The music is annoying.

Well, there doesn't seem to be anything on the website that suggests it's NOT genuine, but then the only way to find out if it IS genuine in that case is to go there and find out, or talk to people who have had direct experience with that school.

Well
1) they do the 'real' Goju katas
2) they stress historical value
3) looks pretty genuine

But yeah, go and take a class, meet the people, etc... only way to find out

I agree with Goju1. However, if we are going by their website; BAD! BAD! BAD! That site is very annoying in my opinion.

This sort of thread belongs in the Getting Started in the Martial Arts forum, so I moved it here

I agree. I don´t like the colors or the layout, but the school itself seems Ok. Go and give it a try.
