“Cannot recommend this place enough. Very encouraging atmosphere and very patient instruction from kids to adults.“

“Sensei Brown is FANTASTIC with our 3 kids (9, 11, 13). His interaction with all of the kids is incredible to see. The kids respect him and love coming to Martial Arts 3-4 time per week. He gives great feedback for improvement and gives incredible energy to their success. They know they have EARNED their success when they test.

We LOVE having our kids at Brown Institute and will continue to have them here for the foreseeable future.“

“Coach Chris is the best. He’s patient when he needs to be, stern when it’s called for, and holds the kids accountable. And all the while, the kids are having fun. He’s an excellent teacher and I have watched my son blossom in his class. The assistants are great as well! So much positive energy.“

“If I could give this place 6 stars I would. The impact Master Young and Nancy have had on my life is truly great. Especially when looking back at the mental and emotional lessons I learned in their class I can see that what they teach transcends fighting skills and moves into life long lessons. They have taught me disciple, patience, and that not winning doesn’t mean losing, but quitting does. I attended for roughly nine years and earned my second degree black belt before ending my journey, and it was hard in the moment, but I am so grateful Master Young, Nancy, and this school.“

“TTF is the best thing that I could have ever have done for my daughter. The confidence, her thinking, and her attitude, for life and achievement has changes so much. The environment is always positive. The discipline, respect & the talent that is shared to these students is remarkable. TTF not only has become family to us but we are super grateful for ALL of the staff. Each one ☝ go above and beyond for the kids. Best martial arts studio around!!!“

and value is unmatched. My family couldn't recommend enough. Steve(owner) really cares about the kids.“

“Ever since I've started my confidence has shot up and gave me the motivation to pursue other things on the outside too! Everyone is friendly and the staff is very knowledgeable“

“I have been attending Tama BJJ classes for several months. The instructors are wonderful and the facility is great. The classes are very informative and have been crucial in growing my BJJ skillset. The classes provide hands-on learning, drills, and live application which are all essential to any BJJ journey.“

“Training at Gi Yu Dojo is distinctly different than any other dojo or school that I have experienced.

Sukh Sandhu Sensei teaches as many classes as he can to set high standards. This includes the C.O.R.D.S. Program for children.
