Muay Thai/ Kickboxing:



Muay Thai/Kickboxing is the national sport of Thailand. Muay Thai is one of the best sports for physical conditioning. Our students learn to move fluently between kicking, punching, knee, elbow, and clinching ranges. This is not a cardio kickboxing class!  Whether your goal is to compete, to gain some practical self-defense skills, or just to become fit, our program can help you to reach your goals.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu:



Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting with the goal of gaining a dominant position from which to force an attacker to submit. It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person using leverage and proper technique can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger assailant. BJJ can be trained for self defense, sport grappling tournaments (with the uniform or not) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition.

Mixed Martial Arts:




Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is the most demanding of the fighting sports, the ultimate testing grounds for all the technique, strength, and endurance you have acquired in Muay Thai/Kickboxing and BJJ/Submission Wrestling.

You’ll learn that the real challenge in our MMA Program is to know when to apply the best fighting technique of each individual style in situations where you won’t know in advance which combat technique your opponent is about to use. You’ll discover the best kept secret about MMA, the best fighting competitors know how to use their mind as much as they use their technique.

BJJ Kids Classes:


BJJ (Monday through Thursday) : 4:30 – 5:30




What is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?


Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is an incredible self-defense system based on the principals of technique and leverage, which allows the practitioners to defeat opponents of much greater size and strength. So you don’t have to be a big, fast or young to be an effective fighter. It was made for real street fighting.

Why Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?


95% of all fights end up on the ground! What if you have to protect yourself against someone who is bigger, stronger and hits harder than you? If you simply try to exchange punches and kicks you might not stand a chance! What if they muscle you to the ground and start pounding on you? Bad news if you’ve never learned Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which can effectively defeat an aggressive assailant using ground grappling techniques.

Would it benefit my child?


Absolutely! Jiu-Jitsu which means gentle art, emphasizes the use of technique and leverage. So your child won’t have to rely on size, strength or speed. Also, learning to defend them selves and subdue their opponent in a safe and humane way without having to rely on kicks and punches if not necessary.

Your child will develop physical awareness of balance, reflexes, flexibility and coordination. As well as building on the mental aspects of the personality such as self-esteem, discipline, confidence, compassion and good work ethic. The classes are taught in a positive, fun and friendly manner, so your child will enjoy learning the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
