The Core Self Defense System

Traditional Philosophy

Farmington Martial Arts provides a vehicle by which both children and adults develop self-confidence, self-discipline, concentration, and an improved self-esteem.  Much like traditional martial arts, Farmington Martial Arts instill these traits in students through class protocol, proper training methods, and drills.  Our young students immediately begin to learn discipline and respect with nothing more than a simple bow. By combining encouragement and guidance from our motivational instructors, all students train in an atmosphere conducive to learning and beneficial to their overall physical and mental development.

Innovative Training Methods

While character and personal development is learned in a traditional martial arts atmosphere, the technical side of Farmington Martial Arts has been developed through pure innovation and adherence to the principle that martial arts should be a constantly evolving system, one that grows with the student rather than apart.  Based on principles derived from the scientific fields of biomechanics, kinesiology,  sports medicine, chiropractics, and psychoneurology, Farmington Martial Arts provides a complete self-defense system that is highly effective, and possesses the added benefit of being a complete heath system for the body and mind.  Movements in the Farmington Martial Arts system are natural and stress-free, eliminating the chance of injuries that is prevalent in the ordinary training curriculum of traditional martial arts.

Because many traditional martial arts are difficult to learn and unrealistic in actual self-defense situations, the Farmington Martial Arts core system is designed to be easy to learn, yet highly effective.  From the very first lesson all techniques taught are street oriented.  Even the smallest of children can develop a tremendous amount of power!

In many martial art systems on the most talented athlete can excel.  Here at Farmington Martial Arts, techniques can be learned by everyone, young or old, male or female. 

Learn Practical Self-Defense

Farmington Martial Arts is a system of natural, easy to learn movements designed to allow individuals aged 4 and older, male or female, to defend themselves against aggressive, usually larger opponents.  You will be amazed at how easy and practical every technique is and how quickly you will gain confidence in its application.

Promote Better Health

Farmington Martial Art's Core Self Defense System is the refinement of your body's natural movements.  Students are taught to become more relaxed and fluid to eliminate wasted motion for increased speed and power.  The system's natural aerobic effect improves the cardiovascular system (heart and lungs), and accelerates the body's metabolism.  As a result, the body burns more calories and along with proper diet results in weight loss. Regular training also results in increased balance, flexibility, strength, muscle tone, speed, coordination, reflexes and timing.

Develop a Strong Mind

Here is where Farmington Martial Arts rises above all other exercise and sport activities.  Classes are taught according to individual needs and level of skill.  Through the instructor's guidance and encouragement, students begin to establish personal goals and actually achieve them.  Students learn that by setting realistic goals, dedication, and hard work anything is possible. Students learn that by setting realistic goals, dedication, and hard work anything is possible.
