    My daughter has been a student at Solis for almost 5 months now. Sifu James, Ms. Carla and the…read moreother instructors are the kindest people and they are all great with the kids. My daughter looks forward to coming to class every week. Not only have I seen her confidence increase, but she's more focused, disciplined and eager to learn -- all of this with a huge smile on her face in every class! I look forward to seeing my daughter continue leveling up at SMA. Thank you SMA for all that you do!!

    My 12 year old granddaughter is working towards her black belt at Solis Martial Arts. She is happy…read moreand is learning form, function, and intensity from a staff that is dedicated to giving their full attention to each student. She has improved dramatically since she started there over a year ago. She is very proud of her new level of skills and abilities and it shows on her face because she is always smiling. She transferred from a nearby dojo that has 50-70 students on the mat during their classes. You cannot teach, monitor, or keep safe any child in a crowd that big. None of the students get any personal attention or help during class because there is only one instructor on the mat to teach 50-70 kids. At Solis, when there are more than 10 students on the mat, there are at least two or more instructors. They care about the safety of the students and give precise, individual corrections and instructions so that when they advance to the next level, you know that they are worthy of the new belt color. Professor Solis, Sifu James, Instructor Doan, and Miss Carla are great at motivating and teaching the students that attend Solis. I am extremely happy that our family goal of helping our granddaughter get her black belt will be realized at this dojo. She has gained confidence, pride, and self-respect for her accomplishments in martial arts, and we feel that with this critical skill she will be safer in today's world. Thank you so much Solis Martial Arts for helping her on her journey.

    If you're looking to learn martial arts and get in shape then this is the place. The culture,…read morecoaches and fellow students are all very supportive and encouraging. I've taken BJJ and cardio kick boxing classes for the last 6 months. I was a little worried as an older student about injury and not "keeping up" with the younger crowd, but everyone is so supportive and care is taken for all our training partners. It has definitely been a life changing experience for me, and I hope to continue to journey. Thanks to all the coaches and students.

I've been in their Jiu Jitsu program for about 5 years and absolutely love it. The atmosphere is so welcoming, not only for this program but any program you choose to be a part of. All of the instructors are knowledgeable and take the time to ensure that you understand what they are teaching before moving on. anyone and everyone who either attend classes here or have children/family that attend classes here can tell you that it's one big family. Dumlao's is simply the best school around!

I'm now in my mid 30's and I can still remember everything he taught me. I have used the "think sidestep" method not only in a physical matter but a mental one as well! Thank you Instructor Stuart!

I have tried everything under the sun for my Son and thank God for a friend who use to attend Stuart's school 30 years ago that told me about him. Yes, if you can't handle someone else caring enough about your child to get on his ass especially a preteen, then this is not the place for your child. Stuart is very strict, accurate, and HE CARES!! I am so thankful that there was a stranger out there that actually cared enough about my Son to help me and change his life around. In my opinion and many others I know, Stuart is a blessing, if troubled or misguided children had someone like him in their lives, this world would be a better place. He's no holds bared on these kids who need it the most, he won't sugar coat or beat around the bush with any ridiculous situations, it is what it is with him. He's there to help and to help only and I think when people (these other reviews) see how it really is there, they get offended or feel it should be fun and games. It's tough, it's hard, his place is preparation for people big and small to becoming better people period in this crazy world. If there's anyone out there that thinks he's too tough or works his students too hard, take them to Disneyland!! #TEAMSTUART

    Kim is an excellent trainer in Hercules. Her sessions are like getting personal training attention…read morewith group/team support. I'm not the biggest fan of working out but I love going to her classes and feel accomplished after her workouts. The class sizes are small with anywhere from approx 2-6 people per session. You workout as a group but everything is personalized for each individual (Kim tells you how much weight to grab) and everything is done at your own pace so you don't have to worry about what level your fitness or strength is at... Just know you'll be getting stronger everyday from when you start! Many of the workouts include weights (dumbbells, kettle bells, etc), TRX/resistance bands, boxing, etc... Keeps the workout fun and challenging every time. If you have an injury or issue holding you back, Kim will modify a workout that's best for you. Give her a try, you won't be disappointed. Kim's hours are Monday-Friday 10:30-11:30am 11:30-12:30 4:00-5:00pm 5:00-6:00pm She also has a 3:00-4:00pm session on Fridays and 9:30-10:30 class on tues/thurs.

    Kim is by far the best trainer I have ever had! She takes the time to completely understand why you…read moreare making the huge decision of taking control of your health and admitting you need help. She feels honored that you are including her in this big step and it shows. She personalizes your workouts to what YOU need and she is always there if you have questions, concerns or are on the verge of a mental breakdown because you think it's too hard and you can't go on. When you first start you think she is only your trainer and that she will be barking orders at you like you are a Marine in bootcamp but quickly you discover that she has a specially way to motivate you without getting in your face (don't get me wrong, she will give you a subtle nudge when she sees you not doing the routine lol) and best of all she becomes one of your best friends! All of her clients are nice, fun people and we all become a little family, or as she calls us....her army of badasses! Lol Come join the fun! There is always room for more in Kim's Army!
