Kanjizai Academy of Jiu-Jitsu

"Our family has been going to Kanjizai for a while now. We really enjoy it and our kids get a lot out of it. Sensei Kevin is so great with them. He is just firm enough to keep class on track but also exhibits a high degree of patience with them. I love to watch him teach a class and I really value the diversity that is offered here. I highly recommend checking it out!"

"My son has been attending for a year, he has improved in many ways, showed more confidence, Improved his grades at school and never gets in trouble . He’s is 14th going to 15 and is the best decision I made for an after school program. The teachers and the community are extremely supportive and talented."

"My son has been doing Jiu-Jitsu here for over a year. In that time I have watched his confidence and technique improve. He loves going to Jiu-Jitsu every single week! A major reason we picked this academy is because of Sensei Kevin is a great teacher. He is funny, patient, and attentive. Not all instructors can work with kids, but Kevin is amazing!"

"I was looking for a place with a children's self-defense program and found Kanjizai. After starting my son in Little Ninjas, I read more about the Combatives philosophy and decided I liked the approach. As a result, I also signed up for classes at Kanjizai. My son and I now have more than a year of classes/training in jiu jitsu, and we both still very much enjoy the activity and the challenge of learning new techniques. My younger son wanted to participate, as well, so he is also now taking classes. It is quite personally rewarding to share this experience with them. I can't speak highly enough about the welcoming environment that Kevin and Jimmy create in the dojo. It is collegial and fun, yet they are both serious and professional about teaching jiu jitsu. As a result, I have made some good friends at Kanjizai, and I look forward to attending classes/training sessions on a weekly basis. An additional side benefit is that I no longer need to hit the gym, as the jiu jitsu is a great workout. Staying fit while learning a useful set of skills has eliminated the boredom from my exercise routine."
