I'm an absolute beginner and I thoroughly enjoyed this class. Buzzing for the next one.

It's a good location, good amount of time per class, friendly instructor and students, everyone feels patient and it feels like the people there don't just care about improving themselves, but also helping others improve [...] I never tried other shorinji kempo classes, but I know that this particular one is great, and totally sold me on the martial art, one which I knew nothing about before coming. Totally deserves a 5/5 rating. :)

​Been there few times, great place for beginners to learn a new martial art. Really unique approach of teaching and training. And BTW the venue is just simply amazing and spacious.
