One of the things parents appreciate most about our classes is the improvement in their child's self-discipline. We have a wonderful 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.

Martial arts are so popular because no other activity can provide the same results as martial arts for each individual participant. Whether your goals are self-confidence, self-defense, personal development, fitness, flexibility or to earn a black belt, our school will take you there.

Parents today are recognizing that the public school system is not enough. Millions of parents are bringing martial arts, into their children’s lives to supplement their education. Carleton University, in a study reported in Psychology Today (January 1985), found that children in martial arts have a lower level of anxiety; an increased sense of responsibility; a decrease in the willingness to take foolish risks; a higher sense of self-esteem; higher level of social intelligence; and were less likely to be radical.

Martial arts are not like team sports because the emphasis is on developing the individual's self-esteem not the team's winning record. The belt system is the key. When kids earn their belts it gives them a great sense of accomplishment that really improves the way they feel about themselves.

Many doctors actually prescribed our school for treatment because of the positive outlet it gives the kids for all their energy.

We believe confidence is one of the most important things we can give kids. That’s why every class we teach has confidence-building drills included.

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 sister, or neighbor.

Our adult students really appreciate the differences between martial arts training and standard exercise programs.

Martial arts like an exercise program with a bonus! You learn to defend yourself while you get in shape.

Martial arts are well known for its stress relieving benefits. The emphasis on mind-body training goes far beyond the benefits of standard, health club type exercise programs.

I think the confidence building part of our program is what students appreciate the most. Nothing can take the place of the security in knowing that you can defend yourself, if you have to.

At our school, everything we teach is reality based. Our instructors work very hard to insure that most any situation you might encounter is covered in the classroom under very safe learning conditions, so you will be prepared.

The reason our program is so successful is because we make the classes fun and exciting. We learned a long time ago that if people are having fun, they learn much faster.

We a have number of different programs to offer even the busiest students. From our martial arts for children and pre-school classes to our martial arts fitness, and black belt programs we have a program for everyone.

Rather than tell you about our championships and black belt rankings, we prefer to focus on our students. Certainly, we’re proud of our instructor’s accomplishments. But, we’re more proud of the achievements of our students. Our instructors understand that the student’s individual progress is the most important focus of their attention. That’s why our instructors continue to be students themselves. They take classes, attend seminars and continually work to improve their ability to help our students reach their goals.
