His passion for the art is evident, and he creates a welcoming and supportive environment for students of all levels. Whether you’re new to judo or an experienced competitor, this dojo offers excellent instruction and a great community. The training is technical, well-structured, and always engaging. I highly recommend Tri-Valley Judo & Jiu-Jitsu to anyone looking for quality martial arts training in Pleasanton!”
“My kids have been attending Sensei Kevin's Tri-Valley Judo Club for almost a year and a half. The coaches and families are incredibly friendly, and the coaches are passionate about training the kids. My children has grown to love judo more than ever. I really appreciate how the coaches encourage the kids to compete in tournaments, and Sensei Kevin leads by example, always participating in competitions himself. It’s great to see such a dedicated and inspiring environment for the kids!”
“This is an amazing community! I love going here because every time I take my kids to judo practice, I (as an adult) take away a piece of wisdom about life. Sensei Kevin, Sensei Tracy, and Sensei Jared are teaching these kids amazing skills and principles, both on the mat and off the mat. They treat every member like family and build a community that demonstrates hard work, good values, and friendship. Thank you to everyone! We appreciate you more than you know.”
“I can’t recommend Tri-Valley Judo & Jiu Jiu enough!! Coming back to a Judo as an adult after decades off, I was so impressed by how welcomed and fully supported all ages and skill levels are. The senseis are incredibly knowledgeable and have an innate sense of which teaching methods to use to support varying levels of experience. In addition to great coaching skills, every single sensei is abundantly kind and contributes to a very positive community of growth and acceptance. If you’re looking for a local dojo, this is the ONE!”
