JBJ
DOJO opened its doors at 11 South Meridian
Rd. in Kalispell Montana in June 1994 after having shared space at the Second
Wind Health club from September 1993. In June 2001 we bought a building and
moved our operation to our current location at 2449 Highway 2 West in
Kalispell. The JBJ Dojo is an alternative Martial Arts School. We teach an
ethical approach to living through Martial Arts training.
We teach in a non-competitive atmosphere emphasizing respect, tolerance,
discipline, positive attitude, and non-violence.
Training at the JBJ DOJO increases physical fitness while reducing
stress.
