Getting my first belt with Coach Justin was so rewarding. I had never experienced any martial arts training prior to starting in November. Since then I’ve trained with some of the most honorable and skilled coaches, with fellow fighters who have had years of diverse experiences and styles, and have an incredible time while burning heaps of calories. It feels so good to be in shape, to feel secure and strong in my own body and to know that if needed I could dominate an aggressor and escape. I plan to continue to progress with my belts and to be an outstanding example of feminine strength for my two little girls. LIFE CHANGING – THANK YOU ACADEMY!<\/p>\n

I am so grateful I found this place! My 4-year-old son goes there and he loves it so much. The coaches are amazing. They are super fun and at the same time discipline them, and teach them how to respect each other and everyone else and be kind. I am seeing so much change in my son so far especially with discipline. They have these work sheets for reading, discipline and healthy eating that parents fill, and kids get strips for their belts whenever they complete a certain number. My son is motivated to do so much now. I highly recommend it for any parent who wants his kids to be in martial arts because they are learning so much more here!<\/p>\n
Program & Pricing FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\nMy child isn’t athletic. Can he\/she still participate in martial arts?<\/h4>\n
Absolutely. Martial arts teaches kids to be coordinated, flexible and strong. Kids who don’t naturally have these qualities develop them. Kids who do have these qualities develop them even more.<\/p>\n
Are these martial arts classes fun?<\/h4>\n
Yes! After all, these are children we’re dealing with here. And kids love their fun. We do a variety of games and activities that have kids laughing and smiling. We work hard here – but we play just as hard.<\/p>\n
What’s a good age for a child to start martial arts?<\/h4>\n
Honestly, practically every age is a good age to start! We have young children, as well as teenagers. We also have specific programs for adults. So no matter what age – we’ve got you covered.<\/p>\n
Can martial arts cause injury?<\/h4>\n
Because we place such a huge focus on safety and injury prevention, we’re proud to say that injuries are very few and far between with our program. In fact, because martial arts gets you in great shape, and makes you strong and flexible, people often see LESS injuries in their lives.<\/p>\n
Do you have to be in good shape to take martial arts?<\/h4>\n
Not at all! In fact, many people use martial arts as a way to get in good shape. They come to us out of shape, and quickly become athletic and limber.<\/p>\n
Is martial arts violent?<\/h4>\n
No! Because self-defense technique is taught in martial arts, it’s often thought of as violent. However, the philosophies behind martial arts revolve around peace and harmony. The moves are more of a way to become connected with your body. We teach diplomacy and friendship. However, if a violent situation ever arises in your life, you’ll have powerful tools to defend yourself and your loved ones.<\/p>\n
