A private "members only" martial arts academy

Getting started is easy and safe.  Every student starts with a gentle, private lesson, followed by a month of free, safe, non-contact classes.  Adult students start in a special beginners class that lets them get into shape as they learn the basics of our arts with other students who are new to the academy.

Finally, every student receives a free uniform with their membership.

The hand and the sword.  The empty-hand art we teach is the mother art of Tae Kwon Do and Tang Soo Do, and all belts our students earn are recognised around the globe.   This art is called Soo Bahk Do,  and it is taught to a single worldwide standard under a single organisation: the World Moo Duk Kwan.  It is a safe, traditional, non-contact art that focuses on discipline, fitness and self-defence.

Our sword program is based on Japanese sword fighting and focuses on self-development.  It is not taught as a martial art, and their are no belts.  Instead it is taught as an art and discipline of mind, body and spirit in which students advance from one level to the next until they reach the black belt and then master levels of training.

Two arts for the price of one.  The empty-hand art we teach is the mother art of Tae Kwon Do and Tang Soo Do, and all belts our students earn are recognised around the globe.   This art is called Soo Bahk Do,  and it is taught to a single worldwide standard under a single organisation: the World Moo Duk Kwan.  It is a safe, traditional, non-contact art that focuses on discipline, fitness and self-defence.

Our sword program is based on Japanese sword fighting and focuses on self-development.  It is not taught as a martial art, and their are no belts.  Instead it is taught as an art and discipline of mind, body and spirit in which students advance from one level to the next until they reach the black belt and then master levels of training.

Of course each art can also be studied separately.

Membership starts with a private lesson.  Specially trained instructors will show you our academy, introduce you to the master instructor, and discuss with you what you or your child want to learn from the martial arts.  Then, you or your child will take your first, private, black belt leadership lesson.

After your private lesson, all students get a free month of classes.  A private, members only martial arts academy, means that we don't advertise to the general public; instead, all of our students are either referred by existing members, or are sponsored by one of our instructors.  After their free month of classes, all students receive a free uniform with their membership.  Best of all, our class fees are competitive with other, public martial arts schools in the area.
