Love this place. I was looking for a place for my son and daughter who are both autistic. From the very start Jonathan was completely understanding about everything. When my son has any problems all I do is talk with Jonathan and we come up with a plan on how to fix things. My son loves it here. Since he has started here he has more confidence and a bit more control over his temper. He can't wait to go and wants to always do his best to impress. When just a few short months ago my son would barely leave the house. I love how this place has helped bring my son out of his shell some. We still have a long road ahead but I know being here is a good start for my son. I want to encourage other parents with autistic children to give this a shot. I know how scary it is just being a parent but to be a parent to children with disabilities is even harder and scarier. But there are ways to help your child and I'm sure this is one of those ways. I also want to say this is not just about how to defend yourself which don't get me wrong I love that. But it also teaches them respect, honor, control, self confidence, life skills, interaction, and a big one for children with autism is social skills. He's got better with all of these already.
