From the reviews
My husband has been training at Legacy for about a year. I was finally able to make it to a class recently and was very impressed by the facility, but what really stood out to me was how family-oriented the gym was. While I was there I had the opportunity to meet the gym owner, Alberto, and his wife.
I can’t say enough good things about Legacy Jiu-Jitsu! My son has been training here for almost a year, and the impact on his confidence, social skills, and overall attitude has been incredible. The instructors focus on much more than just technique—they teach discipline, respect, and perseverance.
This place is great! I’ve been training here for a little over a year and I can’t speak more highly of it. Fantastic community, great teachers, very clean, and tons of amenities for different types of workouts! I’ve grown stronger, more diligent, more confident, and learned an amazing martial art!
I'm from NorCal and while on a family trip I decided to drop in for a Tuesday evening intermediate gi class. I definitely made a good decision in choosing to come to this location as the facility is set up very nicely and the staff and students were very welcoming.
New to taekwondo? Start at Legacy Burbank
Legacy Burbank comes up as a beginner-friendly school — noted on their own site. If you've never trained or set foot in a dojang, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and instructors scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable schools build fundamentals (stances, blocks, kicks, and basic forms) for weeks, sparring eases in gradually and with gear on, and instructors keep it controlled and safe. Third, all ages and all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most schools are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first taekwondo class at Legacy Burbank
Nervous about walking into a taekwondo school for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, and kicks with a partner or on pads — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: loose athletic wear you can move in (or a dobok if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the floor. What to bring: water and a positive attitude — many schools lend a loaner dobok for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll get your own dobok and belt, and sparring gear (mouthguard, headgear, and guards) once you begin sparring. Sparring eases in gradually, once your fundamentals and forms are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the instructor. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
