Great place, great instructors, they are many years of experience and are very patient when working with a new learner. I do the Japanese Ju Jutsu and The instructors get straight to the point and also have great humor. They come from the original school in the Bx so you know they don’t play. Also they teach law enforcement which is a plus.

I've been at this location for around twenty years as part of the Judo program. The school also teaches traditional Japanese jujutsu, and has a karate/Taekwondo program for kids. The Judo program has adults, teens and children. There is ample seating for observing visitors/parents. The instructors are competent, but they are also friendly and honest. The place has two mats, a weight room, male and female bathrooms, and lockers. The main mat is constructed on a platform that has some give to it, which reduces the impact of falls.
