Best Adult Japanese Language course, engaging and entertaining! Sensei teaches with a sense of humor and purpose. She wants her students to read, write down speak with ease and comfort like a native

I go here because of kendo classes. Today's class was difficult because of the heat. Pasadena had to have been in the 100's meaning the room was at least that. Good if you wanna sweat.
