| The '''Toad Town Dojo''' is a location in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. It is a part of [[Toad Town]] where [[Mario]] and the gang can practice their fighting skills against [[Chan]] (a [[Buzzy Beetle]]), [[Lee]] (a [[Duplighost]]), and [[The Master]] himself, a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] martial artist. Each battle earns a harder challenge and recognition. In fact, this is the same as battling [[Jinx]] (and [[Jagger]]) in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. | | {{PM Map}} |

| This is where Mario can earn the [[First-Degree Card|First]], [[Second-Degree Card|Second]], [[Third-Degree Card|Third]] and [[Fourth-Degree Card]]s as well as the [[Diploma]]. Despite the fact that [[Mario]] can face powerful optional bosses here, no reward (or even [[Star Point]]s) is given other than the aforementioned cards and diploma, as the battles are just a challenge. | | This is where Mario can earn the [[First-Degree Card|First]], [[Second-Degree Card|Second]], [[Third-Degree Card|Third]] and [[Fourth-Degree Card]]s as well as the [[Diploma]].

| During his adventure, Mario can meet three participants of the Dojo who each earned a degree:
| |
| # A Toad with yellow-green spots in Toad Town, just outside the Dojo, has a First-Degree Card.
| |
| # A [[Dryite]] with an orange tagelmust in [[Dry Dry Outpost]] has a Second-Degree Card.
| |
| # A [[Bumpty|penguin]] in [[Shiver City]], near the warp pipe, has a Third-Degree Card.
| |
| Each participant will give different remarks depending on Mario's ranking and will be amazed if Mario has a Diploma.
