    Owaza Ryu Ju Jitsu Judo is the real deal! I knew from the beginning I needed what this place had…read moreto offer! Hanshi Jim Rivera has a passion for the art of self-defense like no other. You see the joy he receives from sharing his vast amount of knowledge every day. He really cares about his students, and I have always admired his generosity and compassion. Another impressive aspect of this Dojo is the camaraderie shared. From the very first day, I was warmly welcomed and felt as if I were a part of the family. I look at my Dojo mates as I would look upon a brother or sister. If you want to learn how to defend yourself this is the place to do it. This school is absolutely amazing! I am so excited for what the future holds. Since I began training, my self-confidence has grown immensely, and my mental and physical health are better than they have been in decades. I know as long as I put in the work Hanshi Jim Rivera will lead me to greatness. The hardest step is that first one through the front door.

He teaches from real life scenarios that will protect you and your loved ones. Joining Owaza Ryu Ju Jitsu has helped me to gain control and confidence at a time in my life when I didn't know what to do. He's there for his students for more than just teaching Martial Arts, he's there to help in life as well. I am truly blessed to be a part of his dojo.

    My nine-year-old daughter had been attending Okami Clan MMA before and after school program for one…read moremonth. The first 3 payments I was overcharged an unseemly amount but after several phone calls in attempt to receive credit and to correct the charges I was placed on a recurring payment plan that seemed appropriate. I strongly advise not to pay with a card. My utmost issue took place on Thursday, February 21st. After picking up my daughter, I noticed she was visibly upset and had been crying. In speaking to my daughter she states she became frightened after an employee, Von Claude Parker began making statements that he would harm her. In speaking with my daughter, she stated Von instructed she and other students in the class to stand with their nose against the wall and not to move or otherwise turn around or he would throw a knife at their back. She states Von then began to approach various children from behind telling them that their parents had arrived to pick them up, which subsequently caused the child to turn around thinking they were leaving the facility. At that time Von Parker would strike each child in the back with what was later identified as a pool noodle "punishing them" for not following his instructions to remain still with their nose against the wall. According to my child, she began to cry silently as she did not know what was happening and tried to remain perfectly still in fear. I informed my child that while upsetting, I was sure Von would not actually hurt a child and asked if she had informed Mr. Parker as to her fears. At that time my daughter stated Von (as well as other instructors) had previously informed the class on many occasions that crying was a sign of weakness and would often ridicule children who they determined to be weak by calling them sissy's. She stated the whole point of this place is to be tough. During the time my child has attended Okami Clan MMA when picking her up, I have personally witnessed Von, grab another child's belly, pinching excess fat while telling the child, "You shouldn't eat cupcakes because you're bellys so fat." My daughter has also stated that Von would tell the class as a whole how "ugly" they were. On several occasions, my daughter has come home feeling uncomfortable with the name calling and "inappropriate" conversations taken place at this facility. On Friday, February 22nd I went to Okami Clan MMA and spoke with the owner Robert Batey (otherwise known as "Sensei"), in an attempt to express my concerns. At that time Robert became extremely defensive and insisted Von (his brother) would never do or say those things. He was extremely rude and insulting to not only myself but my child as he stated, "This is what was wrong with the world today, Parents who coddle their kids." Robert went on to state that I was was being irrational for addressing my issue with him, that this conversation should not be held between him and I but with my child, because she shouldn't be so frail. I found Robert to be extremely rude and both Robert and Von to be unprofessional in not only how they address their students, but equally in how they speak to parents.
