San Diego Judo and Jiu Jitsu 12265 Scripps Poway Parkway, Poway, CA 92064

"My 10 year old son has been training jiu jitsu since he was 4. When introduced to Sensei Leilani Akiyama and her judo program over a year ago he has become invigorated with the sport and his mentor Sensei Leilani. Leilanis demeanor is perfect for kids and adults. She is patient and caring as well as extremely technically sound and competitive. Her background having competed in the World Judo championships several years adds a level of knowledge second to none. Judo has greatly helped my son in his jiu jitsu competitions with scoring takedowns. He now enjoys competing in judo and jiu jitsu. There are several other coaches making up the team at San Diego Judo and Jiu Jitsu. Jacob Flores also helps with the kids judo class as well as adults. His level of expertise is phenomenal and watching him perform throws is amazing. Teaching the kids jiu jitsu class is Sensei Matheus, who is simply awesome! Also helping is Sensei Leila who my son has trained with since he began Jiu jitsu. She is instantly like able. This dojo has a great family vibe and helps instill confidence in kids while making learning judo and jitsu fun. Parking is plentiful and the dojo is spacious and clean. I would highly recommend stepping in and meeting the instructor’s and watching or participating in a class."

"The best ever! Leilani and Jacob are both world-class Judoka with great knowledge and patience who genuinely want students to succeed. Facility is really comfortable as well."

"Very Good Instruction. Would highly recommend."
