Martial Arts Schools near Pomona

“The best place for martial arts training.
Thanks Sensei Yuri you're amazing“

“This is a terrific school. The knowledgeable instructors create a positive, motivating environment for students to learn Taekwondo and develop their skills. They emphasize careful listening, respect, hard work, and humility. We value the way they relate to kids using compassion, humor, and age-appropriate methods yet consistently call on them to focus and follow rules.“

“Bill Stevens is a great Karate coach for kids. Our kid loved his class, and insisted to come twice a week despite we sometimes would have a schedule conflict. Bill, in my opinion, invest a lot of time to make his class fun and educative. It’s not just a karate class, but a life lesson to teach the kids discipline while keeping them entertained.

Thank you Sensei!“

“We love this place and our son feels so safe. They are so understanding of him and make accommodations when needed. I tell everyone about them and how they meet him at his level. It was hard finding someone who would help especially with his Autism.“

“Love it here! The instructors are awesome, know what they are doing, and totally supportive. It's a family atmosphere. I started my daughter and then a few months later I joined. Best decision ever.“

“Renzo Gracie Rockland Jiu-Jitsu is truly an exceptional academy. The professors are absolutely amazing and have an incredible attention to detail. They consistently go above and beyond to make sure every student not only understands the techniques being taught, but is also applying them correctly during class. While students are rolling, the professors are constantly coaching, reminding them of strategies, and helping them sharpen their skills in real time.

What truly sets this place apart is how nurturing and genuinely caring the instructors are, especially with the kids. They continuously push them to grow, improve, and build confidence each day in such a positive and encouraging environment. Our boys have been treated like family since the moment they started, and that means everything to us.

My husband and I were so inspired that we even decided to start taking classes ourselves, and I’ve already learned so much after just one class. The atmosphere is welcoming, motivating, and filled with passion for the art of jiu-jitsu. I cannot recommend Renzo Gracie Rockland highly enough for anyone looking for top-tier instruction, a supportive community, and an amazing experience for both kids and adults.“

“I have been training at this gym for two months and feel my conditioning has been improving drastically. You get both a cardio workout and at the same time learn self defense. Highly recommend. Ricky the owner is a great guy and made me feel welcomed as soon as I stepped foot in the gym.“

“Highly recommend this place for all parents who want their children to gain self confidence, discipline overall respect for others…

Love it….“

“NY United BJJ has truly changed my life. I decided to join a class on a whim, and almost two years later it’s become a foundation of my life. Besides what I’ve gained physically, it’s changed my outlook on life, inspiring me to value discipline, commitment and to believe in myself.

Khyl is an amazing instructor. He’s tough and will push you to your limit—no games or excuses here. But he truly cares, so it’s a rare combination of motivation without the harshness.

The team is beyond wonderful . I had no athletic experience at all, and still everyone was so welcoming and willing to help me learn. There’s a sense of deep humility and a pure desire to share with others, regardless of belt level.

I truly have no words to describe what this school has done for me. If you want authenticity, focus and pure drive—this is where it’s at.“

“Tiger Schulman’s in Ramsey is the best, top notch Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing classes for kids!! We have both our kids (ages 9 and 5) enrolled for over 2 years and we have nothing but great things to say!! Ryan and Andrew are both amazing instructors and Sensei Rapoport runs a great program. Highly highly recommend!!“

“I (and my son (7 years old) have been training at 5150 for more than a year. This is a truly amazing place and I highly recommend it to anyone. For years, I tried a number of places to continue learning MMA; however, it never worked until I found Professor O'Keeffe. He is caring, thoughtful, skillful, fun, and tough all at the same time, which is a rare combination. He has a contagious love for jiu-jitsu and the innate ability to teach. My son also loves going to train. He has learning valuable skills (on and off the mat), has gained confidence and has fun. Professor Shapiro not only teaches valuable skills but also makes the classes fun and engaging. All and all, my family feels very lucky we found 5150 and recommended it to everyone.“

“Great classes. Master Joe is good with the kids... Perfect place for kids to learn discipline.“

“I have been involved in the martial arts for 30 years and Mr. Clifford is one of the best teachers I have had the pleasure to learn from. His depth of martial arts knowledge and his teaching methodology are incredible. Highly recommended!“

“There is a very focused and practical atmosphere that pervades the training. Very good experience.“

“Success Martial Arts is a great activity and environment for children. The instructors are very patient and work well with the children. It offers a tremendous confidence and morale booster while also providing structure outside of the home and school environment; that is constructive and healthy.“

“In this program my child has developed motor skills such as balance, coordination, agility and above all Discipline that have led him to be champion number ? 1 in multiple tournaments“

“Alan is a excellent professor. He taught me how to safely detain students with his art. He made my entry into brazil jiu jitsu easy. Thanks Alan.“

“Sir Charles actually teaches the sport to his students, young and old! His pricing is very reasonable!“

“A Truly Exceptional Karate School — For Both Kids and Adults

Mac Albus Shukokai Karate is everything you could hope for in a martial arts school and more. They are absolutely incredible with both kids and adults. Every single black belt in the school is willing to share their knowledge, support newer students, and help lower belts develop real skill and confidence. You can feel that each instructor carries forward the experience, discipline, and spirit passed down by Shihan Mac Albus himself.

Their love and dedication to the karate community that Shihan Mac has built is on display every single day.

As an adult returning to the sport after nearly 30 years, I’ll admit—I was intimidated walking into an adult class full of black belts. But that feeling disappeared after my very first class. The black belts were welcoming, patient, incredibly knowledgeable, and knew exactly how to mentor someone restarting their martial arts journey. It was the perfect environment to grow without feeling judged.

I’ve also seen this same level of care in how my son has been treated. In the two years he’s been attending, his confidence and skills have grown tremendously. The school doesn’t just teach karate—they teach leadership. Through their Jr. Instructor program, opportunities to demonstrate techniques early on, and a culture where higher belts are encouraged to help lower belts, the kids learn responsibility, humility, and how to support others.

This is more than a dojo. It’s a family, a community, and a place where students of all ages can thrive. Mac Albus Shukokai Karate is simply outstanding, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.“

“We as members are united in mutual friendship. Sensei Arny is the best. A combination of a great taekwondo teacher, a spiritual leader, a sensitive, and very funny person. My two sons really developed as athletes and as good people at the workout place. And they really enjoyed coming there multiple times each week.“

“My son has been going to J Y Moon Taekwondo and he did their afterschool in summer camp although he’s outgrown after school in summer camp. He really had a good time and formed a good community there. Grand Master is an excellent instructor and a good community overall and they get good exercise and lessons.“
