Martial Arts Schools near Oregon City

“In an area where there is a rich and widespread martial arts culture such as Portland, many clubs will have different vibes and ways that they are run. When finding a fit can be difficult, I believe Enso is unique in how it has something for everyone and what it offers for training.

I was fortunate to find Enso when I did: They were extremely welcoming, the atmosphere is fantastic and positive with instruction that often feels more personal and thoughtfully considered rather than rote and routine. There is room for people at all skill levels, especially notable is the number of high level practitioners who continue to train alongside the beginners, personally coach and support those still finding their way.

The culture here is second to none, it quickly became more than just a place to train, but a place I am extremely thankful to be able to call home.“

“I would have never imagined that taekwondo would become such a huge part of our lives when we signed up. The staff at Irelands ATA Martial Arts are not only incredibly skilled martial artists themselves, but excellent leaders that each have something different to bring to the table. My son has grown so much, as a person, in the last couple of years, and I’m confident his taekwondo family has had a lot to do with it!“

“Eight years of experience with Krav and finally looking to come to a gym closer to me; really enjoyed my intro class! Looking forward to learning more here, highly recommend.“

“This is a great studio where the students truly learn techniques, respect, and have a good time. My son has built his confidence and patience and has even learned some Korean! I would highly recommend Ketzal Martial Arts and the instructor Ms. Eiseman.“

“Our twin boys wanted to join a martial arts class and we happened upon Ascent Martial Arts via one of their classmates. They have now been practicing a month and are so excited every time we go. The Mauro’s have made their experience amazing.“

“I was looking for something new to motivate me to move more and have fun doing it. I found it at GIRLS Gym. No matter your age or ability level you feel right at home. There is such a positive vibe there and I have so much fun!“

“My son went to him when he was five years old and he is now 23. Master Kim was amazing with our son and he even did a black belt by the time he was 16 years old. We had split custody and master. Kim was very flexible of doing every other week. My son I know because of master Kim is grown to be a very strong adult, and very well balanced.I now have grandkids and I’ve looked him up to send my grandkids to him now. He is somebody I have trusted his team with with my children and now I’m gonna trust him with my grandchildren. They are amazing. I looked through the photos and they’re the same teachers that it was 20 years ago, I’m so happy to find him again and the teachers .“

“Our kids love coming here and they are learning so much! I love the way the teaching is approached: gentle, kind and firm instructional. All of the teachers do a great job of balancing instruction with fun. I also love that the kids don’t need to remember every little thing on test day or be perfect. They earn their belt in class and then the test is their time to shine. I would recommend it for every child. I wish we could magically have better parking, but that can’t be helped :)“

“Highly recommend this dojo!If you are wondering about giving Aikido a try... just do it!“

“Nice place for kids to learn their attitudes and behaviors. Teachers are working very hard and sometimes funny my kids love to go there!“

“I’ve been going there to workout for 2 years. I’m currently a purple belt. The instructors are all really friendly helping out with Taekwondo for all ages, they have classes for little kids to middle aged people and beyond. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“My kids have done a few sports. But they have never been as excited and passionate about something like they are for Taekwando. My son who is super shy and introverted, cannot wait for taekwondo! We have seen his confidence grow and has become a great leader. They really care for your kids and make learning fun“

“Awesome place for kids. Master Cruz is very nice man and is great with children. Lots of different ages so there is no problem finding a group to fit in with.“

“My kids love Ki Aikido training with the senseis in Hillsboro Dojo. They are all volunteers but very dedicated to the students. It could be a little boring at first for the kids, but once they are into it, they love it. I also like the fact that they teach them about focusing, relaxing, cordinating mind and body and how to deal with difficulties in school and in life.You are treated like family here.“

“Master Carlos and the rest of the team are great. Our son loves going to Taekwondo twice a week. We also did a couple of private lessons on Sunday, which were absolutely incredible. The teacher went over everything with our son, from warm-up, counting in Korean, to kicking, punching and board breaking. Friendly and great group of people!“

“The instruction was good, and the people I rolled with were also great. It is a good community if you are looking for something long term.“

“We took our daughter here for a trial class today, and it was fantastic! Master Lee was great with the kids. He kept them engaged with fun activities while also implementing proper form and values. He made us all feel welcome, and we decided this was the right place for our daughter.“
