I'm a martial arts newbie, and I'm so glad I joined NBJJ, because I couldn't imagine being as…read moresuccessful or as welcomed as I am at this dojo! All the instructors are incredibly kind, extremely knowledgeable, and super humble. They'll all readily grapple with students and will go into as much detail or walk through/demo as many scenarios as you ask for to get total understanding. Tryfon has also completely blown me away with how knowledgeable he is about jiu jitsu, but how that also translates into real life. Especially when listening to him talk to the kids' class, he gives great lessons, real-world applications, and lays out fair expectations while also encouraging his students to do their best. He's truly a natural leader, and it's good to know that someone so genuine is at the heart of this dojo. Some other reviews have mentioned it as well, but both the instructors and the other students are super friendly, and most folks of all belt colors introduced themselves to me during my first week, making me feel very welcomed. Not only that, but being a part of the LGBTQIA+ community and using they/them pronouns, is so validating hearing all the instructors not only adapt their language to correctly use them, but to ALSO hear them correct others when I get misgendered by someone who may not be as familiar. I am so glad that NBJJ was where I decided to start my martial arts journey, because I'm hooked on the sport, and I already feel at home in the dojo! Oss!

I trained with him consistently for 13 years .He has taught me through the thick and thin of life I started out as a little weakling with no coordination and no prior martial arts training. The school and its environment lovingly led me on a path of self empowerment and compassion. I am now part of a growing community, have trained the wee ones and the black belts and have come to appreciate the benefits of a balanced life. Go here. Send your children here. He rocks!

This is a place where a child learns the importance of respect for self and others, discipline, hard work, and focus. This is a place where the art of karate is taught by master teachers with a sense of humor and patience. My son has been a student here for four years. He attends class 4-5 days/week. He is able to apply what he has learned in karate in other sports such as soccer and baseball. He loves karate and all of his teachers here. Taylor's is our second home. It is a welcoming place. I would give Taylor's six stars! Do yourself a favor and bring your child to Taylor's House of Karate!

Additionally, their team of teachers are also very decorated and great with the students. Small groups pull out during class for dedicated skill work sessions, super fun summer camps, weekday adult workouts, movie nights for families, they've thought of it all! I really appreciate the male leadership they demonstrate and how intentional they are to bring the level of expectation up when a child may be stubborn or unwilling/scared to try. They really bring out the best in their students! Appreciate you guys a ton!

My kids and I have been going to The Dojo for over a year now and have all benefited a lot from it…read more Sifu Phil is the real deal, having studied and taught several martial arts for decades, and has incredibly deep knowledge to pull from. He's also a great teacher for people of all ages and levels. My kids still refer to what they are learning as "karate" but are really learning a variety of American Kenpo, informed by Sifu Phil's other experience with boxing, wrestling, jiu jitsu, and more, striking a balance between traditional and practical. Many of the younger kids' classes are taught by Mr. Noah and Mr. Henry, who both have their own teaching styles but who all the kids love. They are both black belts who have been with The Dojo for a long time. Don't expect to get a black belt in a year or two! What I learn in the Monday and Wednesday (as of this writing) adult Tactical Kickboxing classes is a mixture of open-hand techniques and Western kickboxing. We spar--safely and with control--most nights to build up experience and understand how things really work. No hot dogs or tough guys with something to prove tolerated. Sifus Phil and Rachelle also encourage youth development through The Dojo's junior instructor program that allows kids of the right age, level and temperament start guiding other kids. The program has produced some really remarkable kids. The black belts act appropriately for their rank--it's not a badge, it's a responsibility. Finally, on a practical note, The Dojo is kept very clean! Hopefully this is helpful. I highly recommend The Dojo.

I am writing this to share with the world my great fortune of training with Sifu Scott Jensen and…read morethe 10,000 Victories School of Martial Arts located in the heart of Marin County, CA. 10,000 Victories offers classes in the "old-school" traditional style of Northern Shaolin Kung Fu, Tai Ji Chuan, and Qi Gong. I am a Licensed Acupuncturist with a Masters in Traditional Chinese Medicine and prior to joining 10,000 Victories I studied with several great teachers of Hsing-I, Bagua, Tai Ji and Kung Fu for nearly a decade. So, I kind of know what Im talking about as you read on.... First of all, Sifu Jensen is a kind, compassionate and approachable man who has dedicated himself to these arts for the better part of his life. Having studied with several great masters himself, he was encouraged to share his teachings to benefit others and help preserve and perpetuate these ancient arts. He takes this role very serious and will openly share his knowledge and help train you to be the best you can be! He works with all ages and skill levels and does an excellent job of giving everyone the individual attention they deserve. With such a wealth of knowledge, Sifu Jensen gives you all you can handle and more. Northern Shaolin Kung Fu is very athletic with deep stances, high kicks, and fast strikes. It requires that the student be strong and flexible with great balance and stability. Our classes begin with an intense workout that then flows into sparring practice to help improve your timing and confidence. Next we work on (empty) hand forms that teach martial technique while continuing to enhance the students physical fitness and mental acuity. Lastly, we learn weapon forms that include swords, sabers, staffs, spears, daggers and even the cane and fan! I also study Tai Ji Chuan with Sifu Jensen which is an effective martial art and a great way to help center the mind and body while promoting the healthy flow of Qi or energy. It along with Qi Gong are excellent for those who are not physically able to join the Kung Fu class, as well as individuals looking to combine movement with meditation. I love the combination of Kung Fu and Tai Ji and feel that it helps to complete the picture. I have personally gained so much. Physically I have never felt better. I am stronger, faster, more flexible, better balanced, and have greater endurance than ever before -- and thats saying a lot as I am a serious athlete in my own right. At the same time I feel more relaxed, confident and centered from my practice and believe it has made me a better husband, father, friend, and professional. 10,000 Victories has become my extended family and the school operates efficiently with the help of Rachel Jensens enthusiasm, determination and grace. I encourage anybody whos looking to improve their health and/or take themselves to a whole new level to check it out. Oh, did I forget to mention how much fun we have too? Dont miss out! Sincerely, -Adam Shapiro, L.Ac., MSTCM

Over the years I have met with many martial artists and I can say that what he taught me was useful, effective, and correct. His knowledge and ability are first rate. This is especially important considering the sophisticated arts he teaches. The classes go from beginner friendly to as tough as you want them to be. The environment is always kept fun and friendly. Many of my fellow students have become life long friends.

He creates the environment of fun but also teaches the youngest ones (my son is 5), that you need to listen to be successful, you control your body, it doesn't control you, work hard, and you can do hard things. My son really loves it and I can see the growth. He already can count to 10 in Korean, say thank you, and does things I've never seen him do. My son is a bit of a goofball, and he needs some growth in the area of focus, but I think this will be improved with time in these classes. You get gymnastics, physical conditioning, the art of martial arts and some life skills all in one. What more could you ask for? Well, there is one thing I wish they had. In this heat wave I wish they had air conditioning! Only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5, but I almost wish I could give 4.5 stars because I know that's kind of trivial. It's just when we have to also be present outside and it's 99 degrees, yikes! Yes we could miss a class or two, but that's not what Master Gus would suggest ;). And I agree, if they are willing and get water breaks, they're fine. Maybe I'm just complaining because I'm the one who is hot haha. Try it out! Start at 4 years old! My other son can't wait, and we already had to buy him a tae kwon do uniform on Amazon because big brother had one and he wanted to join (but can't yet as he just turned 3). Can't say enough good things about this place. Hope to see you there!
