Great facility and instruction

Something different from typical martial arts

I’ve trained in other martial arts over 20 years and, for me, this dojo, its people, and the arts practiced in it are simply exceptional. If you’d like to see something different from the typical martial arts businesses, something that is truly beautiful and useful, something that will engage your mind and body from day one, something that challenges ALL of its practitioners—from day one to decades of practice, this is it. This. Is. It.
