Hear What Parents Have To Say...

My twins have been going here for almost 6 months now. My kids love their teachers, and I love the peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for. They use the Brightwheel parent app, so I constantly get updates, pictures, and videos throughout the day of my little ones. The pricing is very affordable with the amount of hours you get—I can even get off work and grocery shop before picking up my kids. The teachers have excellent patience to cater to my kids' specific needs medically and emotionally.

My son attended after-school and summer camp for 4 years, and we couldn't have been happier. My three younger children have attended summer camp for 2 years and hope to return for a few weeks this summer. Kristal even went out of her way to take a group of kids to skate practice 2 days a week so the parents didn't have to leave work early. The staff also took personal time to help me with my troubled pre-teen to improve behavior. I consider them family and am grateful for all they do for the children.

I have known Professor Gallop for over 20 years. I started training with him back in 1995 at the age of 7. He has been a father figure to me all these years. I’ve been fortunate enough to have worked in their after-school program and have seen firsthand how everyone is treated. There is no better place to take your kids to learn martial arts. Hands down, the best place to learn, period, as long as you just TRUST THE PROCESS. I am a living example of trusting the process. You will learn more about martial arts and more about yourself from Professor Gallop.

Our experience has been nothing but positive with Gallop's. We enrolled our step-grandson in summer karate camp while he was in our care and could not be happier with the results. The kids at Gallop's are treated extremely well, provided nutritious lunches and snacks, and participate in a variety of activities, including movies, swimming, bowling, skating, and karate. Gallop's handles discipline issues promptly and fairly and notifies you of any problems they've encountered. You cannot ask for a better program for kids. Thank you, Kristal, Gallop, and staff!!

Great place for the whole family to train. Gallop and his staff have been wonderful. My family and I have been training there for 4 months, and the experience has been awesome. Gallop's, in my opinion, are very fair and willing to work with you if you are committed to the art.
