We Train Here - Karate & Self-Defense - East Los Angeles, California

So glad we found this place... My kids absolutely love it. They just started last week 06/2018 and it's already starting to make a difference. The instructors are very detailed and extremely patient. Highly recommend this location.

6 months in 01/2019 and my kids have advanced to a PURPLE belt and currently working on their 1st degree BROWN. My kids have grown and blossomed as individuals during their tenure at We Train Here. I wanna personally thank Master Angel, O-Sensei Michael, Instructor Edward and Jr. Instructor Edwin for the dedication they have given the teaching of Martial Arts to my kids. I see the love for the arts every time we walk in the door, always being welcomed like family.

Above all, it is very affordable. I truly am grateful.

I had tried various dojos and different martial arts classes before deciding to train at We Train Here. I take the 7 pm class for adults. It has been a great experience, even for someone like me, who has never had any experience in karate. The instructors are patient, friendly, and knowledgeable; they really took the time to break down the moves since I had just started. I highly recommend this place.

Karate has been a great addition to my kids’ lives. Before starting classes, my daughter was very timid, always doubting her abilities and strength but since starting at We Train Here, she has come out of her shell. She refuses to give up and has recently received High Honors for her Purple Belt as well as a “Perseverance” patch. My son is a bit of a perfectionist and strives to perfect his techniques and Katas with the help and motivation of Master Angel, O-Sensei Michael, Instructor Edward and Jr. Instructor Edwin.

Seeing my children come into their own individuality since joining, has been a great experience to watch. I truly believe in this program and recommend it 100%. It is local and really affordable.

This place is excellent for training. Not only is it awesome to learn self-defense, but it is also fun with lots of working out. The sensei and junior master are both excellent and friendly instructors that will push you past your limits. It is also very affordable and clean. Definitely recommend coming here to train!

I have young grandkids that have been bugging me to bring them to a karate class. I found this place one day while I was headed in to do my taxes. What a gym. The instructors are friendly, trained and so good with the kids and while class is going on they engage you in conversation and even let you watch TV. The kids have a great time and The parents are never ignored. I can't belive you get all this for only 30 dollars a month. Even the uniforms are cheap. You have to kinda look for the place because it's on the second floor in the center but they are community and quality focused and definitely worth it. My grand kids are learning so much and are so much more respectful

My son has had the best experience at We Train Here. He is being instructed with the highest respect for the art form. The pupils are expected to focus and control their body movements. As a parent, I appreciate the discipline that my son is experiencing. Thank you to Sensei and Jr Master for having the patience and attitude to get my son to perform in ways I have never seen him perform.

I've been attending the Cardio Combat class and it's been great so far! I'm a beginner and they are great at modifying their classes so it fits all the participants' levels. I love the mixture of cardio and combat skills. Edward and Michael are very knowledgeable and patient. Thanks guys!
