Celebrating and sharing two meaningful milestones for Sensei Nate.

He recently earned his Brown Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

This July also marks 30 years since he earned his Karate Black Belt in 1995.

One achievement represents years of continued learning. The other is a reminder that earning a black belt isn’t the finish line, it’s the beginning of a lifelong journey.

Thirty years after earning his black belt in Karate and Sensei Nate is still stepping onto the mat with the mindset of a student, continuing to learn, grow, and challenge himself.

For more than three decades, Sensei Nate has continued to train, learn, and grow while helping others do the same.

Congratulations, Sensei Nate, on these milestones.

Thank you for leading by example and showing us that there is always more to learn.

From your
OTW team, community & family

OTW MEMBER HIGHLIGHT
Hear what our members are saying about why they started training with us, and what keeps them coming back class after class.

What brought you to OTW United Martial Arts?
After my daughters’ gymnastics school closed, I searched for a place that offered discipline, strength, real skills, and a family-friendly environment. As a former martial artist, I wanted more than belt promotions—I wanted a school where my girls could grow in confidence and learn skills that matter. I found OTW through Google, gave it a try, and eventually started training myself. Today, OTW feels like our second home.

How has your life or behaviors changed since starting?
OTW has enriched all of our lives. The girls have developed responsibility, confidence, and healthier habits. The biggest change of all? They are brave, they are strong, and they are in control.

What do you or your children enjoy the most?
We love that OTW offers both Karate and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. One daughter loves grappling while the other prefers striking, and both get to pursue what they enjoy. I love the BJJ classes and the supportive environment. The instructors challenge us while creating a community where everyone wants to see each other improve.

What would you tell a family looking to start martial arts?
Do it. Starting something new can feel intimidating, but find a school that supports your goals and jump in with both feet.

Any other points or unique experiences you have had since joining?
The most unique thing about OTW is the community. My kids and I now share something we can do together. We grapple, do pad work at home, and our bond has grown because of it. My health, strength, and confidence have all improved, and I’ve found a community I genuinely look forward to seeing every week.

Great job by Amanda! We do things a little differently. We have some very specific requirements and limits on promotions.

That is also a big reason why our community is so strong.

The goal is skill. Not a belt. That is just earned over time.

It’s not easy but it’s all smiles at the end.

Come see why so many train with us or trust us to train their families.

Always fun mixing it up on Tuesday nights!

Adult Striking Class 6:00 PM Tuesday! All levels welcome.
