My 6 year old daughter started going to Pride about a month ago and we just love it! Staff is professional. Classes start on time. Huge amount of people and kids coming to learn. They keep it all safe with mask wearing and taking temperature before entering the class. I can't say enough good things about it. And make it all worth it. The instructors are fantastic! Mr. Lara is one of the best. He keeps the little ones totally engaged from beginning to end. He is super energetic and loves what he does. I've been trying to find a place for myself to practice Aikido, but now I am seriously considering

We are very pleased to be part of the Pride Martial Arts family! The growth we have seen in our kids since they started is very noticeable. From respect, commitment, leadership, and athleticism, this is an institution that delivers on their promise. We started during the pandemic as a new activity for the kids to try out and see if they liked it, as there were not a lot of things for children to do during lockdown. They had the option of Zoom classes, so that was a nice start for our kids, as well as reassuring for us as parents. Once in-person classes began, the preparedness and cleanliness

Great place for young people to receive high quality martial arts training. Instructors are very professional and patient. With that said, parents should understand that this is a training place, not a babysitting playground. Kids learn respect, self-control as well as exercising their bodies and minds in a healthy way with the positive attitude. Highly recommended!

This is hands down the best dojo not just in Eastlake but in the San Diego area! The owners are very professional, understanding and supportive not just of our child’s taekwondo goals but also goals in all aspects of life. They take the time to help the kids get motivated especially when they are experiencing some difficult times. When our daughter was starting kindergarten, she was having adjustment issues and was crying everyday in school. Senior Master Berry noticed that something was off when we came to the dojo one time and he offered to help by having a private lesson with Audrey to
