From the reviews
Lees Judo Karate and Hapkido it has made a huge impact in my life. I started when i was 5 years old and still train now it has been 32 years in the same school. Grand Master Yong Man Lee has taught me so much from the confidence, disciple, and focus. To all the masters that have learned under Master Lee.
Attended for twenty plus years. I started as a kindergartener and went into adulthood. The classes were well-structured and engaging. Taking classes here, I learned so much more than Tang So Do. I learned disciple, leadership and bravery. I made friends and grew into a community.
Wonderful Dojang with great instructors. Great place to learn brotherhood and sisterhood of Korean based martial arts🥋

Your first judo class at Lee's School of Karate, Judo and Hapkido
Nervous about walking into a judo dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good sensei expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, learning to fall safely (ukemi), then drilling a throw or two and some groundwork with a partner — not hard randori. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a judogi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner judogi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own judogi. Live randori eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
