Youth Sports Programs and Academic Tutoring in Brentwood, CA

Our Purpose:

At Scholars Academy, our members are united by a singular, motivating purpose: To Make Our Parents Proud.

Whether you are a student, mentor, or coach, the objective is the same—to give your absolute best in every endeavor. In a world where giving 100% is often rare, we take pride in challenging ourselves to rise above the ordinary and strive for excellence in everything we do. This commitment to hard work isn’t just about winning; it’s about continuously pushing ourselves to reach our full potential. Each day presents an opportunity to grow, learn, and refine our skills, not only in martial arts but in how we approach life’s challenges.


At Scholars Academy, success is not defined by victory alone, but by the effort and determination we bring to the process of improvement. While we aim to excel in every competition, we recognize that true mastery comes from embracing both triumphs and setbacks. We encourage our members to approach every experience—whether winning or losing—as a valuable lesson. This mindset fosters resilience, patience, and humility, qualities that are essential for personal growth and long-term success.


Our ultimate goal is to cultivate scholars in their chosen disciplines—individuals who are not only skilled but also thoughtful, disciplined, and reflective. The lessons learned through competition, teamwork, and perseverance extend far beyond the mat. They prepare our members to handle life’s obstacles with confidence and grace, equipping them with the tools needed to succeed in all areas of life. At Scholars Academy, we understand that growth is a continuous journey, and we are committed to supporting our members as they develop into well-rounded individuals who can tackle any challenge, both inside and outside the academy.


By fostering a community where dedication, hard work, and learning from both success and failure are valued, we create an environment where our members can thrive. Together, we aspire to achieve greatness—not just in our athletic pursuits, but in becoming the best versions of ourselves.

My son LOVES Scholars Academy! He has done soccer and t-ball in the past, but he could never focus and there wasn't any structure. We did a free trial at Scholars Academy and Mr. Baker and his employees were amazing! My son loves going there and is always pushing to be the *kid of the day.* Mr. Baker is firm with the kids which is exactly what my son needed. His confidence has grown so much!

My boys love the Scholars Academy. They are able to stay focused and have fun though the entire class. Although we are fairly new they are already striving to do better and better in each class. It's a great welcoming environment where not only do you see kids excited to attend their classes but you also see more kids doing their homework and reading then on electronic devices!!!! It's soo refreshing!

Scholars Academy is amazing! Mr. Baker puts so much quality time and effort into each and every child. He is an amazing role model, instructor and educator! Our son has grown so much in so many ways here and is gaining so much confidence! It's hands down the best place for your child to be. The Delta Life a year ago I have 2 Children who train with Mr.Baker. You wont find a better Instructor and Tournament Coach that cares for each and every one of his Students like his own. He doesn't want your Children to be just strong in body but strong in mind. Not caring just for their skills as a Martial Artist, but to grow with Respect & Character.

I feel like Bruce Lee because every time Mr. Baker teaches new techniques he teaches it so well that even as a beginner you'd look and feel like a pro.

Mr. Baker is hands down the best tutor anyone could ask for! Sadly, our daughter doesn’t get to see him anymore because we moved out of state but we all still value the lessons he shared.

Training Mind & Body

What do you hope to achieve in your free time? Are you looking to improve your physical fitness, boost your confidence, relieve stress, enhance your focus, or acquire a new set of skills? If you answered yes to any of these, then you’ve come to the right place. At Scholars Academy, we proudly offer the people of Brentwood and surrounding areas a welcoming environment where they can prioritize their health, have fun, and take a much-needed break from the outside world.


One common misconception is that joining a martial arts academy like Scholars Academy means you’ll be required to spar, which can sometimes deter people from exploring the benefits of martial arts. However, this is far from the truth. Sparring is entirely optional and is reserved for those who wish to engage in it. Our programs are designed to meet you where you are, whether your goal is to stay fit, de-stress, develop mental discipline, or simply meet new people in a positive and encouraging setting.


At Scholars Academy, we offer much more than physical training—we provide a holistic approach to self-improvement. Our classes cater to all levels, whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced martial artist. By joining us, you’ll not only develop your body but also your mind, gaining skills that can enrich your daily life. So if you're in the Brentwood area and are looking for a way to stay fit, connect with like-minded individuals, and invest in your personal growth, we invite you to contact us today and try one of our classes.
