Jen holds a Bachelors degree from the University of Maryland and has over 15 years of experience working with child athletes.

Kenny comes to the 25/50′s with a Bachelors degree from Towson University and over 4 years of experience working as a substitute elementary & middle school teacher.
Under the guidance of our professional Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructors, your child will learn more than martial arts. He or she will learn balance, coordination, and fine-tune their motor skills in ways that will help them in any athletic discipline they may choose later in life. But that’s not all! Through the auspices of martial arts training, our instructors work diligently to reinforce the important life skills of confidence, discipline, dedication, hard work, teamwork, and respect. These learned work habits and skills transfer to success in the classroom and beyond.
A free week trial is offered to any prospective student. Don’t miss out on a chance to give your child an experience that will serve him/her for the rest of their lives!
