Meet Our Coaches

Our classes are led by experienced coaches who have coached or competed at the highest levels. They bring a strong skill set and, more importantly, a contagious work ethic. Their leadership inspires students to push themselves and grow. While we never pressure students to compete, the mindset they develop here supports their confidence and success in whichever path they choose as they grow into adulthood.

All youth instructors are certified in child safeguarding, CPR/first aid, and trained in age-appropriate teaching methods. We maintain a tap-early culture, controlled contact, and clear safety protocols.

Pricing & Membership Options

We offer drop-ins, class plans, monthly unlimited memberships, and private lesson packages with discounts available for families, students, first responders, and military personnel. Belt tests and workshops are available as add-ons.
