Here's a review by Linda T. from San Jose posted on 3/15/11.  Thank you Linda!

My son has been taking classes here for over a year now and thoroughly enjoys it.  It's the first organized group activity that he has truly enjoyed and stayed with longer than a year.  There are so many wonderful qualities about this dojo (school) that it's hard to know where to start.  Sunny Sensei truly lives up to his name and is a very warm and caring instructor.  He makes the kids feel at ease but at the same time has high expectations of them.  The instructors carefully monitor the students and recommend them for testing only when they are ready, not according to an arbitrary time table, thus ensuring success and confidence-building.  There is also a great team spirit here and older students are encouraged to attend the younger kids' classes to help them train.  All belt levels are expected to help newcomers.  I could go on & on, but want to share one last thing that happened a few months after my son started his Aikido training.  He was riding his skateboard and I was walking the dog behind him when he hit a crack in the sidewalk. The skateboard came to a sudden stop as the front wheels caught and he went flying onto the asphalt.  In one of those moments where time seems to slow down, he executed a nice little roll, head over heels, just like in class, and got up completely unscathed!  In that moment, I knew his training was well worth the time and money!
