Learn JuJitsu in West Hempstead, New York | Popkin Brogna Jujitsu Center

I never imagined my daughters or myself would get so much more out of the Dojo. It is not just a center to learn JuJitsu, it is also a place where the owners and staff sincerely care about you and your children. When someone says they go above and beyond you literally grasp that concept here. You learn the art of Ju Jitsu and respect, confidence, discipline. You also learn the pros and cons of parenting. It's not about the things you do wrong but how to better the skills you have. Everything is positive whether it is said to you or your children. The learning experiences are endless. And it is all done respectfully by the Dojo. Due to our scheduling, we have not been there but they keep in touch with me to see how my children are doing. And trust me they do not need my membership. I am forever grateful for their compassion. This kind of relationship they develop with the families that come in are priceless. I always tell the owners what can I do to pay it forward because what they have done for our family is amazing.

We love this place! I signed my 6 yr old daughter up last December and she has really thrived here. She started at the UFC gym doing Brazilian Jujitsu there but the class sizes were just too big with only one instructor and I felt she needed a place that the instructors can give her a little bit more one on one time if she needed corrections. The instructors here are very knowledgeable and really great with the kids. They also have parent/child class which my daughter and I participate in 2x a week. It helps me learn some of the techniques they are learning so we can practice at home. I highly recommend this school!

From the moment we entered the dojo for the first time, we were greeted like family. My girls have learned so much, both on the mat and off. They have been taught technique, strength training, and personal goals and values. There have been lessons in discipline which extend to home and school. I couldn't be happier with all of the senseis and sempais. The Senseis encourage the parents to speak to them about any and all issues your child may be having and they work with them to help in any way they can. They follow through on their lessons. They even contacted me when my child was sick to see how she was doing! They certainly care about their students!

We just had our son’s birthday party there and it was beyond outstanding! All the kids had a great time and even the parents got involved for a game of dodge ball! They even provide invitations, decorations and goodie bags! All we had to bring was the cake! The smile on our son’s face throughout the party said it all! We couldn’t have asked for anything more. We are truly grateful for being apart of this family and wouldn’t give it up for anything. So if you’re looking for a place for your children to have a great time learning martial arts and valuable life lessons Popkin-Brogna Jujitsu Center is definitely the place to go!

My 4 year old daughter started at the dojo less than a month ago. I never expected to see results so quickly! From the second we walked in, my shy and anxious daughter was chatting up a storm with Sensei Steve and Sempai Stephanie. She sat and observed the other children the first day and by the second she jumped right in. I have never seen my daughter so excited about an activity; she asks to go every day, even on the weekends. This has actually brought tears to my eyes! As a social worker who specializes in young children, I have been extremely impressed with all of the staff. My daughter is learning skills such as impulse control, having higher self-esteem, discipline, social skills and so much more. Between the pictures, the videos and the educational FB lives the PPJJC community shares, I am proud to be a member of the family.

The teachers here are highly trained! You won’t find teachers with the level of skill, attentiveness, kindness, and caring anywhere else! Highly recommend!

My boys have been going for years to the dojo. They are friendly and make the kids feel like part of a community. Great schedule with weekend classes for working parents.
