Where can I find a dojo in my area?

[Deven Roads]

I've checked the yellow pages and such but I can't find any martial arts that I want to join, but I've heard about places yet I don't know where they are. I was wondering if there was any site or anyway I can find a listing of ALL the dojos around where I live?(Minnesota)

Could you try typing in your city and your state plus "martial arts" on google? i.e. type in: "Sacremento, California martial arts."

Try the Yahoo Yellow pages, select your city, then search on "Martial Arts"

 

Or, try searching on yahoo itself with "city" and "Martial Arts"

 

be creative and search a bunch of different ways, be surprised what you find in your area.

 

Or, look for your local Martial Arts supply store, go in and ask the owner of the store. He/She should know of all the local dojo's and can point you to the ones that offer the style you are interested in.

This is a good site to learn about and search for Martial Arts and schools. Click on the "Looking for a school near you" link on the left. I hope this helps.

You shoud be able to find one easily. I'd start off by deciding what you want to take. Then go on the internet bring up google and type it in. You should be able to find diffren't dojos, look for the national and international ones.

Also check your local YMCA's and rec centers to see if they offer programs. Sometimes they have instructors who come in and run good programs without the added espense of a building.
