I've attended this dojo for several months after commiting to pursuing a life-goal to be a martial artist.

He's extremely respectful, with a balance of attention to each student's goals and persistent movement toward fitness and advancement.The adult class is three days a week, and I've never had any problem with communication, flexability or feeling uncomfortable.I highly recommend this business for adults, youth, any skill level.

Great community, friendly participants!

Mr. Greg is an amazing instructor. Here are USSD Burlingame you've got to earn your rank and your belt. Don't be fooled by other karate schools that hand out belts and trophies every week.

My daughter has gained so much confidence, self defense skills and life skills since joining USSD Burlingame. Mr. Greg is a strict, funny, knowledgeable, tough and one of the kindest human beings I've ever met in life. When you join USSD Burlingame you're not just taking karate or self defense classes, you're joining a family. We will welcome you as one of our own, and teach you to defend yourself from this crazy world we live in today. Thank you Greg for all that you do for the children and for our family. Less

We live super close by and my son always admired this place in his stroller every time we walked by! Fast forward a few years and he is now proudly attending Greg’s classes. Needless to say, he is loving it! Greg is very friendly yet disciplined, teaching kids not just martial arts but independence and manners. He also knows how to push them without intimidating them. Highly recommended!! 👍... More

My daughter has thrived as a student of Greg's for almost 2 years. He is an amazing teacher and guide, with a constant focus on safety. He's incredible at balancing between the required instruction, while also coaching them to be responsible and respectful individuals. He cares SO much for each and every student and is very focused on their development, regardless of the experience or skill level... More

We started one child at USSD 3 years ago - and were so impressed with the focus, confidence, respect for rules and standards, and physical training Master Greg and his team provided, that we signed another one of his brothers up as well.

We started one child at USSD 3 years ago - and were so impressed with the focus, confidence, respect for rules and standards, and physical training Master Greg and his team provided, that we signed another one of his brothers up as well. We couldn't be happier with Greg as a caring and attentive teacher, the clean facilities, fun extra activities (movie nights, open houses, halloween parties, etc.) and award-wining excellence of the Burlingame team. They regularly place in the top 1 or 2 in NorCal competitions - and the kids love the Forms, and Sparring competitions, progressing through the Belts, and their bookshelves covered in REAL trophies (not 'everybody participated') awards.

Couldn't be more happy with Mr Greg and USSD in Burlingame! Thanks to Mr Greg- my son has built his confidence/ strength and courage.

I'm so happy I found USSD Burlingame. Mr. Greg and Ms. Monica are incredibly passionate and giving of their time. I couldn't ask for better instructors. My son has been going for past 3 months and i have noticed that he is more confident, stronger and focused. More importantly he has noticed and enjoys the challenges. Thanks USSD!

Also, if you haven't tried the Adult Self Defense Class on Tuesday and Thursday nights at 8:30, you should. You will learn techniques, but you will also get a great cardio work out with Mr. Greg's warm up circuit training. Less
