Martial Arts Schools near Walnut

“This is the best Jiu Jitsu class because they truly focus on teaching. I've tried other places where it's mostly about fun. I don't want to spend money, especially time, driving and waiting for my kid for a Jiu Jitsu class just for fun. But here, after just one free class, I didn't hesitate to sign up for a year. They really teach things even from the first class. I really like the coaches here, especially Mr. Albert. He is kind yet strict, maintaining full control to ensure that kids are not just playing around but learning properly. I appreciate the balance of discipline and kindness. I am very thankful to have found this place and highly recommend this business!“

Everyone supports and motivates each other and the instructors are incredible. Excited to see her continued development!“

“All the Sensais and coaches in RDK San Dimas are passionate on Karate, and wholeheartedly help every of their students to have successful Karate training journey. They are patient with students by motivating them to through different ways, and more so they make each karate class full of fun and excitement. Other than the regular karate classes, they devote resource and energy on other fun-filled activities outside of the regular class time. I have put my son in their dojo for over 3 years and it's been an amazing journey so far. I would choose this dojo again if I were to pick again, despite the long commute.“

“Been training here for about a year. They teach traditional Kodokan Judo which includes throws, sweeps and grappling (ne-waza). Senseis are friendly, patient and encouraging. 2 classes a week for both kids and adults. Great place to learn and build connections with other judokas.“

“We first were introduced to this dojang because they run the Tiny Dragons program through the city of Placentia. It's been 3 months now and my 4-year-old still loves coming! Master Seguel is so kind, has so much patience with the little ones and makes it really fun. My 6-year-old joined the class for the bigger kids and has been really enjoying it and learning a lot. They've both been learning so much self-control and discipline through the taekwondo practices. Master Seguel also puts a big emphasis on respect and tries to impart it on the students in each class. I'm really happy to have found this studio. Originally, we really didn't have much interest in having the kids do martial arts, but now that we've been coming here, we are quite invested because of how much we like it. I'd recommend Thrive7 to anyone who is interested in trying it out.“

“The studio is NOT glamorous but you can see and feel the dedication of the students from there. Younger students are encouraged to try their best and excell in all faucets of their life. Adults in the classes attend to learn and improve skills, all egos are checked at the door. The parking lot does leave alot to be desired. Lines can't be seen very easily and some other patrons of the little shopping strip make up their own parking rules...“

“I cannot say enough about Dan, the head instructor. Exceptional knowledge both of the game itself, and strategy. My son, is a competition fighter and he was greatly impacted in a positive way in the instruction he received. Highest recommendation.“

“I am a student at rdk and the experience each time i’m there for a lesson is great. Every sensei teaches very explicit with instructions.“

“Master Ryu is great with kids and makes taekwondo fun! My son has been learning about discipline and coordination while having fun with his friends!“

“We have been taking our 2 kids (4&7) to Red Dragon Karate in La Verne for a year and a half now and have nothing but good things to say about this place: This place doesn’t only teach them techniques, it goes beyond that; since my kids started training here, we’ve noticed a significant improvement in multiple aspects: discipline, focus, self-confidence, strength, team work, school performance and others. The staff is talented, very professional, super nice and they are great with kids. They know how to win them over and encourage them and make them want to come back every time. I would highly recommend this place. I can confidently say that it has more to offer compared to other karate places.“

“Great martial art gym! They offer muay thai, boxing and jiu-jitsu classes here. The head coach it a former champion with multiple belts. As well as some of the coaches there, so u know they really know what they're teaching. If u seriously want to be a fighter or even just for exercise as they offer fitness classes and strenght and conditioning classes as well. Great fit for anyone and everyone there“

I am extremely impressed with their program.They offer numerous classes throughout the week which is great for families with busy schedules that require flexibility. Classes have a very good student to instructor/assistant ratio and all classes are infused with a lot of fun exercises and games that keep the students fully engaged.The instructors are all highly skilled and knowledgeable, and they truly care about their students. They create a fun and safe environment for learning. Not only do the instructors teach the physical techniques of taekwondo, but they also emphasize the importance of discipline, respect, and perseverance. My kids have shown significant improvement in their focus, confidence, and overall physical fitness since starting this program.I highly recommend All Star TaeKwonDo to any parents looking to enroll their kids in an excellent martial arts program that promotes both physical and mental growth.“
