At Dojo Ochiba, we share the timeless wisdom of three Japanese martial arts: Judo, Jiujitsu, and Karate. Our mission is to inspire children and adults to cultivate physical and mental well-being, self-reliance, and a deeper connection to themselves and others through martial arts training.
The Japanese term "taitoku" (体得) translates to "learning or remembering with the body" or "embodiment through physical practice." It refers to the concept of acquiring knowledge, skill, or understanding through repeated physical action, where the body internalizes the technique or movement until it becomes instinctive.
We believe in nurturing human well-being and fostering self-reliance through dedicated practice.
Our Philosophy
Our training emphasizes
Physical conditioning to build strength and endurance.
Fluid movement and full-body coordination for agility and balance.
Discipline and respect, where every session is a commitment to growth—50% for yourself and 50% for your training partners.
Our approach to martial arts goes beyond technique. It’s about embracing challenges, building resilience, and honoring the journey of self-improvement.

Build camaraderie with training partners who share your passion.
With 37 classes offered weekly, we make daily practice accessible and encourage consistency to help you thrive.
A Challenge Worth Taking
