Group classes continue to be virtual only. Daily club procedures include: - Temperature checks upon arrival for all clients and staff - Cloth face masks required for students and staff whenever in the building; these can be worn over the fencing mask during lessons - Fencing bags placed in designated spots which are sanitized immediately after each lesson - Thorough sanitation of entire club every 2 hours - Closed lobby to spectators

Six years ago, after the intensity of several competition seasons of rhythmic gymnastics, we were…read moreready for a fun and friendly environment for our daughter to do sports and we chose fencing at Team Touche, not too far from our house. And fun she had! Six years later, every night, she is still excited to go to practice at TTFC. And as an additional bonus, along the way, in March, she became the 2019 US National Champion in Women's Foil in the cadet and Junior categories. And now at 16 years old, she is ranked as one of the top women's foil fencers in the country and this season, she has represented the US at international fencing competitions (World Cups. Grand Prix) on both Senior and Junior USA National Teams. Coach Tedd is simply amazing! His unique coaching style combines friendliness and fun with top world-class fencing expertise. And now that the club has grown, there are also other great coaches working at TTFC and we take lessons from them as well. Coach Raul brings international-level fencing and coaching expertise from Cuba - one of the strongest fencing schools. For many years, he himself was a top-level international fencer and now he is sharing his knowledge with TTFC students of all levels and ages. Coach Alex is also an outstanding resource for us. His intimate knowledge of all the technical inner-workings of both epee and foil fencing and his decades of experience coaching national team member from many countries has proved to be essential to our daughter's success in this sport. I am so glad that fencing specialists of truly top world-level caliber turned out to be at a club right here in San Diego, just a few minutes from our house in Carmel Valley.

Close to the freeway, many stores/restaurants nearby. The salle itself puts safety and comfort of fencers first. There are separate well appointed rooms for parents, kids, homework doing students, etc. Coaching is on very high level, the club has produced in short time a few national event medalists. Looking forward to more results, great athletes from the Golden Sabre Academy.

It's a wonderful place with loving and understanding people and I'm so glad that we listened to our friends and family and decided to join the Encinitas karate family! Thank you so much for everything!

Don't think about joining here if you're not READY to become a LEADER of your own LIFE. Don't think about joining here if you're not READY to be part of the FRIENDLIEST COMMUNITY around. Training at Kickforce Martial Arts not only allowed me to improve my Martial Arts. But, also become an individual who can take lead within my own community. The community here is so openly supportive that there's no space to say "I LEARNED IT ALL". We all help each other grow one another whether if it's in training, character & on development. I really RECOMMEND taking Mrs. Aguilar Kickboxing Class on Tuesday's. She will work you, break you & build you back up as a whole new fighter & individual. I don't have any kids myself, but I witness growth within all individuals of all ages. From a 5 year old to their 40 year old parents. There's just so much confidence that kids are introduced too. That if I had a kid, I would waste NO TIME on having them be part of the community.

My experience with Kickforce began in June of 2025. It began with the Tigers program for my then 5…read moreyear old, about to turn 6. He was adjusting to something new and out of his comfort zone. Which leads me into something that I have taught my boys now that I learned from Master Aguilar. The best way to put it is each time we do something even just a little bit outside our comfort zone, that circle that bubble that is protecting our fears and our anxieties its opened a little bit more. I loved hearing that because it's what I've known to be true for so long and that way of explaining it. Anyways aside from Master Aguilars Moments Of Wisdom, I will call them, I began to see my son needing a closer role model. So we began the beginners class, both of us. My son is loving it and he's gone up 2 belts and almost going on a third. He is using his voice more and for the first time (yes after 8 months ish) he didn't give me any push back on going. He has been being recognized for accomplishments and we are BOTH getting stronger together. Tara and her husband are amazing The customers and their children are humble and nice. This is the place to be for your martial arts journey.

My son just had his nerf birthday party at West Coast Martial Arts Academy and it was a blast!…read more I was looking for an indoor venue to host his birthday given the weather has been unpredictable. The space was open with high ceilings and you get to use the whole facility including the waiting area, main floor, and boxing ring. The party package included 90 mins of nerf battle time, 30 mins for cake, 2 helpers to set up, clean up, and entertain the kids, nerf guns, protective eye glasses, and bullets for 20 kids (additional cost if you have more than 20 kids), and tables and chairs. The cost was $549. They allow you to bring food, drinks, and decorations. It was easy to book the event and the front office assistant, Ren, was great at coordinating everything. All the kids had so much fun! Would highly recommend booking your kids next birthday party here!
