Martial Arts Academy

This Saturday, we had another incredible event! 💪🌹

The goal of In Her Power was to teach women practical self-defense skills for real-life situations using Krav Maga techniques. We learned, laughed, had so much fun, and most importantly, left feeling stronger and more confident!

We’ll definitely be doing this again, and we hope to see you in our classes as you continue your self-defense journey and become stronger, more confident, and more empowered every day! 🔥

A huge thank you to all of our partners for being part of this special day. We loved having you with us and truly appreciate your support!

Stay strong. Stay confident. Stay empowered. ❤️

🥋 What an amazing Sunday! 🎉

Congratulations to all our Taekwondo students who participated in testing! Your hard work, focus, and dedication were on full display. We are so proud of each of you! 👏🔥

Keep training, keep growing, and keep reaching for the next level! 🥋💪

Empower Her 2026 🌹

What an incredible morning!

Last Saturday, we had the pleasure of bringing together an amazing group of strong, supportive women for our Empower Her event. We started the day with a healthy breakfast, giving everyone a chance to connect before diving into an engaging and empowering self-defense class.

There were smiles, laughs, new friendships, and valuable skills learned throughout the morning. Seeing everyone step outside their comfort zone and leave feeling more confident was truly inspiring.

Thank you to every woman who joined us and made this event so special. Your energy and enthusiasm are what make our community so amazing.

We're already looking forward to doing it all again next year and we can't wait to make it even bigger and better!

💜 Stay strong. Stay confident. Stay empowered.

Meet Assistant Instructor Ethan! 🥋

Born and raised in Florida, Ethan comes from a big family of eight and has been training in Taekwondo for 7 years. Throughout his journey, he has developed a strong passion for the art, constantly challenging himself to grow both as a martial artist and as a leader.

His favorite form is Tae Geuk Sae Jang, and his favorite technique is the assisted front kick because he enjoys the smooth transition into the jump and the speed and precision it requires.

Outside the dojang, Ethan enjoys expressing his creativity through music. He plays both the piano and violin, loves listening to music, and enjoys spending time playing video games.

As an Assistant Instructor, Ethan is dedicated to encouraging students, leading by example, and creating a positive learning environment where everyone can build confidence, discipline, and reach their full potential.

Welcome to the team, AI Ethan! 👏🥋

🥋 Meet Instructor Shelby Smith! 🥋

We’re excited to introduce one of our dedicated instructors, Shelby Smith!

Born and raised in Florida, Shelby is a 3rd Degree Black Belt who first began her Taekwondo journey at the age of 11. After training for six years, she took some time away from the sport before returning three years ago with the same passion and determination that brought her to black belt.

Her favorite form is Taegeuk Chil Jang, and her favorite technique is the ridge hand because of its intensity and dynamic range of motion.

Shelby competed nationally in sparring as a teenager, gaining valuable experience and memories that continue to inspire her martial arts journey today.

When she's not on the mat, Shelby enjoys spending time with her two children, whether they're swimming, skating, playing board games, or watching movies together. She's also a huge fan of building LEGO sets especially Harry Potter collections!

We are proud to have Shelby sharing her knowledge, energy, and passion with our students every day!

🥋 Meet Coach Amanda Costa! 🥋

We’re excited to introduce one of the dedicated members of our coaching team, Coach Amanda Costa!

Originally from Colombia, Amanda brings passion, discipline, and a strong love for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to every class she teaches. With 8 years of BJJ experience and the rank of Brown Belt, she is committed to helping students grow both on and off the mats.

One of her favorite positions is the back attack, especially when setting up chokes. She loves this technique because it provides a high percentage opportunity to control the opponent and work toward a safe and effective submission.

Her dedication to training and continuous learning has made her an invaluable coach and mentor to our students.

When she's not on the mats, Amanda enjoys spending time outdoors through hiking and camping, and she also has a passion for music.

We are grateful to have Coach Amanda as part of our Martial Arts Academy family and look forward to seeing the positive impact she continues to make in our community!🤎
