Martial Arts for the whole family

 
We are a family-focused martial arts school in the centre of Upper Hutt.

We offer a range of martial arts classes for children, teens and adults of all ages.

Our Academy culture is relaxed and friendly. We aim to help you and your family achieve your martial arts/self-defence goals and realise your potential.

We have a strong team of experienced Instructors. We offer much more than martial arts and self-defence training, and we would like you to join our family. 

So, come along and try out an orientation class for you or your children and begin your own martial arts journey.

Our classes are run at our modern, owner-occupied martial arts studio in the centre of Upper Hutt.

 

Academy Update January 2025 

Academy re-opens on Monday, 13th January on full class timetable. 

Now is the best time to start your martial arts training. We cater for all ages from 5 and up in specially tailored age appropriate classes:

5 - 6 year olds - Hapkido Dragons

7 - 12 year olds - Hapkido Tigers

13+ - Hapkido

Many people think that martial arts are for young people only. This is not true.Martial Arts is not just for young people.

If you are aged 50 or over or know anybody who is aged 50 or over, who can walk up a couple of short flights of stairs and who may have either done martial arts in their youth or who have always wanted to, then now is the chance!
