For any martial artist looking for the real deal, this is your place to train. Forget the fly-by-night glitz and glamour of fast-food practice halls. The Sandia Budokan is good, traditional training in an appropriate atmosphere. Having trained around the world, I have found this to be the dojo to come to in the United States. Accept no substitutes.
