I wanted to share about an experience we had with Oom Yung Doe . My son wanted to start martial…read morearts, so my husband searched through the vendors at his homeschool charter and found Oom Yung Doe in Temecula. When I reached out via their scheduling system to set up a free trial, I was immediately called back and I spoke to Ben the owner. He set up a date and time for my son to visit and try a class that evening. Ben met with all of us first to discuss my son's goals and to explain a little bit about their school and then my son joined the teen class right after. My son loved it and we decided to have him attend classes there. They offer teen classes every evening and morning classes for everyone as well as Saturday morning classes. Ben and his wife, Joy own Oom Yung Doe and are some of the most kind and welcoming people I have met! My son started attending 2.5 months ago and I will tell you, he loves it, but more importantly, his grades have come up and he is doing amazing scholastically! My son took the Star360 (a statewide test) last school year in May and was in the red zone (concerning zone-he has been for most of his school career) and just this week, he is in the blue zone (the zone they want all students to be in). Images attached. We are shocked and so excited for him! We can't wait to watch him grow and change due to the training he is getting at Oom Yung Doe! If you have a child who is struggling with school, please reach out to Ben at Oom Yung Doe and have your child attend a session or two. I attached the website link below. I promise you won't be disappointed and if you attend for a few months, you may see their grades increase like we have! https://meet.oomyungdoe.com/free-consultation-ca

Our Girl Scout troop had the opportunity to attend a class at Final Strike Martial Arts in…read moreMurrieta, and we had such an amazing experience! From the very beginning, the staff was welcoming, patient, and absolutely wonderful with all of our girls. They put together a two-hour class that was incredibly well organized and structured while still keeping the girls engaged and having fun the entire time. They talked with them about anti-bullying, personal safety, confidence, awareness, and different ways they can protect themselves if they ever feel unsafe. The girls also learned basic martial arts skills, including how to properly kick and strike, and one of their favorite parts was getting the chance to break boards! I was so impressed with how much they were able to teach the girls while making everything age-appropriate, encouraging, and fun. Every girl walked away feeling proud of herself and more confident. We are definitely interested in checking out more of what Final Strike Martial Arts has to offer and would highly recommend them to any family looking for a martial arts program for their child. Thank you so much for giving our troop such a memorable experience!

This place is like the gym Average Joe's in the movie Dodge Ball (except not the good guys, just…read morethe average part). They have some great instructors, but unfortunately the members create an atmosphere of insecurity and fear. If you show up with any experience, confidence, or heaven forbid are good looking, in shape, and not religious, then you will be hated like you're a Globo Gym member. Not only will they hate you, they will begin to spread lies and rumors about you and give you dirty glances. We witnessed them allow a member to continuously cause trouble, disobey the rules of the mat, and disrespect other members of the gym and the instructors and manager never did anything until after 9 months of not paying his dues they finally kicked him out. This guy was over 6' tall, 270 pounds, tattoos on his face... he was intimidating. He was also a very poor sport, no sportsmanship and no regard for etiquette. He threw tantrums when he didn't get submissions in jiu jitsu, he was always challenging the upper ranked belts to prove himself, he tried to start physical altercations with professional fighters at fight night, he tried to start fights with my husband threatening him through text, and they even allowed this member's young son to accost little girls in jiu jitsu, making creepy comments to them, and bullying other members of all ages, much like his father. There is a heavy Christian influence pervading the place, which seems to encourage the negative behavior. They forgive the bully over and over which punishes the victims. That member was just one example of the culture at large. Be aware of the groups of women who are there every day who act like they own the place and bully around doing what they want without consequences, acting like their membership doesn't cost the same as yours. If you want to go back to high school but pay for it, then this is your spot.

A good friend of mine had his son enrolled with Julio at Team Overtime for a couple years and he…read moreshared some videos of his boy on the bags and I was like "Dude, I want my son to do that"... so I enrolled him last year.  We started off with one-on-ones with Julio to gain the fundamentals, and then moved him into classes.  Julio and Team Overtime have been just fantastic in helping my son both mentally and physically.  I've had him enrolled little league, flag football, Tai Kwon Do and basketball.  For most of these sports, he had a difficult time accepting instructions from coaches... not a behavioral issue, it was a "lack of interest" issue. Julio picked up on this and incorporated this into the weekly trainings.  It was absolute magic to see my son start to appreciate the sport of Boxing and see his progress; to be motivated from this progress and want to continue.  Not to mention, he is learning so much about self defense, co-ordination and sportsmanship.  Today he is enrolled in both Boxing and Kick Boxing classes with Team Overtime. So, to underscore how awesome Julio is, I myself enrolled in on-on-ones with Julio to learn the fundamentals so I can feel comfortable when I shift into the adult boxing classes.  I'm currently active with these one-on-ones and I have to say...  I'm LOVING IT.  It's good for health, weight and mental stability.   I highly recommend you take a serious look at Team Overtime.   Julio and the team are the absolute best.  I feel I've gained a family here.  One that is standing on solid ground with a common sport that has only added POSITIVE things in this family's lives.

Definitely a place I wouldn't recommend if you want your children to get in good trainings and to…read morebe treated with respect! We started bringing our son here and started having incidents a few months in. I finally got with one of the coaches in a professional way and asked for my child not to be paired up with a specific child due to that child throwing constant tantrums from the beginning of the class to the ending wasting my child's training time. Coach Mason told both me and my husband that child was Autistic but that he would start pairing up our son with other kids so we wouldn't have any more issues and that all coaches would be told about our preference as well. Being a mother myself I completely understand children with special needs and not once did my husband or myself make fun of the child as it's being told by the owner or by the child's parents because if that was the case why didn't anyone come to us like grown adults to discuss it? Julio the owner was nowhere to be seen barely started coming around until this last month so that just shows how involved with his business he is. Yesterday was our last straw! We got up mid training due to an emergency because just like the rest of the parents that have left mid training we ourselves have emergencies too Julio follows myself, my husband and my child all the way outside. He proceeds to tell my husband he wants to talk to him my husband keeps walking doesn't say not one word and Julio proceeds to disrespect him in front of our child asking him if he's a little girl or a man. There was another parent outside who I'm sure heard the whole thing but if needed I can provide video I recorded to show who's really lying about what was told outside. Julio wants to lie and say he didn't say none of this when in fact he did and I can see this is something he does because theirs multiple reviews who state he's rude and I can confirm he in fact is! From the moment this issue was first brought to his general managers attention it was his responsibility to bring it to Julio's attention so he can come talk to us and resolve the issue. Stating he had multiple complains about my husband is so weird to me because not once was my husband approached by ANYONE to discuss his "bad behavior." We even asked the GM Mason if we can end our membership and were told that wasn't possible so if my husbands behavior was so bad like Julio is saying why didn't they let us go when we first asked? Completely shows Julio is lying. Being the second set of parents to request for their child not to be paired up with the same child shows theirs an issue that needs to be fixed! Instead of following your customers outside disrespecting them you should use fix the problems you have going on inside. So glad he did us a favor and cancelled our membership. The fabricated lies that are being said by a grown "man" clearly shows his character.

Training with Sifu-Don and the SoCal Wing Chun Academy has been a life-changing experience for my…read moreson and I. My wife and I want our kids to be involved in some type of sport or physical activity outside of daily school. My son had been a dedicated club soccer player for a few yrs but COVID put a damper on that so we were looking for something different he might like. I, personally, had always been a Bruce Lee fan and loved the art of Wing Chun but had never taken part in it. My son was 12 yrs old and had only done a little wrestling as far as self defense so I signed us up for a free week of classes. Usually a 12 yr old would be in the Youth classes but my son was allowed to train alongside me (46 yrs) in the adult classes with grown men and women. As soon as our first class was over he said, "Man, I can't wait to do this again!' He and I were hooked. We continued on for an entire yr together where we trained and fought alongside each other. I had no idea the impact it would have on him to see me (his own father) take my own ups n downs throughout the process of learning. He witnessed me get humbled many times during trainings (hard for a father to do/admit) but I knew I wanted him to see that I was willing to let him see me fail so he could also see me continue on and not give up. It took incredible discipline and dedication for us both but our bond and relationship as father and son took immense strides forward and watched my 12 yr old boy become an artist of Wing Chun during that time. He developed a love of the craft and discipline that Sifu-Don Presto and the many other coaches instilled in him along the way: Samba, Mike, Gabe, Charles, Jamere, Kevin, others. All great men with great character that held my son accountable but also gave him great praise and encouragement when earned. This was the longest my son and I had done anything together, how incredibly rewarding as a father. When I needed to take a break during summer, Sifu-Don offered my son a position as a coach for his Youth classes on Mon-Tues-Wed evenings. He was honored at the opportunity and jumped right in. Working with both, adults and young children (ages 6-12 yrs), men, women, girls, boys, has taught him so much as a young man and character development. Sifu-Don Presto and the staff of coaches at SoCal Wing Chun Academy (Murrieta) have made a life-changing impact on my son and I and have ignited a passion for the martial arts in him that I never saw coming. My wife and I are so incredibly thankful that we made this connection and hope other families may take advantage of such an opportunity. Stop by SoCal Wing Chun Academy today. -Tyler King

As a parent, finding the right dojo for your kids means everything, and Carlson Gracie Temecula has…read morebeen such a blessing for our family. Professor Tom knows how to bring patience and understanding to teaching young kids, while still holding them to real discipline -- and it shows. Even at just 4 and 6 years old, our boys already show him such genuine respect, and as parents, that's exactly what we hoped to find. Our boys have spent the majority of their training with Coach Dienekes, and we can't say enough about him -- his guidance and dedication have been a huge part of getting our oldest ready for his competition in two weeks. On top of that, Professor Tom still made time for a private lesson with him ahead of the comp, even with how busy he's been prepping other students for their own competitions. Above and beyond doesn't even cover it. You could feel how much care and love for the sport both coaches pour into these kids. The facility itself matches the quality of the coaching -- spacious, well laid out, and always clean and organized, with dedicated areas for the different classes and even a lounge for parents. You can tell how much pride they take in the place. We tried another gym before this one, and it just never felt like this. We are so grateful to have finally found our jiu jitsu home. Thank you for everything you do!

We enrolled our son (9) and daughter (12) at this academy a little over a year ago and it's…read morehonestly been one of the best decisions we've ever made. The entire team has been instrumental in our children's success, both on the training mat and at competitions. My wife and I were both multi-sport athletes, but neither of us ever practiced or competed in combat sports so while we weren't sure what to expect, we both understood what effective teaching/training looked like. From the first day, it was evident that the team was focused on developing comfort and confidence in the new students. They were both immediately assigned to an experienced student who made them feel relaxed and walked them through both the drills and lessons over the next few days. They quickly went from being a little scared of joining a class full of students with varied experience levels to requesting to attend class every day of the week. Of all the extracurricular activities they had tried, this was the one that ignited their passion the most. The professor, Tom Cronin, and the entire team of coaches do an excellent job of keeping the kids engaged by balancing expectations with both fun and recognition. They have a great sense of each student and how to motivate them to excel. They also steer clear of pitfalls we were warned of by friends who have children attending other academies, specifically promotions based on attendance as opposed to merit. At this gym, the children are evaluated on their skills and ability to execute the requisite moves. This encourages them to excel instead of just casually participating. Within 9 months they had developed enough confidence to compete and we were blown away at how well they performed against the competition from around the country. Most importantly, they had a coach prepare them the week before with one on one training and he was the one who attended the competition to coach both of them through all of their matches. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly for us, the academy doesn't just teach them BJJ, it reinforces core behaviors that we expect from our children - Respect, honor, and community. At the end of the day, we are all trying to raise the best humans we can and I can say with absolute confidence, that this academy is an integral part of that process for our children. I absolutely recommend Carlson Gracie, Temecula to anyone with any interest in Brazilian Jui-Jitsu.
