KRYSTEK SCHOOL OF JUDO, BJJ, SELF-DEFENSE & FITNESS
The Krystek School of Judo, BJJ, Self Defense & Fitness was founded in 1968 by Sensei Jack Krystek. We're deeply rooted in tradition, based on continuous evolution. Whatever your goals may be, we provide a wide variety of services to help you achieve them.
Look forward to enjoying the benefits of enhanced physical fitness, increased concentration, motivation, self-esteem, and overall well-being.
We teach only small, semi-private, and private classes. In a safe, clean and friendly environment. Every student receives the instructor's attention.
This place is the best. I've been training there for over 10 years and now my kids train there. The senseis are terrific, patient and knowledgeable and you can really tell they absolutely love the sport and sharing that knowledge. It's more like a family than a school and nothing is more important than the students.

Krystek is amazing! Sensei is dedicated, caring, knowledgeable, and driven. He wants all of his students to reach their goals and beyond. He sees the best in everyone, and brings out the best in them. I’ve witnessed him working with 3 year olds to people in their 60s. His teaching style is flexible and dynamic. I can’t tell enough people to join the school and take all of his classes! He has changed my life and the lives of so many that I know!

I've been a member of the school since 1992, and I can tell you both Jack Sr. & Jack Jr. have respectably serviced the community since the 1960's. As a student for over 25 years the respect, honesty and dedication the family has towards all the students is very rarely found at this level. They teach adults and children as young as 4 years old not only about martial arts but about creating a better person. I can truly state I would not be where I am today if not for the many years of education at this establishment. One of the great aspects of the school is the work both Sr. and Jr. put in with the children, they are very hands on with the classes. They are more than willing to work individually with everyone, unlike most martial arts schools you are made to feel comfortable and at home. They treat ALL members like family with a dedicated approach to hard work and constructive learning. No matter your skill level they are able to bring out the best in your ability. Actually the most important thing in all of this is it's FUN to be apart of, you want to go to class and continue improving. Take notice of the variety in class types from self defense to cardio based. Highly recommend to anyone.

Nowhere else better to train. Sensei Jack , Jack Jr, and Frank are the most friendly approachable, knowledgeable, and uplifting people. Any time you have a bad day and come here after is an automatic mood changer. No matter your athletic talent, physical shape, and goals, this is the place for you. Learning from one the of best and experienced judokas in the world always helps. No matter what your goal is, coming here will make you a better person in the physical and mental form. Highly recommended, and you will not be disapointed.
