My son started at 2.5 years old and has been working with Sensei Deegan for more than 2 years. Sensei Deegan is fantastic with balancing teaching mechanics, teaching discipline, and building confidence with the kids. He has flexed approach, schedule, etc for my son on several occasions to make sure he is in the best environment for learning. I have seen my son flourish in this environment and he can't wait to go each week. I highly recommend.
