their students and want them to succeed. Unlike many chain schools that focus on looking flashy to do well at tournaments, Dragon Fire teaches their students based on a firm foundation of skill and ethics.
And while it is true that some of the instructors have some weight on them, they are lifelong martial artists with multiple black belts in a variety of disciplines.
I would rather have one Lois (the ""obese"" Chief Instructor) in my corner than 5 of the reviewer above. I would say that he watches too many Steven Seagal movies, but then I remembered Steven is technically obese so probably not.
My advice, if you are interested in Dragon Fire, set up a time to watch a class and make your own decision.
