Great place, great instructors, they are many years of experience and are very patient when working with a new learner. I do the Japanese Ju Jutsu and The instructors get straight to the point and also have great humor. They come from the original school in the Bx so you know they don’t play.

★★★★★ — Gc, Aug 2020

Great place for learning different disciplines. Such as Jujutsu, Taekwondo and Judo. Great atmosphere. You feel like family from day one. They have a small work out section filled with all that you need for cardio and weights while you wait for your class or it's an off day for you. Join the 3 Mountain Warrior family

Your first judo class at San Yama Bushi Judo & Ju-Jutsu

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.

Judo is a contact sport. Ease in, tap early and often, listen to your sensei, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
