About The School:

Our martial art is a lot more than just punching, kicking, weapons, etc. While we do put in lots of training 'on the mat' and in the dojo, and that is our main focus, we also believe that real-world experience and a variety of skills are also valuable to have. And the art is much more robust & well-rounded than that. From defending against a physical attack, to awareness of your surroundings, to outdoor skills & first aid, to staying safe online – there are many types of self-protection in today’s world. And we strive to be as prepared as possible to handle whatever life sends our way.
