As a family with blood lines that are part Hawaiian, the Ohana of a Dojo is an essential component for our family. Master Molina, Chief Instructor Nels Torino and Sifu Gary Yumang from the first day of class have not only warmly welcomed my family to Kokua, but have consistently provided hands-on detailed disciplined instruction with deep Aloha (Love). My boys are thriving at this dojo- but most importantly we have gained a larger Ohana (family). Your child and family will learn about focus, honor, humility and respect at this dojo!

My review refers mostly to Livermore since the majority of my classes have been at that location. From the start the instructors make you feel comfortable and welcomed. Just as import, the Krav students are the same way. The pace of the class is excellent from the warm up thru learning moves/techniques and onto practicing the moves. The instructors offer an excellent balance of group and 1x1 time. Meaning, instructors give excellent feedback to each student throughout the entire duration of class. They really care and take pride in their job. At times the class can feel intense from a workout standpoint but this is a good thing. It's a fantastic workout. Students can take a break at any point they need a breather or water. The self defense techniques are taught at both a slow and fast pace. You are never left standing there not knowing what to do next. From the fitness aspect to the self defense skills you learn you really can't go wrong taking Krav Maga classes here. It has been an incredibly positive experience so far.

The life lessons learned here can be applied to all areas of life, from fitness to school to your future. Through my black belt journey I became more confident, brave, and hardworking. I felt a lot more comfortable in leadership positions as well. Physically I reached a level I never thought I could before joining this martial arts school, and I continue to train even after attaining my black belt.

The teachers are great role models themselves. Our daughter has been here since they came to Pleasanton, and is proudly advancing to 3rd degree black belt. She has had fabulous moments in this family, and is now happy giving herself back to the school. For everyone interested, apart from regular instruction, they have XPT fitness incorporated, so that students can take care of their fitness goals. Belt advancements happen strictly, but timely. Tournaments are always spaced out thoughtfully in order to maximize representation from the school. Cost wise, apart from the monthly tuitions, expect to pay some more for tournaments, gear, uniform, testing fees. This is quite normal for any martial arts program. Your child will have their greatest life experience here!! They are currently expanding their center too, in order to space out and give more personalized instruction. Get yourself a good workout too, while you are there! Check out their fitness program at Tribe Strength and Fitness! Awesome Coaches, mindful of everyone's individual capabilities, always pushing us to strive better

There are several promotions throughout the year for new students, with a great "parent of student" option that I take advantage of to pursue my own black belt journey, when work permits. The CPR courses, parents' night out, and ladies' night out are all wonderful extra opportunities for families to get more than just Taekwondo experiences from the school:)
