All Levels Welcome
First time on a mat or fifth year of training, AK-49 Martial Arts has a spot for you. The room is built so beginners can settle in without feeling lost, and so experienced students still get pushed hard enough to keep growing.
Classes are run so you can work at your own pace. Coaches actually watch what you are doing and help you fix it, instead of barking generic instructions over a music system.
It's All About You
You are not a number here. People notice when you show up. People notice when you do not. We push each other on the mat, look out for each other off it, and celebrate the wins as they come, big or small.
Our coaches ask what you are training for and adjust the work to fit. Get in shape, learn to defend yourself, compete, or just have a place to leave a long day behind. The plan is yours.
Meet Your Alter Ego
01
Get Better
Show up, do the work, leave a little sharper than yesterday. The curriculum is built so you keep moving forward, whether this is your first week or your fifth year.
02
Get Tired
The training is honest. Heavy bags, live drilling, and rounds that ask something real of you. Walk out tired in the way that makes you want to come back.
03
Have Fun
A workout you actually look forward to changes everything. The crew here makes the hard sessions feel a lot lighter, and the easy ones a lot funnier.

What People Say
“AK49 Martial Arts is a great place for a healthy workout and a real skill-learning environment. I was nervous when I first started, but the coaches and other kickboxers were quick to make me feel at home. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, which makes such a difference for any newbie. They are very professional and share wise, important life skills along the way. I highly recommend it to anyone, at any age or skill level, who wants to pursue martial arts in a healthy and professional manner.”

Google Review“Coaches are warm hearted and take the time to learn each of the students. Everything that's done is done with heart and pure value in raising a wonderful future of great leaders. The depth of the changes I've seen with the love and guidance with my own children shows up not only in class, but in school and at home. I've never been so impressed and thankful for a class that becomes a part of your life, as well as the wholesome parents you meet. Strongly encourage everyone to enroll. You won't regret it.”

Google Review“Wanted to drop in and train during the summer while away from my normal dojo. AK49 Martial Arts was extremely welcoming. Instructors are top notch and the dojo is clean and spacious. This is a place I'd be happy to train at year round. My daughters enjoyed the children's class as much as I enjoyed the adult class.”

Google Review“This gym is my home away from home. I spend many hours at the gym sharpening my mind and my martial arts. The staff is my martial arts family. Valeda at the desk is amazing and personable. Sensei Seth is a great black belt coach to look up to and has a lot of knowledge to give his students. They and the gym have helped me in many surprising ways along my journey. This is a great place to grow as a person as well as in your martial arts. The coaches are fun and patient. I'm happy I got the courage to walk in there four years ago.”

My boys have learned a lot of skills, self confidence, and self discipline. Classes are fun and instructive, and they always look forward to attending. We couldn't be happier with this program.”
