Children's Program (Age: 6 - 12 years)

A psychological study found that children in martial arts have an increased sense of responsibility, a decrease in willingness to take foolish risks, and a higher sense of self-esteem. This is why millions of parents are using martial arts to supplement their children’s education.

Our belt system works as in indicator of the student's knowledge, skill, and attitude. Students will not receive a belt simply because they show up to class and are well behaved, they must earn their rank.

We have trained staff of patient instructors who love to work with children, but are also very clear about limits. We enforce good rules of behavior in class, and we expect the same good behavior at home and in school.

Our program teaches practical, proven self-defense methods. We also teach the kids that the moves they learn in class will work, so they don’t go home and try them on their family members or neighbors.



Teen & Adult Program

Martial arts classes are well known for their stress relieving benefits. The emphasis on mind-body training goes far beyond the benefits of standards, health club type exercises.

There is something for everyone. Each of our instructors bring their best aspects to class, making sure there's never a dull moment.
