LA Tenri Judo Dojo

I brought my son to training in Tenri Judo. Such training must be in every judo club! The training lasted one hour and thirty minutes. That's how long a quality workout should last 💪🏼👍🏼. Most trainings in LA limit workouts to one hour. And we know that's not enough. But unfortunately, the quality of training in many clubs is lacking. In Tenri Judo they teach traditional Judo as it should be. I admire the Senseis of this place. As it seemed to me, this dojo is not for beginners. You need to have at least basic judo skills. I brought my son few days before the competition to gain some experience. We spent an hour on the way in traffic, because we live far from this place. Well, it's worth it ❤️ Thank you Senseis 🙏

This is an excellent training environment for those new and experienced in judo. The instructors are thorough in their workout lineup and they help everybody who has a question. I visited here prior to the USA National competition and was welcomed with warm smiles and positive attitudes. When I come back to the area, I will be back again to train with this crew.

This place is hands down the best place for BJJ practitioner to get better at throws and takedowns in Los Angeles. Don’t bother with other place for Judo b/c the majority of them don’t teach adults or their class slots are limited. Now it is true that they don’t really teach much unless you attend the fundamental class. But at one point in your BJJ/ Judo journey. You have to take responsibility in being objective in what you are weak in. BJJ is traditionally weak at stand up and the Sensei at Tenri through training will help you out in that area. Plus, even though they don’t teach during the regular class for adults. When you get your USA Judo membership, you automatically gain access to the American Judo System video library that Jimmy Pedro and Travis Steven’s created. The American Judo System video plus studying John Danaher Feet to Floor Series has accelerated my Judo training. I know that most BJJ practitioner fear being thrown which I get and Tenri has a reputation of not being beginner friendly but you can make your sessions at Tenri as hard as you want it to be. I promise you’ll be a better BJJ athlete coming training three days a week versus training one week before a tournament working standup at a BJJ school. Even if you don’t like stand up and you’re primarily a guard player. You’ll know the ins and out of stand up and pull to guard on you terms with you being the dictator of where the fight goes. As long you put in the mat time, you will reap the rewards of becoming a complete grappler.

Thee best Judo Dojo hands down. Sensei's are legitimate, tradition and master's at thier craft. Students and members are very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The level of experience and competitiveness is second to none. Its 💯 percent 👍 a Judo establishment with out a doubt. Definitely happy that I was lucky enough to find this place!!!

Parents, don’t waste your time and nerves. Today was our fourth attempt— yes, the fourth one! What a nightmare. They still didn’t accept us. I’ve never had to go through such a process even when applying for a serious job! It really felt like some kind of discrimination — maybe national or something else, I don’t know. But the result is the same: we were not accepted after four attempts. So please, don’t waste your time, and energy. There are many judo clubs in Los Angeles that welcome everyone without any discrimination.
