OUR CLIENTS LOVE US!

“RADA has been one the best experiences for my 10 yr old son. It’s given him confidence that has extended into other areas of his life. The instructors have a great command presence and are very compassionate at the same time. My son has learned a real life skill being able to defend himself, but the real value has been the improvement I’ve seen in his character. The children truly have to earn their belt promotions, which is a big reward for them, teaching them the benefits of hard work and focus that can be applied to all ares of their lives. The best part is it’s fun, the kids love it, my son is always eager to get back to class to grapple with the other children and learn from their instructors. I am truly grateful to have RADA in our lives.”

“I’ve trained Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for 10 years in many academies in the world, with a doubt RADA is the most friendly and professional of them all. It has many schedules and for all levels. If you are in San Diego and like to train BJJ , training at RADA is a must . Not only are the students and teachers dedicated and skilled, but also the school has a friendly vibe that is welcoming for beginners as well as experienced fighters. Prof. Rafael and all the instructors there are experienced and knowledgeable professors, but what I really like about them is how they genuinely care about seeing their students grow and improve in Jiu-jitsu. I would definitely recommend checking out RADA La Jolla. It’s a terrific school, and I’m proud to be a member.”
