Live your own health insurance plan!  Build strength, endurance, flexibility, agility, and range of motion, while learning essential skills for life.

PURPOSE

In our view, motivation and leadership means nothing if it is not balanced by compassion.  That’s why we keep our core values strong and practice what we preach.

TRANQUILITY

The effectiveness of our art might make you think we’re about overpowering others or using force.  Quite the opposite. We develop our inner tranquility and discover the power that follows

TESTIMONIALS

This Place is Incredible

This place is incredible! I found it through an amazing women’s self defense class that was offered to the community–by donation, and in collaboration with two other dojos. I was very impressed with the focus on intuition and self-awareness, and knew immediately that I wanted my child to be a part of the community as well. I’m so glad I made that decision! The focus on self-awareness and service are fantastic. The sense of community. The comprehensive approach to training, which includes a plethora of videos and activities to do at home and extend the learning beyond the dojo. I can’t say enough good things about Sean, Nesta, and the whole Kasumi Mountain team!

– Diana Alexajandra, School Teacher: Dojo Member and Dojo Parent

Fantastic Dojo!

Budo Mountain is a fantastic dojo. A great place to learn how to make martial arts a part of your life. Sean and Nesta not only know what they’re doing when it comes to fighting, but also when it comes to helping people, both children and adults, grow and learn more about their own bodies. Highly recommended! – Autumn Robinson, Co-Owner of RMA Karate, Private Dojo Student

Personal Attention

The Ninja Kids program is awesome! My son has been part of it for about a year and half now and has enjoyed every moment of the experience. It challenges him in the best of ways, not only physically but mentally and spiritually as well. Sensei Sean and Sensei Nesta are an incredible team and work so well with the children. I like the smaller class setting and I feel that my son is receiving an ample amount of personal attention. It has been a joy to watch him blossom in this martial arts practice, and I look forward to staying with this dojo for a long time to come!
