The DOJO

Karate was huge for me growing up (uncles with black and brown belts, asking for tonfas and sais for Christmas while other kids were asking for Matchbox cars, a subscription to ‘Black Belt’ magazine) so I couldn’t wait for my kids to get old enough to enroll them as well.
After reading a lot of great stories about The Dojo (exposing the kids to volunteering and non-​profit work on top of the actual martial arts) I knew this was the place to go.
Sensei Dan is a perfect blend of Miyagi and Kreese (stern but nurturing, strict but with a sense of humor) and reminded me of my Sensei Doyle from USA Goju back in the day.
Definitely recommended.

Sensei Dan Rominski is a great role model to the children that attend his classes. He reinforces the same lessons that I teach to my step son. I started attending the class myself because I was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic and I needed to find a way to help reverse the condition. I wasn’t big into going to gyms and with my work schedule it made it difficult. But with classes 5 days a week at the Dojo and the class starting at 7PM it has made it easier for me to attend the classes. I love the experience and Sensei Dan is a great trainer. This has been the best decision that I have made. The other students as well as the staff are all friendly and eager to help. I would definitely recommend the Dojo to any adult or parents that are thinking to have their kids take marital arts.

Best martial arts school by far. I have trained at TheDOJO since 2003. Reason for signing up was simple: I was tired of going to the gym. I had no idea what to expect but now, looking back at the years, I have learned how to live a more mindful life. This school is one of the very few schools in the area that upholds the tradition of martial arts. On top of it, Sensei Dan is probably the best martial artists I have come across, and I have seen quite a few by visiting other schools as well as participating in ultimate black belt test in California. So if you are looking for a school either for yourself or your kids that will not only teach you how to be a great martial artist but also how to live a more mindful life, based on principles such as respect, perseverance, humbleness, self confidence… this is the place to be.
