Trish Adora comment:
“There is truly no experience like training at the NJPW Academy. As I have traveled and trained all across the world, being able to sit under the learning tree of KUSHIDA, Rocky Romero and Fred Rosser has been completely transformative! My confidence in my abilities has skyrocketed! Being immersed within the traditional Japanese training style has sharpened my techniques and cardiovascular endurance. I’m on a totally new level now! Everywhere I go, I can feel the respect growing in my peers. I am very proud to represent the NJPW LA Dojo as my continued training there fuels my overall love for the sport!”
