This is the place to be, Sensei Gary Takemoto and all of the other Blackbelts here bring so much knowledge and hands on training, all in a respectful and professional environment. They are able to handle Judokas at all different skill levels at every practice due to the volume of Blackbelts to learn from. You'll get personalized attention so you can develop your skills at a pace that works for you. All this while still providing a close team / family environment. I can't wait until my son is old enough to join the team as well.

Harbor Judo is an excellent Dojo for the serious Judoka. Sensei Gary Takemoto is the longest active Head Sensei in the United States. He has been the Head Sensei of Harbor Judo Dojo since 1984! This Dojo is "Old School Japanese Judo". Whether you want to be a Top Player in Judo Competition or you want to learn to fun, this Dojo in my opinion is the Best in Southern California.
