“I attended the free self-defense class at Crunch Gym in Eastlake Chula Vista. It was such a blessing for me to attend this workshop. I feel so encouraged and empowered by what I learned in this session 10/10!!!“

“It’s only been a week, but we already love it. We signed up our 3 year old and he was shy the first day but the Coaches are very kind and have lots of patience for the little ones. Excited to continue his jiu jitsu experience.“

“Great school for those trying to learn how to fight or defend themselves, prices are reasonable which is great based on how everything has gotten so expensive this days. The plus side also there seems to be enough women training as well for the girls who are thinking of trying it out I know how important that is for women to know they won't be the only girl“

“Excellent training academy for martial arts. Grand Master Kim focuses on respect, hard work, and excellence, yet is a very approachable and kind instructor. The perfect balance between being strict yet very caring. The students learn so much in class, and get an amazing workout. Plus I believe the lessons help them excel at school and in life. Highly recommend.“

“Have been attending AKA San Diego for about 7 months. I had a good experience starting off as they are very beginner friendly. Coach T provides excellent coaching, and the environment at AKA is great.“

“Absolutely love this dojo! Sensi Roland is one of the kindest and easiest people to approach and talk to. The pricing is incredibly adorable. Sarah is easy to work with and exceptionally kind as well. My son has been a member for some time now and absolutely loves every lesson. He has such a boost in confidence and his ability is impressive. I highly recommend this place to anyone. Be it self defense....sport....or fitness. You'll find it here!“

“We can’t say enough good things about Legendary Martial Arts. The owner and team are doing an incredible job building a strong community while running a truly top-notch Taekwondo program led by an incredible team.

We’ve been attending classes for just over a month, and it has already become a second home for our six-year-old son. The instructors are patient, encouraging, and structured, and they genuinely care about each child’s confidence, discipline, and growth.

If you haven’t tried it yet, I highly recommend coming in to take your first class for free — you’ll quickly see why this place stands out.“

“Being going here for over a year now. I am an Orange belt as of the beginning of November 2013.

Grandmaster Joe has helped me with my Weight problem and I have lost around 90 lbs since the beginning of 2013.

The instruction of the Martial art is top quality. If you come and see you will see how this Martial Art is a lot different and more advanced as the others.

Edit: I have been going to this school for over 4 years now. I am now a Brown belt and I am loving this Martial Art. It just keeps getting better!“

“I had the opportunity to try out Pulahan Derobio Eskrima and had a great experience. The environment was welcoming, the instruction was knowledgeable, and you can tell there’s a strong emphasis on both skill development and respect for the art.

I really appreciated the chance to train and get a feel for Filipino Martial Arts, especially the focus on practical application and discipline. Unfortunately, due to some unexpected expenses and current priorities, I’m not able to continue training at the moment.

That said, I’m grateful for the experience and definitely plan to return in the future when the timing is right. Highly recommend checking them out if you’re interested in FMA.“
