Tania Gonzalez Casal
"My son goes there for Judo and Jiujitzu. We love the ambiance. The instructor teaches them to behave like family to each other. The quality of the martial arts is unbeatable. I’m very happy with them and my son loves it. He wouldn’t skip a class. Highly recommend."

"Sensei Abel and Sensei Oscar are top notch instructors that really care about their student's. Since I’ve started with them not only have I evolved as a martial artist I have evolved as a better leader, co worker, family member etc due to the respectful and family oriented atmosphere they instill in the dojo. I highly recommend anyone who’s interested in learning judo in a safe welcoming environment from 2 quality high caliber coaches come check us out."
Kevin Kleponis
"I dropped in for two judo classes the week after Christmas while I was in town visiting. The sensei was very welcoming and seemed happy to have a visitor. The class was 90 minutes and was well structured, either time for warm up, technique review, drill, and randori. I got a great workout and got some tips on improving some of my techniques. Adults and kids are mixed together in the class and I was impressed how well the sensei works was working with the kids in the class. He kept them focused and on task while also keeping the practice fun and entertaining. If I lived in the area, I would bring my kids for class. The training area has good mats that are comfortable to break fall and be thrown on, even for an older, less in shape body like mine. There is ample parking. I will definitely be coming back for classes when I’m in town for a visit."
Juan Corona
"Best ever judo academy super professional coach my son has been attending to this academy for two years and is national champion 2 years consecutive and I wonder those who has never been in our academy how can they share some false statements trying to minimize the great work of our coaches Abel Fernandez and Oscarito the best of the best and for those how doubt about their great job i dare you to look up for our school athletes results and not some mediocre people who trying to earn some points from google and im just a parent like all of you out there who look for the best for their children don let you be fouled by some random people who their only purpose in life is to damage the image of some professional coaches since they would never be able to make it by themselves 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻"
