MACHIDA KARATE

Machida Karate was developed as a self-defense style by the Machida family of Belem, Brazil. What makes Machida Karate stand apart from the rest is how the system doesn’t rely on simply standing techniques such as muay tai or ground techniques such as jiu jitsu. It combines multiple marital arts styles to form a complete fighting system. Steeped in the tradition of Japanese Karate, students learn respect and discipline at every turn, all the while learning real to life practical fighting applications. Students of Machida Karate will grow.
As you develop your mind you will also develop your body. Workouts are more intense and have a cardio drive to them. You can pace yourself at your skill level and there is challenge available to anyone who gives it their best.
Want to change? Want to be better? Machida Karate will do that!

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is one of the world’s most popular marital arts. It gained its fame by defeating all other martial arts that challenged its techniques time and time again and reshaping the martial arts world, hence being considered one of the world’s most effective self-defense methods. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was created to give the smaller and weaker person the upper hand by learning to use technique and patience to overcome an opponent. Most people find the practice of the techniques refreshing and giving of confidence in their abilities.The hidden attribute of training in jiu jitsu are the mental, emotional, and physical development that intrinsically happens through the practice. While learning the techniques of jiu jitsu, you ultimately learn more about yourself, what makes you have anxiety, what gives you calm, and how to find an equanimity in the storm. Because you practice physically, your body will change, and you will learn to live a healthier and more active lifestyle. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is for anyone and everyone. The techniques can be modified for your abilities and there is no need to “get in shape” prior to beginning.
The hardest part of learning jiu jitsu is making the decision to step on the mat and try it. Once that is overcame, the sky is the limit! Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is more and more being considered the martial art for the professional in life.
SHOTOKAN KARATE
Shotokan Karate is the most popular form of Karate on the planet today.
