Traditional Martial Arts
Traditional Martial Arts classes build Confidence, Focus and Self-Esteem for all ages. Kids love the "ninja" moves, and parents love the Life Skills
Martial Arts is an excellent activity for children. They'll learn to defend themselves physically, but more importantly they'll build the mental and emotional skill sets necessary to conquer challenges like high school, college, and becoming a healthy, balanced adult.
Preschool age students have specific needs, from building a foundation of flexibility and coordination, to fostering confidence and listening skills. Our instructors know how to connect with and motivate younger children, so that they're setup for success for years to come.
Whether it's losing weight, building muscle, learning to defend yourself, or just having a blast, our Adult Martial Arts classes have what you need. You'll love the high energy class instruction, your body will love the awesome workout, and your spirit will love the camaraderie and positive atmosphere.
Therapeutic Martial Arts
Therapeutic Martial Arts help individuals who have neurodevelopmental challenges to go beyond their limits physically, mentally, and socially. Plus, they're a TON of Fun!
Although the majority of children with ADHD have typical intelligence, they frequently have behavioral, social, and emotional challenges. They have difficulty learning from their experience and cannot remember their routines and procedures, so they are often corrected.
Children with autism often engage in repetitive activities and stereotyped movements, resist environmental changes in daily routines, and display unusual responses to sensory experiences. We believe that autistic people can build the strengths, talents and abilities of many potentials.
Brain Injury
Individuals with TBI may be affected in many areas of their functioning, including physical, cognitive and academic, and emotional, behavioral, and social changes. However, they will benefit from the designed body movements to reconnect impaired brain functions.

How Often Should I Attend Class?
As much as you'd like! We see the most success with at least 2 classes per week. Because we have membership options with unlimited class attendance, many members are here 3-5 or even 6 days a week. That's not necessary but the more you attend, the better your results!

That entirely depends on your level of commitment, and how much you're enjoying classes. If you're a not sure yet that our classes are right for you, you're not required to stay for a period of time, but if you're loving it and have a goal of achieving Black Belt, we have programs that will get you there!
