Our Classes
“Absorb what is useful, discard what is useless, and add what is specifically your own” - Bruce Lee
Here at Atheneum, we teach the most effective styles of Martial Arts. Our classes are carefully tailored from our coaches’ deep reservoir of experiences to push you to success.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is widely regarded as one of the most effective self-defense martial arts and combat sports. BJJ focuses on grappling and ground fighting and promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger opponent by using leverage and proper technique, most notably by applying joint locks and chokeholds until submission.
Striking
Our Striking classes offer a unique fusion of Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Taekwondo, MMA, and Traditional Kung Fu. This comprehensive approach ensures you learn a wide range of techniques, from powerful kicks and punches to swift evasive maneuvers. We focus on teaching you not just how to deliver impactful strikes, but also how to effectively avoid incoming attacks. Join us and master the art of hitting without getting hit!
