Martial Arts Classes
01
Tiger Tots learn to direct their limitless energy in positive ways. They develop skills to focus on a single task and see complex challenges through to completion. This is accomplished through fun activities that also help them build physical strength and coordination at the same time they are learning about mental discipline.
02
Our group martial arts class adds more complex challenges and more active self-defense, including bully prevention. We begin to study the mental benefits and character development aspects of martial arts more directly, while of course ramping up the physical component to expand each student’s own physical boundaries.
03
Advanced Training
Advanced training takes a deeper dive into martial arts principles, going beyond the color belt curriculum to prepare for eventual promotion to Cho Dan or 1st Degree Black Belt. Available to all adults, as well as children who have earned the rank of Green Belt.
04
Self-Defense seminars can be scheduled on an as-needed basis. Contact us regarding your needs today!

“ Over the years, my passion for outdoor adventures became increasingly difficult. To continue to be active in my middle years, I needed a lifestyle change. Martial arts training provided the endurance, strength, and flexibility that I needed to turn back the biological clock. Now, I’m happy to bring this training to aspiring martial artists of any age.”

EXCELLENT Based on 4 reviews James MeyerJanuary 23, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoy training with the Schwettmans. They provide different perspectives and are extremely knowledgeable in martial arts. I have been training with them for about 2 years now and am looking forward to earning my black belt so I can begin my journey into being a knowledgeable practitioner of martial arts too. The patience they need to work with me is beyond belief, but they do it!! I’m glad I can take this journey at this school!!
