Fitness Kickboxing in Santa Barbara

“Increíble team i really recommend this gym. They make sure you're on track with your goals.”

“Finding a gym or yoga studio I actually enjoy spending time in has been a struggle. Not so at Santa Barbara Dojo. When I came in with questions, the staff was friendly, responsive, and informative. The vibe in the studio is generally welcoming and positive. The classes are structured and the teachers regularly check in with students both new and old to explain technique. There is so much energy in the room on a typical day that it is impossible not to break a sweat. In 6 weeks, I lost about 4.5% body fat and regained a significant amount of strength. I made a lovely set of gym buddies for the days I need a gym buddy to get me to the mat... highly recommend.”

“I usually hate going to gyms. But Santa Barbara Dojo is different! First of all, you really feel like family. They truly care about their members and their health. Secondly, the classes are great, packing maximum fitness into 45 minutes. Karina, Enrique and Christian, the three instructors I see most, are encouraging and incredibly knowledgeable. Also, unlike many other gyms and classes, there's not much of a barrier to entry. Never done kickboxing before? No worries. Start kicking and hitting the bag following your neighbors, and everyone will help you improve. You may not get as good as some of the blackbelts, but they are incredibly inspiring! And even the blackbelts get a good workout--you make the class what you want to get what you want out of it. I even get out of bed at 5:30 am 3x a week for these classes. I feel fit and healthy thanks to Santa Barbara Dojo!”

“The best place in town! It's a great place and everyone there keeps you fit and happy. Who would ever guess that kicking and punching would be so loving?”

“you know what I love? Hardworking small businesses who work hard to educate and help people. You know what I hate? #1 Yelp removing legitimate reviews from people who may not yelp a lot but are so impressed by a business that they do. #2 People that expect perfection when there isn't such a thing. The people who don't recognize hard work and dedication but prefer to cowardly write bad reviews instead of bringing their complaint to the business its self. #3 Reviewers who think they are paid to scrutinize every aspect of a business they couldn't possibly imaging what it takes to run and run well. I could care less about these long uneducated reviews, I rely on my own experience and I will say once again this is a”

“Im on week five of consistently showing up to class throughout the week and I absolutely love this place!! I've seen such amazing results. Everyone is so kind and encouraging, hands down the best workout experience I've encountered.”
