The Tenafly Dojo

Our beautiful new dojo at 83 North Summit Street is active all day long! From early morning KardioKickboxing and Yoga classes to evening training sessions for Karate students, there is something for everyone. You’ll instantly recognize that our warm and friendly environment is different than most martial arts schools. Our goal is not only to make you feel at home in our tranquil space, but also to make you feel like part of our family from the very first class you attend.

The facility is approximately 3200 square feet, with generous mat space to accommodate classes of all sizes and air conditioning to stay comfortable through the warm months. We have an inviting waiting area with video link to the class in session, and complimentary fresh coffee is always available so parents can relax and enjoy watching their children’s lessons without distraction. Inside the dojo, we maintain a strict “no shoes” policy, a traditional Japanese custom.

Roughly 450 students ranging in age from 3½ years old to Senior Citizens train with us. New students are always welcome, and will benefit from the range of experience found in each class. We are privileged to have many third and fourth Dans, who attend classes regularly and train alongside lower belts as well as share the responsibility of teaching classes with Sensei Gavin. All of our upper level black belts have spent many years studying with Sensei Kimura, and their experience is an immeasurable asset to the dojo and all who train here. A variety of classes are offered seven days a week: check our schedule links to find the classes that are right for you!
