Teenager Martial Arts

Age-Appropriate

At the teenager age, it’s so important that they’re in an environment that doesn’t embarrass them. The structure, rules, content, & curriculum are all in alignment for ages 13-17.

Practical Martial Arts

All students become proficient in the most important techniques from striking arts (Muay Thai, Karate, Taekwondo, Boxing) and techniques from grappling arts (Wrestling, Judo, Jiu-Jitsu). As your teen enters adult life, they’ll have real self-defense options.

Systemized Safety

Accidents happen. But they happen far less often when a martial arts academy actually has systems in place to mitigate risk. Rise Martial Arts has safety built in: daily safety briefings, clear standards as to what students can and cannot do, soft surfaces, & an average 6-1 student to teacher ratio.
