Pollet's is a business first and a gym second. I trained at Pollet's for about 3 months, the training itself seemed extremely tournament-orientated. Everything was geared to buying stuff, it was pretty much mandatory to buy a Pollet's shirt and shorts. Then I was told I needed a longsleeve Pollet's shirt to do jiu jitsu. Bear in mind, this was about $100 for a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. While some of the instructors were quite good, one younger male instructor was wholly arrogant and treated the class like his own little boot camp. The dojo culture is some kind of odd, pseudo-militaristic regime that was pretty jarring compared to other MMA gyms I'd trained in. Much of the time I felt like I was being ordered around.The marketing never stops. Buy more gear. Come to a $200 one day masterclass. The minimum membership price is $20 a week and a lot more if you want to do more than one day.The worst part is when I tried to cancel my membership, I had to sign an exit clause saying I had to give a month's notice. Paying for a service I didn't intend to use for another month was bad enough, but then after the month was up my account was still being charged. I rang twice to resolve the situation, was informed they had lost the document I signed and I would not be charged anymore and my money would be refunded. I was charged again the very next day, and there is no refund or cessation of the charges in sight. There seems to be no dedicated admin staff, and trying to talk to anyone about your membership is incredibly difficult. Most of the time the front desk is completely unmanned. A good deal of the time, the phones are unmanned too. When you do ring, the line connection is terrible and the staff are generally ineffectual, promising to "call you back" (they won't) or telling you you have to come down to the dojo on "saturday, monday or tuesday" only to resolve an issue.
Pollets has so many options of martial arts for all ages to try and excel at. Great instructors that keep the energy up and encourage you no matter what your goal is. I love that I can train with my kids and not just watch from the sidelines. If the kids get a lil tired of one discipline they can easily try another without having to change clubs or they can do as many as they like to compliment the main discipline they are training in. If you want to get fit and strong for yourself or want to take it further and attend competitions or fight in the ring, this is the place to train.
A brillant place to train. Motivating, supportive and fun. If you want to get fit and strong, this is the place to come.
Fantastic family fitness center. The little tigers classes have done amazing things for our children while the addition classes for parents that are planned at the same time are fantastic
My children started at Pollet's a few weeks back and I am extremely impressed with both of my girls personal achievements so far. Learning a life skill and taking this sport as far as you wish (for the committed into adult hood) is priceless. Karate and the other disciplines they teach are valuable for each and every child/adult. Self esteem, confidence, coordination, fitness, body language, self awareness, mind, body and soul are just some of the advantages. Pollet's are professionally run with highly qualified instructors dedicated in teaching martial arts. Communication has to be vast and clear, from the very young to the more mature who train. Watching and listening to the instructors to which have mastered the delivering of instructions clearly therefore becoming visible to the group or individual. From a Mother's point of view I can not recommend them highly enough and am truly grateful my girls both expressed interest in learning such an ancient stlye of self defense and chose Pollet's as their inspiration and mentor through their journey. Thank you to the team at Pollet's and allowing my girls to better themselves as individuals for hopefully many years to come training under your supervision and expertise. It's more than just a sport it's life skills and personal development. If your thinking about starting either yourself or children stop thinking do it!
