Throughout history, Ronins were labeled as outcasts for going against social norms. When they would lose their Teacher/Master they were left with two options, Death or be labeled an outsider for the rest of your life. Many times this would force them to find new methods of training. They would study multiple styles to find what worked best for them. This led Ronins to often carrying more weapons than just the basic two swords. Despite being treated unfairly, being mocked, and being doubted many Ronins rose above the noise to become legendary figures that are still spoken of today. We believe in learning from multiple high level instructors, finding what works best for you, and adding it into your own personal style. Our instructors have been guided by the styles and teachings of Jamie Cruz (Cruz Control BJJ), Marcello Garcia, and Eddie Bravo’s 10th planet system. Our striking classes are led by American Strikers owner and Former Golden Gloves, Diamond Gloves, Interstate Champion, Don Cioffi. We welcome all skill levels from beginner and up. Come roll with the Ronins and become a part of something different.
