Martial Arts Schools in Cape Coral

“Kodokan Judo Cape Coral has been such a great experience for our family. My son genuinely loves attending classes, and that says a lot. The instructors are fantastic—skilled, professional, and great with kids. They know how to challenge students while also building confidence and discipline. I also appreciate how many class options they offer during the week, making it easy to stay consistent. This is more than just martial arts training—it teaches respect, self-defense, focus, and perseverance. We are very grateful to be part of this community.“

“I was on my phone looking up about Aikido and I was surprised that there was a school in Cape Coral, just an hour from home. I was curious and called the phone number on the page. (239-677-4331) This was my best decision that same day to talk and to visit Sensei Joe. The Aikido’ s mentality he talks about feels well aligned with the lessons that I receive from my inner teachers. I seek enlightenment. The place is clean and organized and that makes me happy. Sometimes there are children around. They're so much fun and it's a blessing to watch them while they train. The lessons are interesting. Sensei Joe is a very detailed teacher who closely follows the progress of his students. He has so much energy! And he's also creative. You'll never be bored at the dojo. Discipline, perseverance, consistency, empathy, and patience are just some of the qualities that we can develop by practicing Yoshinkan Aikido and that inspires me to continue advancing on this journey. I feel safe while learning the techniques and I am always excited to come back for more training. I am grateful that Sensei Joe and Yoshinkan Aikido are now a part of my life.“

“My son has only been attending for about six weeks, but we have already had a great experience. The instructors are welcoming, patient, and encouraging with the students. From the very beginning, they made Jace feel comfortable and supported. I am excited to continue watching Jace learn and grow through martial arts and would highly recommend this program to other families.“

“Master Larry having before school care for the 2025-2026 school year has been such a blessing! My child was chronically late last year due to the insanely long parent drop off line at Cape Elementary, coming from 3 directions. This year? THE ONLY CHILD IN HER CLASS TO HAVE PERFECT ATTENDANCE!!!!!!!

My child also had a birthday party at BBT last summer, one of the best parties ever! She did cut her cake with a sword, it was awesome!

Master Larry is an angel & a blessing!“

“Highly, highly, highly recommend Kobayashi Dojo! Discipline, stamina, movement, focus, strength, balance, self-defense- these are all great principles of an active, focused upbringing as well as for adults. Kobayashi Dojo instills wonderful values. It’s been great for our family ??“
