Kickboxing

This course combines the best elements of Muay Thai, Karate, Filipino Kickboxing, and Western Boxing into one action packed workout. The first 20 minutes will consist of stretching and total body conditioning. The next 30 minutes we will work on street effective moves, including elbows, knees, kicks, and punch combinations. For the last 10 minutes, we will work on more exotic moves that will test your balance and coordination.


Arnis (Filipino Martial Arts)

Arnis is one of the most street effective martial arts around today. Our primary principle is that one technique can be used against the stick, knife, or empty hand. This way, we don't have to train three times as much. Arnis combines devastating elbows and knees, joint locks, and fast combinations. Like in Chess, you will learn to think two moves ahead of your opponent, so you can trap him with his own arm or weapon. For more info on Arnis, read our About Arnis Section.


KunTao Self Defense

Consider this course 60% Kickboxing and 60% Self-Defense (Yes, there is some overlap). After conditioning with devastating kickboxing combinations, we will work on joint locks, throws, and nerve strikes to debilitate your attacker, and practice real life situations where the techniques can be used effectively such as punches, pushes, grabs, or even knife, stick and gun attacks. This class will teach you to flow from your striking to your grappling and back so you know how to effectively use them together in a fight. Filipino Martial Arts are know for their fluidity of motion, so that a smaller defender can defeat a larger attacker by using many quick techniques that flow together in a vicious combination.


Kali (Weapons Fighting)

Filipino Martial Arts are known for there use of the stick and blade. This class will focus on being able to fight with sticks and knives, but like all Filipino Martial Arts, all techniques will be just as useful if you are unarmed. Although this course will focus on realistic fighting, we will also cover competition drills for stick sparring, and hone our skills with padded weapons and protective gear.


Hybrid Jiu Jitsu

What do you get when you take a core of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, add some Japanese small joint manipulation, throw in some Judo throws, and integrate Filipino Dumog dirty strikes and weapon techniques? You get our own blend of Jiu Jitsu. Whether you're here for sport or reality training, stand up or ground, Gi or no Gi, whether you fight fair or dirty, are female or male, you will get something out of this class. Students are encouraged to stay for open mat after class for either free wrestling or to perfect their techniques.
