“Our daughter has been attending Gracie Barra Fullerton, and we’ve been really happy with the experience. The coaches are patient, encouraging, and great with kids. The classes are organized, and we’ve noticed a big improvement in her confidence and discipline.

It also feels good knowing she’s learning real self-defense in a safe and positive environment. She actually looks forward to going to class, which says a lot.

I would definitely recommend Gracie Barra Fullerton to any parent looking for a solid sport and a good self-defense foundation for their child.“

This school helps enable children to find self-confidence and discipline while having fun. For adults like me returning to the art, it's a nurturing place to rekindle a passion.“

“I have been going to TKS for nine years now, having competed for several years at nationals, medaling four times. The masters are very nice and easy to get to know, and helped me to reach where I am today. The overall environment of the place is also very fun, and I was able to learn new things and meet new people. Overall, would definitely recommend.“

“We’ve been training at this gym for about 9 months now, and it’s been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our family. I originally brought my kids in because they were shy and timid. From day one, the coaches and members were kind, respectful, and genuinely helpful. I'm in my 40's and decided to give it a shot.
Fast forward to now — my kids and I are more confident, social, and even competing. The growth hasn’t just been on the mats. We've taken the discipline, confidence, and work ethic that we learned into other areas of our lives. We're doing better at home, in school, at work, and in social settings.
The coaches are chill and laid back, but don’t let that fool you — they know how to push us to work hard and reach our goals. They created a culture that’s competitive yet supportive. It’s a safe, friendly environment, and that starts from the top with the leadership.
Grateful to be part of this team. I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to build confidence, discipline, and resilience.“

“Master Sohn and his instructors are absolutely wonderful. They are great with the students and keep them engaged. A typical group class will usually entail games to get the students giggling, solicited rounds of applause to acknowledge student's excellence/effort, and meticulous correction of form/behavior to cultivate discipline. My kid loves it and looks forward to his classes. His goal is black belt!“

“Coach Ben is incredible, and I'm beyond thrilled that we chose his gym for my son's first sport and jiu-jitsu training.

He's extremely patient and sees potential in every student. Coach Ben never gives up, understanding that it takes time for kids to grasp the concepts. His persistence and consistency make a huge difference in their progress. Additionally, the other coaches who assist are just as amazing as Coach Ben.

After a year of training, my son earned 2nd place in one of the Dream Competitions. The experience was unforgettable, and Coach Ben was there every step of the way, offering unwavering support. His passion and ability to handle my son's different emotions throughout the competition was impressive.

I highly recommend his gym to any parents looking to enroll their child in jiu-jitsu.“

“Really enjoy learning from Coach Ken & Coach Allison at Anaheim Krav Maga. Been going to the morning class for about 2 years. The class is very welcoming, and they have students of all ages and levels. I like that it's very practical and that there is an emphasis on both physical training and mental wellbeing. I walk away each class feeling like I've learned something new -- and that I have a better sense of what I need to practice in order to feel more confident defending myself. And it's fun!“

“Great location, knowledgeable and friendly instructors and the schedules works out well for my family; Offering many days to attend at different times. I recommend to anyone new to the sport!“

“I had three of our for kids in karate training Sebastian, Sofia and Sabrina and soon to be Steffan in BJJ. I earned my Black Belt after putting in about 5 years and I was ready to test for my Blue belt In BJJ before COVID hit. Vince and his skilled team of instructors work at your pace to make learning easy, challenging and fun. You do have to put the work in if you want to advance. They also have private instruction available as well.“

“My nephew had a hard time wanting to start the process.... But they worked with him.... Took the extra time to talk to him and relate. They are great at encouraging and cheering on everyone. I also like that the class has varying ages. It's a very welcoming place.“

“My grandson loves it, I just wished we could sit inside, specially when it's cold.“

“Thank you very much Master Antonio for your teachings for the kiddos, very good place, recommended 100% ?“

“Like many of us, I’ve had my own personal struggles and issues. 8 years ago, I met sensei Marcos Rubio. I walked into the dojo one day and tried out a lesson with him. One lesson was all it took for me to know this was something I wanted to be a part of and I made the decision to sign up.
It was my first lesson, and my first time ever learning a martial arts class. Something I’ve always wanted to do since I saw “Big Trouble in Little China” when I was 4 years old. My favorite movie of all time!
Sensei Marcos is unlike anyone I had ever met, and he’s taught me so much over the years, and I am proud to say that he’s my Master, but I love this man like he’s my dad.
It’s amazing to know you have a great dad in your life, let alone 2. I’ve earned my black belt under him and today, not only am I student of his, but I’m an instructor as well, and now I’m a second degree black belt. He’s helped me with so much that it’ll never be enough to say “thank you”.
He helped me become a better person. He made me a better version of myself. I am forever grateful to Master Rubio for that. Not only him, but all the instructors here as well. Not only because they’re great instructors, but they’re great people.
Come on by and try it out for yourself. Z Ultimate is an amazing place to be. You’ll be amazed how much your life can change by just making the decision to take that first step to try…“

“Great training session! Even though it was my first time visiting this school, Coach Dan took the time to work with me as well. People were very friendly. Thank you“

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience at USC Taekwondo Center in Fullerton! My 4-year-old has been attending for just a few weeks, and the improvement in his focus, discipline, and taekwondo skills is truly remarkable.

Master Cho is not only incredibly professional and skilled, but also has a wonderful way of connecting with the kids—motivating them with patience, encouragement, and structure. His passion for teaching is evident in every class. And the presence of Mrs. Song, his amazing wife, adds so much warmth and support during the lessons. Together, they create a positive and respectful learning environment that makes every student feel seen and valued.

We are so grateful to have found this place and highly recommend it to any parent looking to build confidence, focus, and martial arts skills in their child!“

“My 9 year old son and I dropped in on Monday all the way from AZ. Recommended by a friend. We both had a great Class. Coach Bill is top notch.“
