My daughter, 15, has been taking martial arts from Jason for a year. She enjoys it very much. She has learned discipline, strength, power, and agility. Sensei Jason has a Saturday strength training class she enjoys in addition to the weeknight classes.Sorrento Valley is a central location and Torrey Pines Martial Arts is a great fit for my daughter.

Jason is a fabulous teacher! He encourages the students to always do their best and have respect from themselves as well as others. My daughters confidence has improved tremendously in the past two years that she has been taking lessons. She has done so well that I have started to take lessons for myself! You just cant get any better than Jasons teachings!

Sensei Jason has been amazing in building confidence and getting our little guy so excited about doing the Martial Arts (hes only 4). First he was scared to go and not wanting to try new things, now he looks forward to karate and day and cant wait to work hard for his next belt. Super cool and gratifying to see him already striving for greatness :)

Excellent instruction from Sensei Jason who taught our womens self defense class. He gave us real life scenarios and instructions in how to handle them confidently. He was funny and engaging and made us all feel comfortable to be ourselves and be our best selves in his class. Highly recommended!

Jason is an amazing instructor, his enthusiasm for teaching and passion in sharing his skills is top notch. As a loving father with 2 kids of his own he can relate with other parents. As a natural born leader Jason has a knack in mentoring others to instill character development and leadership.

Best martial arts school! Master Sell and the other instructors really do care and do all they can to help their students move forward, reach their goals and be the best they can be. So glad I’m a part of it!

I really enjoy Sensei Jasons womens self defense classes. He not only teaches practical what to do in certain situations, but he has us learn various martial arts basics that keep me fit and prepare for an unlikely event when I may need to defend myself. His teachings of kickboxing moves also helped improve my golf game!

Jason is a humble professional instructor. The perfect person to help mold your childs self esteem or add flexibility and balance to a 50 something like me.

I started with Sensei Jason // Torrey Pines Martial Arts 10 years ago as a teenager and it completely changed my life.I used to struggle with my confidence, especially when it came to standing up for myself, and I used to be out of shape (and addicted to video games, couldnt focus in school, etc) as a kid -Thanks to the life lessons and self defense/martial arts training + conditioning I got from training with Jason over the last 10 years,Ive been able to completely transform my body, my mind, the way I show up in the world,And I can walk into any situation knowing I can handle myself,Ive developed laser like focus and discipline, while enjoying the process of getting there.Courage, confidence, stress relief, whenever Im in town I always stop by the dojo for a class as its truly become a second family for me,I dont know where Id be in life today if it hadnt been for Sensei Jason, I definitely wouldnt be as successful as I am today in my career, relationships, or body.If you are looking for a martial arts dojo, looking to learn to defend yourself, looking to get in shape, looking to connect with likeminded individuals who want to make the most out of life and be the best they can be, look no further as Jason is the greatest mentor and role model you will ever find for yourself, your kids, etc. in the martial arts.Not only is he a martial arts and fitness expert, he truly cares about you, your family, and bringing out your best.

Jason is a caring, thoughtful coach who not only cares about karate, he cares about you, you child and how they can succeed in life. Its awesome excercise. It also helps with eye / hand co-ordination and cardio. I highly recommend it from this studio.

My son loves it. Sensei Jason is a great teacher. He knows how to motivate the kids and keep them interested.

Both my kids boy and girl go here, my son just got his black belt in China, he went with Sensei Jason and about 6 more kids, it was a great experience.We love self defense with Sensei Jason, have been here for 8 years.

My 13 yo daughter has been going to USSD Del Mar since she was 5yo and my 9yo daughter since she was 6yo. Having been in more than one vulnerable situation earlier in my life and knowing that a split second can make the difference, I want the peace of mind that my girls have the skills to defend themselves should the occasion arise. Sensei Jason is a tough instructor and challenges them so I have the confidence knowing that their belts are earned and not just given as a token.

Jason is amazing with the kids, they are so much more confident and secure ever since they started working with him. Really in touch with whats most important for the children and his gruff demeanor is EXACTLY what you want in a kung-fu master.Were even thinking of attending some of his adult classes, weve heard great things from the other parents.

One of our sons learned martial arts at USSD with Jason in Del Mar. He started in 6th grade and went through the age of 15, then picked it up again in his later teens. Jason is THE BEST. I cannot was enough praises. And NO - no one is paying me to say this. He not only teaches martial arts, he MENTORS. He has your back as a parent and triple reinforces important life lessons. Not all kids walk a straight line when they are growing up. Even when parents set up the right guardrails. But USSD and especially Jason helps and cares A LOT. Martial arts, self-esteem, building character.

THE best and most personalized martial arts instruction you will find anywhere. I had trained at a number of different schools and disciplines before finding Sensei Jason and USSD Del Mar and was always frustrated by what was missing from the training. If you want real world practical training taught by someone who actually has that experience go no further than USSD Del Mar. Hes great with kids too!

USSD is amazing and Sensei Jason is very passionate teacher! He is incredible with kids as he is very hands on, teaches life long lessons and has a great personality which keeps you coming back!

My daughter was in this dojo during her middle school years. She was able to move up two belts through hard work. The Sensei, Jason, is enthusiastic and knows his stuff. My childs father had recently passed away and the leadership that the Sensei gave was powerful and positive. We fell in love with martial arts because we come from a line of soldiers and we were soldiers too, except my daughter. I recommend it because it teaches discipline, respect and community. Also, it was fun times and good exercise. They have many activities to do in the dojo. When my child wants to boast about her abilities she talks about how she pinned down a black belt. (Shes a big girl.) This is actual martial arts. They teach Shaolin, which is one of the best.

If you want the best Martial Arts training anywhere, this is the place to go.

My son has been attending USSD Del Mar for over a year now and not only is Sensei Jason a great martial artist, but he teaches my son values and builds his confidence like no other teacher or extra curricular program he has. Dont miss the chance to work with an amazing teacher of both the martial arts and life.

Best coach anyone could ask for.

My boys have been going to USSD for a few years now and greatly benefited.

Very accommodating in terms of scheduling
