PHX Rocks! Richmond is a smaller location. Not to familiar with it either. But, I definately think that it would be best to visit and tour the locations that you are interested in before making any sort of decision. You should be able to guage if you will like the facility within a couple of minutes and by talking to as many students and instructors. You have to like the location to be able to get through the 90 day and it doesnt hurt to get to know some of your possible instructors.
