Studio City Martial Arts

Studio City Martial Arts operates at 12418 Ventura Blvd in Studio City, California. Led by owner Sensei Bryan alongside lead instructor Sensei Ron Lazo, the dojo is dedicated to the practice and study of Ten-Chi-Wa Tai-Jutsu. Drawing from traditional Japanese Samurai and Ninja martial disciplines, the school focuses on self-defense, joint manipulation, and physical awareness without sport competition or sparring. Instruction emphasizes non-aggressive defensive principles grounded in the preservation of life. Students train in escapes, rolls, body movement, and pressure point applications passed down through classical patterns. The dojo provides structured belt progression programs that encourage discipline, patience, and mutual respect among students. Offerings include the Junior Tai-Jutsu Program, Junior Senpai Leadership Program, Adult Fundamental Program, Adult Traditional Program, and Certified Instructor Training Program. Both youth and adult students benefit from targeted instruction adapted to their individual progression pace. Community members in Studio City can contact the dojo by email to arrange a trial class appointment.
