The Mat Martial Arts & Fitness

“A journey of one thousand miles begins with a single step”. -Lao Tzu On behalf of everyone on our team, thank you for considering us to help navigate this step of your journey. The Mat is more than just a martial arts gym. Yes, we practice the tools of self defense including punches and kicks, and all that cool stuff. Above all else, however, we prioritize being more aware of one's self and surroundings, being effective communicators, and knowing when and how to take appropriate action(s). These are the three core principles to success both in life and in the dojo...followed by having fun. Life is full of stress and obstacles no matter what stage we are in. It's important to remind ourselves that we are allowed to enjoy the process of learning and practicing, and there’s no doubt it’s way more fun doing it with a great group of people. We are super excited to have you join our community and we look forward to seeing you on the mats!
