From the reviews
For years I would drive by Bushido Knights Rue wondering what was going on in that all adult school as I rushed home from TaeKwonDo class to shower and get to my third shift job. Finally I was passing by on a night off and decided to check it out.
I currently train at the Bushido Ryu Dojo. It’s been a little over a year. I try to go twice a week. If I were to guess the ages range from 17-65 years old. Most of us came with no martial arts experience whatsoever. I am currently a purple belt. Both men and women train together and come from all walks of life.
The Best Self Defense Martial Arts School in South Florida. While most academies teach sport martial arts, this school prepares you for real life situations, street combat, hand to hand fighting, defense against sticks, knives, guns, even multiple attackers.
Bushido Ryu is in my opinion, one of the few true dojos in the U.S. outside of Japan. What is taught here is far more than just self defense or points based karate showmanship. I have been attending for roughly 3 weeks now, and my life has already been forever changed.
New to Krav Maga? Start at Bushido Ryu Dojo -Krav Maga, Karate, Jujitsu, Dania Beach Fort Lauderdale
Bushido Ryu Dojo -Krav Maga, Karate, Jujitsu, Dania Beach Fort Lauderdale comes up as a beginner-friendly school — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or set foot in a self-defense class, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or athletic to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and instructors scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable schools build the fundamentals (stance, movement, and core self-defense techniques) over weeks, and controlled pressure-testing eases in gradually so every drill stays safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or Level 1 class time so your first session is alongside others who are also just starting out. Most schools are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first Krav Maga class at Bushido Ryu Dojo -Krav Maga, Karate, Jujitsu, Dania Beach Fort Lauderdale
Nervous about walking into a Krav Maga school for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling a few core techniques with a partner — controlled and at your own pace, not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move in — there's no uniform or special gear you need to buy to get started. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — most schools have everything else you'll need for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call what to bring. Pressure-testing eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid — you won't be sparring hard on day one. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and meet the instructor. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
