I can’t say enough great things about this Judo dojo. The coaching here is truly exceptional—every instructor is knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in each student’s growth. They don’t just teach technique; they teach discipline, respect, and life skills that carry far beyond the mat.
What really sets this place apart is the family atmosphere. Everyone is welcoming, supportive, and encouraging, creating a strong sense of community that makes you feel like you belong from day one. Whether you’re training for competition, self-defense, or personal development, this dojo offers an environment where students of all ages can thrive.

Our kids absolutely love this club. The coaches are so good wirh the kids and they are not only learning but really look up to them as mentors. The class size is perfect, and the community atmosphere is wonderful. Our kids like it so much they ask me how many days until the next class. I am so glad we found this club for them.

My daughter trained with Coach Hrbek for over a year at the dojo, I would love to say hands down one of the best coaches ever. He is great with kids and his teaching methods are really good, he makes sure kids understand and teaches lots of great techniques. When we relocated to Dallas, we put her in another dojo, but she was invisible among 100 other kids, but at Universal she got her attention and training. Also, she got to train with the national and Olympic level athletes. I miss the dojo and coach Hrbek.
