"We love the programs for all family members, ages 3 through 100. The kids programs include a number of life lessons. The self-defense is practical, especially the Women's Empowered Program. The instructors are full of kindness and support."
Anna Margolin
"My son has been training at East West Richboro for over a decade, and I can confidently say it’s been one of the best decisions we’ve made for him. The dojo’s exceptional kindness, leadership, and teaching skills have created an environment where he has thrived both as a martial artist and as a person. The instructors are truly outstanding. Their patience and ability to connect with students of all ages shine through in every class. They don’t just teach karate techniques—they instill discipline, respect, and confidence that carry over into everyday life. I wholeheartedly recommend East West to any parent looking for a place where their child can grow physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s more than a dojo—it’s a community."

Highly reccomend for anyone looking to learn Gracie/Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Experienced or not experienced, it doesnt matter. They break it down so anyone can learn at a good safe pace."
