TEEN AND ADULT KENPO

Adults are ranked based on Ed Parker’s American Kenpo Syllubus. Ages 13+

​

It is never too late to begin a new endeavor. We concentrate on our abilities rather than our limitations. We embed our core principles while handling more sophisticated content in a responsible and mature way. When teaching avoidance techniques and situational awareness, real-world scenarios should be emphasized. As we age, our social interactions evolve with us, and we find ourselves in more peculiar situations. We explicitly address this in our teen/adult class as we delve deeper into Ed Parker's American Kenpo.

TEEN AND ADULT KICKBOXING

Unstructured. Ages 13+

​

Required equipment: Boxing gloves, shin guards, and head gear must be purchased by student. Equipment is available for use during first class. Limited inventory available in dojo for purchase, but students are free to purchase via appropriate providers. 

​

Have you desired an exercise program that goes beyond a cardio course but isn't structured around a rigorous curriculum and belt rank system? Our safety focused kickboxing program is designed to build an individuals knowledge and appreciation for the sport but also be applicable on the street. Because we emphasize the stand-up striking elements of MMA in our instruction, this class is ideal for students with an interest in MMA.

We have over 45 years of safe firearm handling experience at Dan's Martial Arts. We are strong believers in the second amendment, believing safety comes first and foremost. We emphasize sensible strategies and legally justifiable acts because we support each person's right to self-defense. We offer safety classes for families that choose to have firearms in their homes.

We provide a welcoming atmosphere. The techniques that both male and female instructors have worked together to develop are the foundation of our class instruction.
