I’ve had the pleasure to take private lessons with Nicasio Alonso for over a year. I’m a senior and have taken training lessons for those in my age group and have enjoyed as well as learned quite a bit. It’s never too late to learn and improve. Fortunately my teacher, in my opinion is exceptional. He’s patient and caring to which I’m very grateful. Really nice group of people of all ages.
I call Bay Ridge a home and a family. They taught me so much more than just self defense. Discipline and self control is what they are about. The Sensei are all just amazing! Training with Prof nic and Prof mike along with Sensei Danny and all the others I am proud to have been a part of Bay Ridge Dojo.
Preserving the art while realistically approaching self defense... for decades!
