Martial Arts Is More Than Just Blocks, Kicks & Punches

Most people think Martial Arts is only about learning how to fight and defend yourself. However, the truth is that it’s so much more. It's about connecting to your inner-strength and accomplishing goals you never thought you could. It's about respecting your body and mind and experiencing a feeling of strength that you might never have thought you had. You discover how to stay calm when everything around is hectic and unstable. You develop the confidence to tackle any challenge and succeed because through Martial Arts you will see that you can do anything you set your mind to. Due to the fact that you will consistently get a complete body workout, struggling with weight management will become a thing of the past.

Martial Arts Will Change Your Life

Participating in our Teen & Adult Martial Arts Program is often a life changing experience. Our classes are specially designed to help our students experience not only the confidence of knowing they can protect themselves, but also the confidence to take on any challenge they may face.

In addition to developing mental "strength," our proven training methods can provide relief from back, neck, and other body pain due to the relaxing stretching, toning and the constant movements you will enjoy in each class. Many people find that after a short time training in our martial art, they are in better physical shape than at any other point in their lives.

Perhaps the most important part of our Teen and Adult Martial Arts Program is that it strengthens your spirit as you tackle challenge after challenge, always succeeding and always reaching your goals. By the way, let’s not forget that it’s FUN, FUN, FUN. This isn't like exercising for hours and hours at the gym. At United Martial Arts Center, you'll learn something new and exciting in each class, and conquer challenges you never thought you could, all the while growing in physical, mental and spiritual strength.

The Stress-Relieving Benefits Of Martial Arts Are Unmatched

In this day and age, we have to realize that stress is a silent enemy, and one that can suddenly sneak up on us, wreaking havoc in our lives in so many ways. The great news is that nothing relieves stress more than good, hard exercise. Add to that our targeted training methods, and you're looking at the most powerful form of stress-relief you can imagine. Training at United Martial Arts Center, you will soon discover that when stress is gone from your life, it leaves space inside of you for good feelings like confidence, self respect and an indomitable spirit to flourish.

United Martial Arts Center Adult Program Is A Fun, Friendly, And Fulfilling Workout For Teens & Adults

Frequently after just one class students tell me how comfortable and included they feel. That's because we place a big emphasis on creating not just a great martial arts environment, but a family friendly atmosphere in which each person, regardless of their skill level, age or gender, feels welcomed and included. In fact, you'll feel like part of our family in no time, and you'll know you're among people who really care about you and your success.

We have worked long and hard to develop a curriculum that is highly enjoyable, where you can develop friendships exercising and training with like-minded people who have similar goals. We have a saying in our school... “People that kick together, stick together, and support one another." But most of all, our students end up building friendships that last a lifetime. What better way to spend your time than staying fit, learning a life-saving skill, and meeting people who could end up becoming your friends for life?

What We Teach You Could Save Your Life

Self defense is a skill you would be led to believe is universal in all martial arts. The simple definition of martial arts means "military arts", teaching a person how to defend one’s self, family and country. The sad reality of this is that many martial arts schools are not teaching realistic self defense for the 21st century. At our school, everything we teach is reality based. Our instructors work very hard to insure that most any situation you might encounter is covered in the classroom under very safe learning conditions, so you will be prepared.

You Will Master Your Mind And Your Emotions

Finally, things that used to frustrate you will dissolve and rather than getting angry, you’ll simply keep your cool. Parents will find themselves more patient with their kids, teachers will find themselves more patient with their students and people who work with customers find themselves more focused and calm, even if the situation gets testy. 

Ultimately, Martial Arts is about the way we treat one another, and ourselves. The beautiful movements of Martial Arts are simply the tools we use to get you there. Our program will help you to achieve a greater sense of control over your mind, your body and your emotions while creating a sense of inner peace that follows you throughout your daily activities. You will feel calm, more relaxed and more confident everywhere you go, and in all that you do.

The ultimate goal of Martial Arts is to help you become more peaceful and balanced in your life, while at the same time giving you the skill-set you need to feel safe and secure in all situations. At United Martial Arts Center, that is what we are all about.
