Columbia Martial Arts

Adult Programs (15+)

Our Adult's Program is broken down into three levels: beginner, intermediate and advanced.

Beginner

At the beginner level every class will start with warm-up and conditioning exercises followed by a stretching routine. Then students will be practicing the proper fighting stance, footwork, punching, kicking and blocking techniques as well as the basic self-defense. There is no sparring in the beginner class. All drills are partner based. Participants will have a chance to practice their newly learned skills on the focus pads. Groundwork in the beginner class is limited to very few basic positions. The beginner program is designated to provide a solid foundation for all the skills.

Intermediate

In the intermediate class students, start practicing using boxing gloves while exercising with the partner at low impact level. Offensive and defensive techniques will be complemented with new skills. Students will be learning how to spar safely under instructor's supervision. Grappling arsenal will be growing too. Practitioners will become familiar with submissions like the arm bar, shoulder lock and choke. Also escapes from bad positions like head locks and bear hugs will be trained on a regular basis. The intermediate program is designed to give you stand-up skills (Kickboxing) and ground control skills (Jiu-Jitsu).

Advanced

In the advanced class students will cross-train Kickboxing, Jiu-Jitsu and Pankration (All Powers). We focus on teaching how to put all the skills together. Moreover students will practice effective takedowns as well as defending from takedowns. Participants will be learning about their strengths and weaknesses. Advanced program follows a strict Mixed Martial Arts curriculum giving every class a different focus. In this class every person will not only learn on how to deal with your opponent but most importantly how to deal with yourself.

Your progress and hard work will be rewarded by the uniquely designed Mixed Martial Arts Belt System. The colors of the belts are as follows: white, yellow, high yellow, orange, high orange, green, high green, blue, high blue, red, high red, brown, high brown and black.
