Kama Jiu-Jitsu

“The training and community at Kama has been GREAT my last 6 years as a member. I think that any family or individual considering joining a BJJ gym, would be missing out if they didn’t stop by Kama.”

“I wasn’t able to officially sign up due to personal reasons, but I had the chance to experience a class with Ryan and it was genuinely one of the best training sessions I’ve ever had. Even though it was just one class, I felt completely comfortable with the teaching style and the way the class was structured. Ryan created a welcoming and supportive environment that made it easy to learn and enjoy the experience, even as a newcomer. I walked away from that single class having learned a lot, and it left a lasting impression. Ryan has been nothing but kind, professional, and encouraging throughout the process. Once I’m able to sort out my situation, I absolutely plan to sign up. Highly recommend this place to anyone curious about Jiu-Jitsu or looking for a great community to train with.”

“My sons have been taking Jiu-jitsu lessons at Kama for over a year for self defense. My husband had done quite a bit of research on local studios about 5 years ago and was interested in Kama but the studio did not teach kids under the age of 5 at the time. We took a trial lesson as soon as we found out they did. It took about a month before my younger son broke out of his shell. I commend Coach Brandon and Coach Trenton for their effort and patience. All of the coaches, though they have different teaching styles, have truly improved my sons' confidence and given me some peace of mind. I have taken a few women's self defense classes and have found the techniques to be simple, but seemingly effective (I haven't had to test them in real life and hope to never have to). My older son competed, on his own accord, for the first time this weekend. I was feeling ashamed not knowing what I could do for him while all the other competitors were warming up and working on drills. I was touched when Coach Saito surprised us at the arena. We had no expectation that anybody from the studio would attend given that I only told them two days before the competition that my son was signed up, and because he was the only young student competing. Coach Saito made the early morning drive (doors opened at 7am) all the way to Dallas to support my son and worked with my son on a move right before one of the matches, which my son used to put his competitor in submission. The matches would not have gone as well as they had without Coach Saito's support and guidance. I didn't realize until watching the other competitors and their coaches, how other studios have a different focus even though they taught Jiu-jitsu, it was then that I was really grateful that Kama is the way it is. Thank you to all the coaches and training buddies for their words of support, high fives and pats on the back. For these and many other reasons, we are blessed to be a part of the Kama family and this community.”

“I’ve been training at Kama Jiu Jitsu for six years, and my son has been with them for about a year. We absolutely love it! The emphasis on self-defense, the structured curriculum, and the strong support for veterans and frontline workers truly set this place apart. They organize fantastic events that bring our community together, both on and off the mats. Every session feels like working out with an extended family. The instructors genuinely care about our progress and are excited to help us achieve our fitness and self-defense goals. In less than a year, I’ve seen a remarkable boost in my son’s confidence—he even refers to it as "ninja school," which brings a smile to my face! As a retired veteran, I appreciate the safe and welcoming environment. I’m proud to say that I’ve reached the purple belt level, and I truly feel like I’ve stumbled upon a hidden gem. My family and I couldn’t be happier with our experience at Kama Jiu Jitsu!”

“Started jujitsu couple months ago and it’s been an amazing experience and journey everyone is so friendly and supportive when asking for help.”
