The guys who train here are serious about an education in combat, but know they can only excel through support of one another. Highly recommend.

This is my third TKD school (due to job changes and family moves) and is clearly my favorite. I would highly encourage more adults to take these classes. BTW, I have also watched some of the children's classes and I was impressed with the balance between strict discipline and keeping it fun for the kids.

I grew up doing Karate in the UK back in the '90s, before martial arts schools started pushing…read moreendless belt tests and charging families left and right. So when I came across Dante Rivera's BJJ Academy, it felt like a breath of fresh air. No sales pitch. No pressure. Just structure, discipline, and real mentorship. I had heard there were two main options locally--Silva's and Dante's. Silva's is known to be more "fun," but I wanted something with purpose. Our past experience with Master Park's Taekwondo was friendly, but confusing. Kids who could barely stay balanced were advancing through the ranks. At Dante's, that doesn't fly. I filled out the website contact form and got a quick response from Norma. When we showed up the next day, I expected the usual sit-down about pricing or discounts for paying cash (code for off the books), but that never came. Instead, Dante walked in, shook hands with every parent, and jumped right into class. What I saw was exactly what I hoped for: a balance of challenge, fun, and respect. My daughters (7 and 8) were pushed to think, focus, and move. I watched a girl struggle emotionally--Dante didn't coddle or ignore it. He guided her through, and she finished strong. That kind of moment tells you everything you need to know. There's discipline here, but it's not cold. It's real. Kids are expected to give their best. Parents were laughing as Dante cracked jokes--like threatening to lock kids in a closet or eat their feet. It's the kind of tough love that works, and the kids eat it up. After class, I asked the girls if they'd like to come back twice a week. Immediate yes. When I asked Norma what's next, she simply said: "Go home, talk about it as a family." No pitch, no hard sell. They didn't need to--the program speaks for itself. While we were there, I saw a dad bring his son over to speak with Dante about a tough class he had. Dante bent down, listened, and told the boy, "You can always come talk to me." That kind of care? You can't fake it. If you're looking for a place where your child will be challenged, supported, and treated like a real student--not just a customer--Dante's is it. We're proud to be part of this academy.
