This place has changed my life. Seriously! My mother signed me up when I was five, because I…read moreliked Ninja Turtles and I refused to play team sports. Eighteen years later, I am still a member, I earned my black belt, and nothing has been the same. I have confidence, self-esteem, and grew up an empowered, self-reliant young woman. I'm now a confident, fit adult, and it's my karate that has made all the difference. I made great friends for life, and have found a second family in the community there. You will not be intimidated here. You will be accepted and valued no matter what your age or current level of fitness. You will learn that you are capable of far more than you thought you were if you are new to the martial arts, and you will be impressed with the devotion and passion of the instructors regardless of your previous experience. There are no contracts, there are very reasonable rates, and they have reduced rates for families. There's something here for ages 5 - 80, trust me. Go take a free introductory class, and I promise you won't regret it. This is Marysville's oldest dojo for a reason. I can guarantee you that it's the best.

I studied under Hammond Shihan 30 years ago and for my own personal reasons my life took a…read moredifferent course and I left. I returned a little over a year ago this time with my family. I've again rekindled the love and appreciation for martial arts that I had many years ago. My family seems to really enjoy it also. Ronin Dojo's proprietor is, in my humble opinion, second to none. I've seen other styles and even other instructors in the Seito Shito Ryu style and, for me, only solidifies my reason for returning to Hammond Shihan. Sensei's teachings provide discipline of the mind and body while making it fun and enjoyable at the same time. Personally it provides a means in which to become more physically fit and maintain a healthier life style. Ronin Dojo isn't a "black belt factory" for the martial arts. The leadership ensures that the discipline remains pure and it's students maintain a level of respect to the art. Although the goal is to earn your black belt it doesn't come quickly or easily for that matter. You'll get out of it what you put into it! I can honestly say that my endeavor with Ronin Dojo is now a life long personal commitment and I would recommend Ronin Dojo to anyone interested in the martial arts or even just as a means of becoming physically fit!

The main emphasis of the class is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu but we work on a lot of other martial arts as well. I was nervous the first time I went but that feeling was gone after the first class. The environment is very positive. Everybody in class is friendly and very helpful when your having trouble learning a new technique. Mr. Darrow is very patient and friendly. He breaks down every technique to the point that anybody can understand the mechanics. All in all its a great gym with a very positive environment. I would recommend this gym to anybody that is interested in learning martial arts or anybody that is looking for a fun productive way to work out.

I have been going here for awhile now…read more If you want to learn BJJ GI/NOGI/Street, a form of Boxing that emphasizes self preservation first, Yoga, Kettlebells, or just want to gain increased mobility used in other sports you need to give this gym a try. No need to pick and choose, you get it all for one reasonable price, they have morning and evening classes, and they also have kids and young adults programs. The instructors/owners are great people, will work with anyone, regardless of skill or fitness level. A lot of people I recommend this gym to are intimidated, especially about the boxing, but please don't be, they don't break people here, they train them. They start you out slow, and only add pressure as you get better, and you will get better! You only go as hard as you want to, and free form sparring is optional, and only after you get good enough to defend yourself. The BJJ is not oriented towards competition, though they will help you with that if it's your goal. They do GI, No-GI, and Street Jits/CMD/Etc on Saturdays. We have young guys and a lot of older guys as well. FYI The lineage is Machdo -- King -- Kolesar Even if your just into it for fitness you have to give it a try, you have never worked out until you have boxed, done a round of BJJ rolling, or hit the kettle bells. These are phenomenal cardio and muscular endurance work outs. Women and Men are pretty much in every class, it's a tribe and an extended family, everyone watches out for you, no meatheads, no crazies, give it a try. Finally don't wait to get fit, instead get fit while learning some valuable self preservation life skills!

No such thing as too young for boxing. Best thing about the youngest group class is high demand for discipline. Eric(one of the trainers and owner) is great with young ones, but also strict. Besides boxing you have option to do jujitsu, self-defense and kettle bells. All of that included in your monthly membership fee. Technically you can attend every day if one wants to. I will be joining my kids soon. It's a great place for the whole family.
