Martial Arts

It is a good place to learn how to fight

My daughter has going here for over a year now and we absolutely love it! Great instructors, convenient hours, and you can't beat the price. They do not focus on making money but truly teaching their students how to properly perform the various moves. Recommend to anyone young or old!!!!!

Cool cool

Fabiano is a great trainer and has helped me prep for my last four figure competitions. He has a very wide base of knowledge and can definitely help you reach your fitness goals, no matter what level!

Great clothing and styles available!

I have been going to USSD since I was seven. This organization has helped me build as a person and now I know that I can defend myself. This has definitely been my favorite extra curricular activity by a huge margin. - Nick, Brown Belt 1st Degree

Alvarez-Sensei's dojo is terrific. But the real gem is Jim Alvarez himself. He is wonderfully knowledgeable, precise in his techniques, an excellent teacher, has a comprehensive understanding of the art, and he is personally one of the most generous human beings I have met. My only regret is that I can't train with him more often. If you have not tried Aikido and this dojo is convenient to you I highly recommend going. If you have trained Aikido and you have the opportunity to train with Jim and his students don't miss it.

We have been with this school for last 4 years and we are extremely content with our daughters progress and the efficiency of the school. Both Mr and Mrs B strive for every students success and encourage them every step of the way. This school not only teaches self-defense but also provides lessons on self- discipline, respect, perseverance and how to be a good citizen.

Great place with great martial arts.

The best karate training in the central area of California. Sensei Ueoka brings decades of experience and mastery of karate with a unique innovative teaching style. His students are known for their strong technique and fighting spirit.

I came across Elite Self Defense Academy on facebook, I am a lifelong martial artist and I watched the videos on their facebook page with horror. The techniques being shown are extremely dangerous to the person applying them and are completely ineffective in live combat. DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL.

I've been training at Darcio Lira for five years and it is an amazing experience filled with dedication and determination.

When I first took my child to class we loved all the families that were there! It was a great supportive family enviroment. All the instructors are nationally ranked black belts and seem to be very knowledgable in teaching children and with martial arts. I had gotten recommendations from friends to go try this studio and I can see why. IT is the best martial art studio in the area. My kids love it. My husband loves that my children are nationally ranked as welll and that they do lots of tournaments. The fees are very reasonable and there are no contracts . This is the BEST martial art studio for your kids !!!
