Started practicing at NJJ in late February 2022. After more than a couple of months my experience has been excellent with a fantastic group of guys all looking to learn and share their experience practicing judo. Sensei Ramon Hernandez and his family of master judokas have provided very valuable coaching for me to feel comfortable getting back into this sport. Being at an older age and trying to stay healthy is a challenge but sensei Hernandez is very diligent on keeping people within their physical limitations an easing you into the techniques. Overall the benefits have not only been physically but also mentally. My job is in a very high stress environment and I am pretty sure that the discipline and focus required to learn and practice this martial art have contributed to a balance in my approach to problems both personally and professionally. Would recommend this dojo and sport to anyone wanting to improve their mental and physical conditioning.

Place is amazing, just started and I already feel welcomed. Ramon isn't hesitant to help you improve or check in to make sure everything is good every once in a while. Thats something you can't find anywhere else. And that set the standard that everyone abides by.

Ramon is a great instructor and has created an awesome community for anyone looking to be part of high level school. The classes are friendly to new comers and experienced alike. The kids classes are great for kids of all ages and levels. It is high level judo that focuses on technique with some of the best practitioners in the state.

I first started training at North Jersey Judo back in 2012. As a young, and very awkward, teen the skills Ramon taught me were invaluable for my development in athletics and martial arts. Looking back after 10 year of training in other disciplines North Jersey Judo still is at the top of my list. Ramon makes it a point to not only demonstrate top level Judo techniques, but also describes applications for BJJ & MMA. To this day I still make it a point to stop by whenever i’m in the area.

Amazing place to learn the art of judo

North Jersey Judo is the Best!! Sensi Ramon and his team are committed to bringing out the best in everyone. He does such a great job at instructing and caring for the well being for all his students. I highly recommend North Jersey for those looking to learn and compete in the sport of Judo and also those that are looking to stay in shape and learn a new skill. Thanks Sensi Ramon!!!

North Jersey Judo is a fabulous dojo to train at all levels... novice to black belt! Sensei Ramon Hernandez is one of the best teachers in the area, and also created a culture where all feel welcomed.

I highly recommend north jersey judo and wish I had started sooner! I use to wrestle and tried different martial arts classes but none had the aura that north Jersey judo had. The first time I walked inside I felt welcomed and encouraged to get in and get a hands on feel. Ramon cares for the safety of everyone which is calming to know especially when you are brand new. He will take his time and show you the proper techniques and does so with professionalism. I still have a long way to go in the world of Judo but I'm happy to know that Ramon will be the one to show me what it's all about.

My 5yr old son loves NJ Judo. Ramon is great with the kids. It's a great workout physically and mentally. Looking forward to continuing as he gets older.
