BUILDS PHYSICAL AND MENTAL CONFIDENCE

Sometimes, it can be hard to have faith in your abilities, especially when you’re stressed out and overworked.

Studying martial arts is a natural confidence builder. It provides students with a series of achievable goals to pursue – and achieving each one provides a boost of confidence and a sense of achievement.

Adult martial arts students learn to trust their strength and ability in a challenging environment.

 
2-FEEL-GREAT-ABOUT-YOURSELF
 

FEEL GREAT ABOUT YOURSELF

It’s common for adults to struggle with self-esteem as they deal with competitive work environments and overloaded to-do lists.

Adults who study martial arts learn to search within themselves for their best qualities. They learn to self-motivate and not to worry what others think of them.

Martial arts instruction encourages students to feel good about themselves as they master new techniques.

 
3-LEARN-HOW-TO-STAND-UP-FOR-YOURSELF
 

LEARN HOW TO STAND UP FOR YOURSELF

Many people feel vulnerable and wish that they had a way to defend themselves if they end up in a dangerous situation.

Martial arts classes build strength, confidence, and agility while teaching basic but effective self-defense moves.

Studying martial arts can help you shake feelings of vulnerability and believe in your ability to ward off an attack.

 
4-PROTECT-YOURSELF-AND-YOUR-FAMILY-WITH-MARTIAL-ARTS
 

PROTECT YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY WITH MARTIAL ARTS

You’ll carry yourself with strength and confidence when you know you can defend yourself.

 
5-MARTIAL-ARTS-CLASSES-ARE-FRIENDLY-COMMUNITY-ENVIRONMENTS
 

MARTIAL ARTS CLASSES ARE FRIENDLY COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENTS

As an adult, making new friends outside of work can be difficult. Taking a class is one way to connect with people who share a common interest.

While martial arts is not a team sport, our martial arts school is a cooperative community – one where teamwork and support is encouraged.

A friendship that starts inside the studio may end up extending to the outside world.

 
6-MAKE-FRIENDS-WHILE-YOU-GET-IN-SHAPE-AND-CHALLENGE-YOURSELF
 

MAKE FRIENDS WHILE YOU GET IN SHAPE AND CHALLENGE YOURSELF

Finding time to work out and socialize might feel impossible – but what if you combined the two into one activity?

Research shows that people who exercise with friends are less likely to skip workouts than those who exercise alone.

Making friends in our martial arts school helps you build a social circle and gives you buddies to cheer you on and celebrate your successes.

 
7-CHALLENGING,-CALORIE-BURNING-WORKOUTS
 

CHALLENGING, CALORIE-BURNING WORKOUTS

One of the keys to losing weight is finding a workout that you genuinely like doing.

Martial arts workouts are fun and challenging. They burn calories while also building muscles and ramping up your metabolism.

Regular martial arts workouts can help you lose weight steadily, especially when combined with a healthy diet.

 
8-BUILD-BODY-CONFIDENCE-AS-YOU-SHED-EXTRA-POUNDS-AND-INCHES
 

BUILD BODY CONFIDENCE AS YOU SHED EXTRA POUNDS AND INCHES

People who carry extra weight often have a negative body image as well – and some have struggled their whole lives to lose weight.

Martial arts students carry themselves with strength and confidence.

 
9-IMPROVE-PHYSICAL-FITNESS-WITH-REGULAR-WORKOUTS
 

IMPROVE PHYSICAL FITNESS WITH REGULAR WORKOUTS

The best way to build fitness is to combine cardiovascular workouts with strength training.

Martial arts workouts give your heart and lungs a workout while also toning and shaping muscles all over your body.

Regular workouts increase energy and form an important part of a healthy lifestyle.

 
10-STUDYING-MARTIAL-ARTS-BUILDS-AND-TONES-MUSCLES
 

STUDYING MARTIAL ARTS BUILDS AND TONES MUSCLES

Few other workouts build and tone muscle as effectively as martial arts does.

All martial arts training focuses on strength, balance, and flexibility, building core strength as students progress and advance.

Good muscle tone is essential since muscle burns more calories than fat – and having a toned body helps increase vitality and confidence.

 
11-BURN-STRESS-AND-CALORIES-AT-THE-SAME-TIME
 

BURN STRESS AND CALORIES AT THE SAME TIME

Many adults accept stress as a way of life, whether it comes from their jobs, their families, or other issues.

Managing stress is a must since too much stress can lead to high blood pressure and depression, among other things.

Working out releases endorphins and helps increase feelings of well-being and positivity.

 
12-REGULAR-EXERCISE-HELPS-ALLEVIATE-ANXIETY
 

REGULAR EXERCISE HELPS ALLEVIATE ANXIETY

All people need an outlet for their worry and anxiety – and martial arts classes provide it.

In the absence of such an outlet, you might carry anxiety inside of you and inadvertently take it out on other people.

Martial arts classes burn calories, release tension and anxiety, and help keep you on an even keel mentally and emotionally.

    My daughter loves this class. I was very happy to see other little girls there and enjoying themselves too. I have heard of other places specifically asking why put a girl in martial arts, here they accepted her with was no questions. They treat everyone like they have known us for years and I've only been here for about a month. They are respectful to the children and have fun in their teachings. I hope it never changes.

  • Diana Lorena Estrada
    Classes have great different times to choose from, you pick the time and day you could go for your child's age class. They are very patient and put extra time for those who need that little push to make it better. I like the balance between being strict but not scary. The games they do in classes after the lessons are fun but ALWAYS meaningful to the lessons learned.
