Have been attending AKA San Diego for about 7 months. I had a good experience starting off as they are very beginner friendly. Coach T provides excellent coaching, and the environment at AKA is great.

My daughter absolutely LOVED every day she trained at Blue Dragons! She is just four years old and was only able to train for a few months before we moved, but she still talks about martial arts almost daily and has insisted we find a place to continue training near our new house! Thank you, Blue Dragons, for being an excellent introduction to martial arts for my daughter!

We have been with BDMA for over 3 years and I can not say enough nice things about them. Master Tony and the other instructors are amazing with the kids at every level of training both in Taekwondo and Jujitsu. The instructors are firm, but patient and make sure that each student feels successful during every class. Great place for kids and adults to take classes at any level.

My kids love this place and have really thrived since starting in mid-February. We have tried a few other martial arts places, but it wasn't until we finally gave Blue Dragon a try did they really take to it. Before we signed up here and I told my boys I was going to sign them up for martial arts again and they said they only wanted to go once or twice a week. After starting, there is hardly a week that goes by that we're not there at least four times a week. All the instructors are great and we appreciate the values instilled along with the training and fun the kids get to experience. Definitely recommend.

My daughter who is 6 has been with Blue dragons for over 1 year now and my son who is 15 has been with them for 9 months. They both enjoy attending their classes on a daily basis and try not to miss classes. The instructors are wonderful. They know how to interact with all different age groups. We love coming here. The facility's are always clean and instructors are friendly. I recommend Blue Dragons to all my friends and people I may have conversations with about martial arts.
