This review is long overdue, but I wanted to share my amazing experience at Bushido Kai BJJ in Irvine. Back in the summer of 2022, I attended a session with a friend who was brand new to jiu-jitsu. As a blue belt, I found the class to be very welcoming and not intimidating at all, which isn’t always the case when trying out a new gym. Coach Eugene Char was fantastic—friendly, supportive, and welcoming to all skill levels. His coaching style was clear and easy to follow, making the techniques approachable for beginners while still providing value to more experienced students. One highlight of the experience was that Coach Eugene rolled (sparred) with us during every class. This was fantastic, not only for gaining practical experience but also as a humbling reminder of how far I still have to go in my jiu-jitsu journey. What really stood out was how Coach Eugene went above and beyond. He even reached out to us the following year, remember
I can't say enough about our experience with Professor Eugene and the Bushido Kai BJJ program. I've trained, taught and coached martial arts for over 30 years. There are so many aspects to martial arts that reinforce positive values for children that will be invaluable as they grow into adults - discipline, focus, confidence and grit. Additionally, the physical benefits such as learning to defend oneself and get in better physical shape are the foundational benefits of training in martial arts. Next, why should you enroll at Bushido Kai BJJ? 1. Competence - prof Eugene is a 2nd degree in BJj from Carlos Gracie Jr. He is a former Judoka and he also has coached other athletes in various age groups in other sports including water polo and BJJ at the most elite national and international levels. He is also a teacher and has taught many ages for a long time. He and his team have an incredible amount of patience(something I lack) 2. Convenien
I am so happy with Bushido-Kai Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for my 11-year-old son! After trialing countless sports and not finding something he really enjoyed, we have finally found my son's sport with Jiu Jitsu. My son is now in his second season with Professor Eugene. He is loving it and truly looks forward to every class! Professor Eugene is the perfect combination of skill, authority, and has the teaching skills needed to break it down to the students. I couldn't be happier with the experience for my son, and it's so much fun watching him on the mat during class! I highly recommend Bushido-Kai Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for any child or adult, especially if your child hasn't found his/her sport yet!
The environment here is something special and our experience so far at this dojo has been truly wonderful!!! I was worried we wouldn't be able to find a place where my kid would be able to thrive since she really struggles with following and processing verbal instructions, and I can't brag about the staff here enough! The coaches are incredibly patient and intentional. They take the time to break things down step by step, demonstrate each move, and give my child the opportunity to learn through repetition and practice in a way that really works for her. What has been most meaningful is seeing my child's confidence grow because she is improving in not only technical skills, but also in how to carry herself in just daily everyday life. I see my child now more willing to try, to keep going even when something feels hard, and really feel pride. Her peers are kind, encouraging, and inclusive. I have seen other kids step in to help her when s
I don’t want to recommend this jiu-jitsu school… because someone might take our spot! My son has been training here for a year, and I’ve seen the growth — not just in martial arts skills, but also in responsibility and respect. We couldn’t be happier with the instructors and the community. Just promise you won’t take his mat space!"
Really great program for anyone looking to learn Jiu Jitsu or self defense. Really thoroughly instructed classes for people of all angels. Friendly and welcoming class members as well.
