Tanuki Martial Arts

My kids and I are all involved with Tanuki and I have nothing but good things to say about the owners, the instruction, and the safety that exists in the community. As a trans person, it's difficult to find safe spaces to practice martial arts and the owners are exceptional at building an inclusive community for everyone.

I've had my fair share of visiting and training at a plethora of BJJ gyms around the world, and I will say this: Tanuki MA sets a very high exemplary standard for safe, fun and high energy environment.Not only are the mats kept religiously clean every day, the coaches and regulars here are incredibly kind and well spoken. I didn't know a few people when I first attended, and the gym welcomed me with open arms.

fantastic community, knowledgeable instructors that know how to adjust to varying levels to keep classes informative, challenging and developing. Highly recommend!

Our 9 year old and 11 year old have been coming to Tanuki for a year now. Marianna and Seiji are tremendously skilled martial artists and instructors both with children and adults. They are compassionate and accommodating in terms of neurodivergence and the diverse emotional dispositions of children. They have created a welcoming, supportive, and vibrant community that we are grateful to be a part of.My husband and I have also dabbled in the adult boxing and bjj classes which are available at many days and times and have the same welcoming and supportive atmosphere.

Amazing gym. High level coaching in gi and nogi. Family friendly environment.Clean mats and facility with a weights room

Top tier instructors, positional sparring, amazing, welcoming, caring community. Best workout you'll ever get. Gives you a lot of confidence. Truly a family. High quality instruction. Great attention to students, all your questions are answered and demonstrated. This gym has had a big impact on my life, mentally and physically. Could not ask for better people than the members of this gym. Amazing, amazing community. Plays up your jiu jitsu strengths and improves your weaknesses. Rolls are super fun and challenging. They also have a gym. Hit a PR there today thanks to the instructor. You can tell the kids are having the time of their life in kids class.

My family and I love coming here for the classes. My kids enjoy their BJJ classes. The instructors keep the kids moving and having fun. They know how to engage a group of children - no easy feat. The kids look forward to their classes and ask every day if it's BJJ day. Thanks for creating a fun, safe space for kids to learn new skills and to stay active!

Great kids program! The instructors Marianna and Seiji are both skillful and have extensive experience coaching children. They go above and beyond to make sure that the kids have a safe and fun learning experience. My 2 children (6 and 9 years old) participate in the BJJ and boxing classes and they love them!

Great school with a mix of beginners and more advanced students. Credit to Seiji and Marianna for creating a great gym culture. One of the things that I look out for in a martial arts school is the sense of community and welcomeness, and this school ranks highly in that regard among hobbyists and competitors alike. Newcomers are treated nicely and eased into training while there is still a decent competition team. Facilities are nice, mats are clean, and it's still small enough to be intimate. They offer BJJ, wrestling, kids classes, yoga and striking, so there's something for everyone. Would highly-recommend.

We love Tanuki! My kids have a lot of fun and have learned a lot this year at the kids BJJ classes. The kids class looked like so much fun so I started attended the adult BJJ classes and can't get enough! It's a welcoming, encouraging and fun place to train!
