It is in a state of constant evolution, never standing still and fuelled by research and investigation.

Krav Maga (pronounced "Krahv Magah" and means "Contact Combat in Hebrew) is the official self-defense and fighting system of the Israeli Defense Forces. It is recognized as the most efficient self-defense system for real-life situations; emphasizing practical defenses against real attacks. Krav Maga is a very modern and practical style of self-defense. This system has been continually refined and developed in light of actual modern combat and self-defense experiences for adults.

No Gi and Gi classes teach all practical applications for self defense and sport competition. Jujitsu has many benefits and is a very diverse art and sport. Jui meaning gentle or to submit ; Jitsu meaning art or science.

This is not a brute strength art, but psychological knowledge of anatomy and skill. Skill that comes from exercise practices in break falls, throws, holds, a combination of tricks, breaking tricks, and movements of the body. These combinations and variations of the moves make the art, sport, training so complex as well as infinite in variety. As strength is not a major factor in jujitsu, balance, leverage and speed are needed. The strength is applied to its greatest advantage.

Youth Sport Jujitsu students will learn, condition and train in every aspect of the art. Our school is a black belt school and will educate and promote our students to a higher level of knowledge and performance.

Students will be encouraged to compete throughout the year in no Gi and Gi jujitsu competitions. Students will be competing locally and statewide and some students will want to take their talent nationwide. One of the largest names in sport jujitsu is NAGA. The rules of NAGA will be applied in our programs.

The Amateur Organization of Karate (AOK) is one of the oldest and largest open tournament sanctioning bodies in Texas and the United States. Competitors in the AOK are also highly regarded nationally and internationally. The Amateur Organization of Karate is the largest and oldest martial arts tournament sanctioning organizations in the United States. It was founded in 1977 when a group of tournament producers joined together in an effort to organize this fast growing sport and also establish standards and rules. Prior to 1977, tournament rules allowed many techniques that increased the potential for injury. A much safer set of regulations and tournament guidelines has since been incorporated, and are refined annually. The AOK has since become a major force in governing Texas karate tournaments. It has helped to ensure that competitors and spectators alike, have top quality, well run events, so the sport of karate can be safe and fun for students of all ages.

AOK competition is divided into four regions throughout the state. Competitors compete not only for trophies but points that will ultimately qualify them for the annual state championships. Many Black Belts aggressively compete for the AOK’s highest annual award, the Golden Greek Award. This award is named in honor of the late, great Demetrius "Golden Greek" Havanas, one of the greatest fighters to ever live and compete in and out of Texas. This highly respected honor is bestowed to the man, woman, junior female, junior male, and executive Black Belts with the most combined forms and sparring points.
