Union Martial Arts

Freezing temperatures make it very likely that roads will be icy and hazardous throughout our normal Saturday class times. Stay safe and we’ll see you all next week!

Closed on Monday 1/26 due to road conditions.

Sub freezing temps will make roads icy this evening, please be careful.

See you on Tuesday!

Saturday on the mats with a great group of kids, and a farewell for Clay as he and his awesome family move to Montana.
We’ll miss having him here. Never stop training, Clay!

Incredible energy in here tonight ✊🙏

Let's go! 🔥

Great classes on the eve of Christmas Eve.
Have a wonderful Christmas — we’ll see you all back on Friday.

The huddle. .

ADCC Charlotte Open — Results
4🥇 | 4🥈

Out of 93 youth teams, Union’s kids finished 4th overall.

- 4 Gold
- 4 Silver
- Wins, losses, and more lessons than can be counted

Proud of how the kids competed and carried themselves — composed and respectful in every match.

Special recognition to Angelica Tackle, who earned the 2nd fastest submission of the day, finishing in 7 seconds.
(Her older brother Francis also had a finish today, in 17 seconds.)

Days like this remind us that matches are won in the gym — in practice — through the intention, consistency, and focus poured into every session.

So grateful for the parents who bring hard-working, respectful kids through our doors. Your commitment, week after week, helps shape not just better athletes, but better people. It’s an honor to work with your families.

We’ll make adjustments and continue the climb.
We don’t stop.

Quick update on our schedule for Thanksgiving week:

We’re on our regular schedule all week — closed only on Thanksgiving Day.

If you’re off work or the kids are out of school, it’s a great week to get some extra training in and stay ahead of the holiday calories.

See you on the mat!

Amazing day at NAGA so far! ✊🔥
