Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because: As already mentioned, I believe the contract we signed and tuition we paid were done under a deliberately misleading promise from this businessI again reject this responseOnly if the business refunds me $for the unused lessons will I will accept the responseIf not, which I assume they will not do per their nasty communication until now, I am comfortable with this review and complaint remaining on their Revdex.com page as a result of this interaction.

July 24, 2015RE: Revdex.com Complaint ID ***Dear Ms***,Please see our response below (and attached) regarding this issue dated June 9, in which Mrs*** communicated with us on Facebook and Yelp:Dear ***,We are sorry to hear that you disagree with our method of instilling the
ethic in students that they must earn the privilege to wear the karate giIt is true, other dojos do not have this requirement, and while we cannot speak to their motivations, our decision is by designUnfortunately, we were unable to explain this and continue our conversation since you abruptly ended the callWe pride ourselves in the quality of our instruction and our students' successThe appearance of subjectivity that you refer to is simply that some students, especially very young ones, are more emotionally mature than others of the same age and are, therefore, ready for their gi sooner after the requisite month of trainingSome students also have the added support from their parents to help reiterate at home the lessons learned at the dojo, and we find this to be one of the most important factors in the development of our most successful studentsOur methods can be challenging, but the results in our student body speak for themselves.We do apologize if you felt insulted by being "laughed at"; it was simply in response to an unprecedented threat to "see you on social media."Sincerely,Washington Karate Ballard DojoPlease contact us if you have more questions or concerns regarding this matter.Sincerely,Matthew D**, Owner Washington Karate Ballard Dojo
