2018-02-13T17:38:28-05:00

XMA is a fusion of all martial arts styles, blended together with performance arts, high-flying kicks, and tons of action! At the basic levels, XMA is a non-violent, performance based program. XMA (Xtreme Martial Arts) signifies the transition of martial arts from the traditional towards the contemporary.

XMA Class Components include Warm Ups, Basics (punches, blocks, kicks), Forms, Xtreme Kicking Combinations, Weapons Training, Sparring, Plyometrics, Presentation and Performance, [...]

2018-02-13T17:40:06-05:00

Our Black Belt Training Level 2 program stresses the importance of spiritual and mental growth alongside with advanced curriculum. Students now begin using their traditional weapons in their synchronized patterns which help them hone their skills and proficiencies at this higher level. An important component of the advanced level training is to improve the students confidence and control through safe and exciting sparring exercises using partners within their class.

How many classes are required per week?

2018-01-22T13:45:20-05:00

With the exception of our Kickboxing program, all other students are required to attend any 2 classes per week of their choice.  With classes ranging from 4 to 7 choices per week, almost all families are able to incorporate a consistent amount of training into their everyday lives and schedules. Less than twice per week is ineffective for learning and growing in the proper way.  More than twice a week can also lead to students feeling tired or over scheduled.  Although students are able to come to extra classes if needed, we strongly recommend that all students attend exactly 2 classes [...]

How old do you have to be to start karate?

2018-01-22T13:44:32-05:00

Although we understand that many families are eager to start their little ones in classes as soon as possible, our many years of experience and research have taught us that students at age 5 learn best through their martial arts training, not any younger.  We recognize that while some 3 or 4-year-olds may be well beyond their years, it is undeniable the mental, social and physical growth which occurs once a child enters into full day academics.  This formal teaching structure at school allows us to support the interactive and tightly knit network of home, school and family learning.  Our minimum [...]

What does karate actually teach?

2018-01-22T13:43:49-05:00

Karate teaches way more than just punching and kicking.  Although martial arts are known for their kicking, blocking, striking, defense and movements; there is an equally important focus in mental and spiritual development. We believe that a healthy successful student practices the betterment of their mind, body and spirit as one.  These life lessons and principle based teachings help grow students to be value adding community members that help support not only one another but also the people around them.  Our goal is to bring out the black belt in all students, not just on the mat, but in life.

Isn’t karate exclusively boy’s/guy’s sport?

2018-01-22T13:42:14-05:00

Our deepest wish for anyone with this question is to simply come and view a class of their choice.  Across the board, classes are almost evenly split between male and female students.  In many classes, the student demographic changes regularly, allowing a healthy balance of all students and genders. As part of our creed, we pledge to help all students regardless of age, gender, background or differences.  That's what makes each individual unique as a student and why we pledge to treat every family and student with equal and unyielding respect.

Is karate safe?

2018-01-22T13:40:51-05:00

Martial Arts is commonly confused with the fighting and action movie dramatizations of the film world. Karate is very safe and the most common injuries we see in students always happen outside the studio, not within. Students have all the best tools and equipment available to them to train hard, but in a safe and supportive environment. Students at the younger ages come in no physical contact with one another at all. As students grow through the programs, much like the adult training, they have the opportunity to learn best practices and safe sparring and defensive techniques which simulate actual usage [...]
