Red Dragon Martial Arts

Red Dragon Martial Arts is the best! The owners Steve Nugent and Matt Hashimoto take a personal interest in your development and in getting to know you. Not only is Northern Shou Shu the most comprehensive and effective martial art around, every single person there treats you like family.The studio has seen me through recovery from a triple fusion in my cervical (neck) area, never pushing me beyond the point of safety. I never have to hide who I am or what I'm going through when I walk through those doors. The people who I now refer to as my brothers and sisters have helped me immensely...like the times I lost both of my parents. When I didn't know what to do with myself during intense grieving periods, I went into the studio. They helped me channel my grief into my art and it was a place of great refuge, healing and amazing productivity. There were times when I had tears in my eyes, but nobody made me feel weird about it, they are all Uber accepting and empathetic - not to mention incredibly skilled. I recently earned my brown belt and now my eyes are pointed toward my black belt. I have every faith that under the patient, skilled guidance and rock-solid leadership at Red Dragon Martial Arts my instructors will take me there! I've had job offers in different parts of the country and not taken them because there's no way I'm leaving the school and it's awesome team!If you and your family are looking for a place where there are great people and a magnificent martial art, you really should look no further. But if you do sample other studios, you will learn for yourself... Red Dragon is the best around!

I have done martial arts most of my life. My longest stint was in Tang Soo Do (16 years), but I've dabbled in plenty of other martial arts. This one though! If you think you know anything about fighting or martial arts, come test yourself here, because you might learn (as I did) that you still have A LOT to learn. Love Love Love it here. Love how friendly and helpful the instructors are. Weekly personal lessons are free with your monthly price. If you want to learn truly how to be a martial arts master, this is the place to be!

Great school for learning a practical self-defense martial art. You won't feel intimidated learning in this environment. And, if you get yourself through the door and start training with the black belts here, you'll soon find that you're capable of generating more power than you ever thought you could. This is a fine place to learn effective self-defense for kids, teens, and adults.

I have the pleasure of training here several times during specially-sponsored seminars. This Northern Shou Shu is always a joy to come and visit, when I'm in the area.Great ego-free environment with all the senior instructors being ready and willing to help every student, regardless of rank or experience. With having numerous black-belt level senior instructors, the school has the unique ability to have resources for all students.I strongly encourage you to give Seven Beasts Martial Arts an opportunity to earn your patronage. If you do, you will be hooked!

My son and I started training there two and a half years ago. I was 55 years old when I started. With weak knees and other issues. The instructors are very supportive and very accessible. Every one of the black belts is generous in sharing their knowledge and talent. I progress at my own pace, with nobody pushing me to rush through each level and earn all the belts. But they push me to improve over time. To be better than last time. Over that time I've improved in strength, flexibility, balance and confidence. That confidence helps me relax on the light rail, on the street, or in crowds. It's also affordable. Whether you are young or old I can recommend it wholeheartedly.

I love this gym! I love the style! I love the people! I am brand new and I am overwhelmed by the friendliness and support. I can't get enough of this place. I truly feel that I will be going here forever.

I find myself in the area often enough and I wanted to learn something different. I checked out a few other places and settled on Red Dragon. The atmosphere is nice and the people are genuine. I appreciate everyone's patience since I'm a total newbie. If you're concerned about being embarrassed, don't. They take the time to make sure you learn rather than just going through the motions.

Top quality instruction, with a very welcoming atmosphere for men and women of all ages. If you are interested in learning a martial art that will teach you self-defense, this is it. I highly recommend Red Dragon Martial Arts. You won't be disappointed.

I was interested in martial arts training and checked out a few schools in the Sac area. S.B.M.A. hands down, was the most welcoming, no pressure enviroment I had found. I am on my way to my black belt!
