TRANSFORM YOUR BODY & MIND

Traditional martial arts involves lots of different exercises and techniques that can work every muscle in your body, so you'll be sure to get a great workout. Plus, since it's a form of cardio, it can help you burn calories and get in shape.

TRAIN FOR REAL-LIFE THREATS

Our Traditional martial arts classes are more than just a way to stay fit and disciplined. They can also teach you the skills you need to defend yourself in real-life situations. By learning practical techniques like striking, grappling, and joint locks, you can gain the confidence and peace of mind to stay safe.

But self-defense isn't just about physical techniques. Our program also teach you the mental tools you need to recognize and avoid dangerous situations. You'll learn how to stay aware of your surroundings, assess potential threats, and stay calm and composed under pressure.

OUR MARTIAL ARTS STYLE

At our martial arts school, we are proud to teach American Tang Soo Do, a unique style that combines elements from various other martial arts, including Hapkido, Judo, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. This style was made popular by Chuck Norris, who brought it over from Korea and made it his own.

We have immense respect for the art and its history, and we work hard to preserve its traditional techniques while also incorporating other arts like Krav Maga and kickboxing.

By combining these different styles, we create a comprehensive training program that covers everything from traditional forms to grappling techniques. We believe in empowering our students with a well-rounded set of skills that will help them in any self-defense situation.

It's also the art that is practiced on the Netflix show Cobra Kai!
