Our Adult program is aged 13 and up and we work very closely with beginners to make sure they are supported while they learn. Experienced adults learn advanced theory and concepts that allow them to grow in the art
Our Kids program is from ages 7-12 and we provide a structured and safe environment for kids to learn how to grapple. A huge emphasis is place on discipline, respect and integrity.
A very large amount of our students are adult and kid family training. We love when families train together. Parents who train, coach in the kids class and learn what it means to be a leader on the mats.

We are located inside Kaufmann’s Karate. Since we rent space from them we do not have the same overhead a school would have if they needed to cover all their expenses. That allows us to offer quality instruction at an affordable price.
Both instructors received their Black Belts from Michael Geery who runs one of the first and largest schools in the Tampa area. There are over 25 black belts and many sister schools we can visit as part of your membership here.
