I had a previous injury from another popular BJJ gym and Dumlao's gentle and friendly style of Jiu Jitsu was perfect for me to rehabilitate the injury while still progressing/learning in BJJ. When I was finally able to get serious about Jiu Jitsu this school did NOT disappoint! When you sign up for the BJJ program at Dumlao's -- you have automatic access to 4 different affiliate BJJ schools in the area (Sabre, East Bay Academy, New Creation, Train for Life); each school offering different specialties and atmospheres -- enough to train a range of people (hobbyist to amateur MMA fighters to pro fighters). I owe so much to Dumlao's, they'll always be my home gym/family. I came in unconfident about myself; I left a better person, knowing I can handle not only physical threats but also life's hurdles.

Having sat most of my summer watching all of you work out the details for the karate/sparring group to get them ready and to stay ready, and then see it on the mat yesterday...thanks for this journey of helping me raise Ethan and now Ben to be greater kids...it really does takes a village!

My wife and I have had the pleasure of attending Jason's Cardio Kickboxing class for the last six years. We are continuously pushed to our physical limits and encouraged to do more.

Amazing dojo! My daughter in high school takes the cardio kickboxing class, and she says it's great, her energy levels are higher, attitude is better lol. And she says everyone at the dojo is encouraging and supportive. Mr. Jason keeps the class fun and you get a great workout!

We started out with my 6-yo signing up for karate because she was interested (2014). Now the whole family is practically here all the time with the hubby in adult karate and FCC, and with me in BJJ and Cardio Kickboxing.

My family and I joined almost a month ago and we love it! We especially love the family environment. My son loves going to his karate class and his instructor Roland is so good with the students. They learn discipline and self defense, plus they are learning about stranger danger. My daughter does the Muay Thai classes and she really likes learning self defense and gets great exercise while she learns fighting skills. I wanted to get involved too so I joined cardio kickboxing with Jason. Best choice I've made for myself. Jason is a great instructor who makes sure to work us out hard and efficiently. He changes it up and makes sure our whole body gets a workout. It is tough, but like he says "what you put in, is what you get out". It's challenging but I love it. If you like a good workout with a challenge, then this is your place. Try it and you won't be disappointed. Less

Take care of the mind and body and you will be the happiest you that you can be. The DMA family has been amazing for me, and I shed years off of the age that I felt. Karate & Cardio kickboxing has given me an excitement and a will to workout that I never had before. I give my sincere thanks to Instructors Roland, Renee, Sean and Jason.

This is my sixth week in my kickboxing class with Jason Richardson Albini. Awesome instructor. I am fitting cloths I could not fit anymore. Yeah summer time here I come.

I think they not only teach their students about martial arts, but include life application. They foster a warm family environment and encourage the kids to always show respect in and out of the dojo. Great establishment.

I take the Cardio kickboxing class. Jason is the best!!!!!

Great family atmosphere and the respect for martial arts there is top notch.

If you're looking for a place where your child can learn self defense and discipline in a fun family environment, this is the place for you.

Best place in the Bay Area to learn karate. Instructors are upbeat and encouraging.

The best martial arts school I have ever come across, they don't only get u ready in martial arts but they get you ready for life,, the endless journey, life,, to get your belts from Dumlaos means that you are ready to embark on this journey, me n my kids have been with them for at least 18 years n I have to truly thank them for what my kids have become,, here's to another 18 n then some!! Oss! !

Love this place!!!

Makes you feel at home the second you walk in.

I recommend to anyone looking for a great school with great instructor, great staff and a great atmosphere for you or your child. Dumlao Martial Arts is the best in the area to train with. Fun for kids and adults.
