No. 03 · Core values

What we hold to.

Three core values and six guiding principles. This is what gets taught and practiced here every day.

What we stand for

Three things,in this order.

  1. 01

    Grow their confidence

    A decent amount of knowledge and skill level of a combination of the three of those skills (Kickboxing, Wrestling, Submission Grappling) should provide your child with needed ability for protection and security of yourself and your child. Basic and fundamental knowledge of these three martial arts equip the confidence needed for self defense, competitive sport, or daily activities.

  2. 02

    Daily Programs

    Each program consists of its own style of self defense, catering towards specific movements that will have your children prepared or in general tired from class. so your child has something new to anticipate with each class.

  3. 03

    Age-level learning

    Our programs are curated for all ages, so every lesson offers the appropriate level of engagement for each student.

Underneath that

Six guiding principles.

01

Confidence

Built through small, repeated wins. Nobody gets to skip the hard parts.

02

Discipline

Showing up when it's inconvenient. Doing the basics when nobody's watching.

03

Respect

For the instructors, for training partners, and for the lineage you're inheriting.

04

Perseverance

Setbacks are part of the curriculum. We teach kids how to work through them.

05

Community

Stronger students help newer students. That's how the room works.

06

Safety

Physical and emotional. You can work hard here because the room looks out for you.

How we live them

From the mat to the rest of the week.

In every class

Students bow in and bow out. Practice begins and ends with respect, the basics get drilled, and small wins get noticed out loud.

Beyond the mat

We ask families to keep it going at home: patience, focus at school, and following through on small promises.

In the community

The academy shows up at local events and helps families who need a hand.
