Discover Self-Defense,
Fitness and Self-Discipline…
RIGHT HERE IN BROOKLYN!

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Dunn’s Dojo is a cooperative, non-competitive martial arts environment which allows everyone to train safely and to feel stronger, healthier and more confident, regardless of age, stage or ability.

We preserve the traditional self-defense basis of the martial arts while welcoming modern innovations in practice, instruction and leadership. It means each of our students gets a safe classroom in which to learn the martial arts, and a professional level of attention to help them reach their fitness and self-defense goals.

OUR PROGRAMS

Amazing Kids Martial Arts Classes

We help kids to build confidence by providing them with a space to learn, grow and participate at their own rate, so our programs aren’t geared towards tournaments or competitions. Instead, kids improve focus by doing one thing at a time, under a qualified instructor, a structured environment and with positive peer role-models.

Fat-Burning Kickboxing Classes

Kickboxing is the best stress-buster there is. Our high-energy classroom leaves you de-stressed, well-balanced and refocused. And you get a total body workout—our skill-based classes combine cardio, resistance and interval training to guarantee a fitness level you’ve never seen before.

Adult Martial Arts

Fun, challenging workouts blend traditional methods and modern self-defense techniques—You build your self-discipline, focus and fitness with every class. From greatly increasing your self-confidence, to learning how to use your time more efficiently, to developing laser-like focus to go after all of your goals (both in martial arts, and in life)… we aim to guide you through the teachings of martial arts to help you in all areas of your life.

SCHEDULE

“I’ve gained the courage to stay and reach my next set of goals!”

“Before I started training here, taking risks wasn’t easy for me. It’s still not easy…but now I know that some risks are completely worth it! I’ve found the courage to step onto the mat with complete strangers (most of whom are now my friends), and learn a new skill. Not only did I have the courage to try something new for the first few classes, but I’ve gained the courage to stay and to reach my next set of goals!”

—Adina

“The instructors make sure the classes are exciting, safe, interesting and fun!”

“The physical portion of any martial arts class can be very physically demanding, but the instructors here make sure that the classes are exciting, interesting and fun! I personally enjoy going through the challenge because after a great day of training I feel successful. After every class I feel a sense of accomplishment, and I always recommend it. I want my friends and family to enjoy the same feeling of satisfaction.”

—Eddie

“She gets extremely upset if we ever have to miss a class now!”

At first I wasn’t sure if my child would like the program. After all, she’s only 8, so she never really sticks to anything. Boy was I wrong! She gets extremely upset if we ever have to miss a class now. And I can tell she’s more focused, more attentive, and just all around happier after starting this program.

—Diane
