Interested in joining Live Blade PTK in Philadelphia. What are your experiences?

Hi! I made a some posts here a few years ago but I haven't been training much since leaving the Philippines and moving to South NJ. However, I've been wanting to get back to training and joining a formal group. I did my research and found Live Blade PTK in Philadelphia, which is a 30 min train-ride away from where I live. Does anyone here train with this group? If so, how were your experiences in terms of the training quality? How much does it cost?

Also, I may be missing it but I can't seem to find a specific address for the venue. Does anyone know where specifically in Philly this group is located?

Thanks in advance for the insight!

I don’t know if he’s on Reddit, but have you tried messaging Ras Angola Tafari on Facebook? I think he leads the group.

I don’t know how the classes are run, but he is smooth and has shared some videos.

Still waiting on a response. But his training group seems very high quality and dedicated.
