KSA Martial Academy

Master Williams, Choi, and Eddins are incredible and their guidance has helped me gain confidence and strengthen me physically and mentally. Hapkido is so much more fun than regular work out, I highly recommend anyone to stop in to try a free class.

The instructors are incredible, both in terms of their martial arts skills, their ability to teach, and their holistic loving view on life. I've been practicing Jeet Kune Do and Filipino Martial Arts there for about half a year and it has been a challenging but very positive experience. I've heard others talk really positively about their kids class, Taekwondo, and Hapkido arts as well. Highly recommend!

Master Cat & Liz are amazing! My husband and i extremely enjoy their weekly classes and private lessons during the weekend. We try our best to make it to their weekly classes but since we commute from Clarksville, Cat & Liz were willing to do some weekend classes for us. Cat & Liz are THE most heart-warming individuals. My husband has years of marital arts training whereas I am a complete newbie beginner with 2 left feet. But Cat & Liz are able to instruct us both where we leave every lesson with full knowledge and gratitude. Not only do we learn about discipline and techniques in martial art, KSA martial art is a great couple activity as well! It is our weekly couple activity. They have Self Defense, aikido, Filipino Martial Arts (FMA), Goju-Shorei Weapons, Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do (JKD), and Tae Kwon Do (TKD). We especially enjoy the FMA and JKD. Coming from California where my husband trained in these two discipline, he says they are on par with other Inosanto based instructors. KSA actually teaches you how to defend yourself. KSA is NOT a place where you hit a dummy and run away. They actually mentally and physically prepared you in case of any danger. They changed my life and I can’t thank them enough. Thank you Kat & Liz and see you soon!

We're relatively new to KSA, but my daughter and I are already huge fans. The instructors are thoughtful and patient, excellent at explaining the "why" behind what you're learning. It's an incredibly positive place that's dedicated to empowerment in all its forms. The lessons they teach there, both on and off the mat, are exactly what I want my daughter to be learning! I encourage anyone who might be interested to come check out a class!

My family and I have trained under Master David Turnbull for years. Each year at camp and usually another time or two a year, we have the privilege to learn from his instructor, Master Kathy. Master Kathy knows how to motivate and get the most out of every student, including my boys who are autistic. Each time she teaches us she has a new lesson. Each time the lesson sticks. If you have the opportunity to learn from Master Kathy and her students, take it. You will surprise yourself, as she gets the best out of you.
