Why do students in enroll in our academy?

As with any individual, people have many reasons for doing the same activity and the enrollment into our academy is no different.

Learn Realistic Self Defense : We strive to teach only the most updated concepts and techniques that will allow you to successfully defend yourself. Always refining and updating our teaching methods allows us to increase the speed and efficiency in which our students learn our system. Showing our dedication to our objective of realistic self defense we have on site, multiple impact reduction suits, in which you practice your techniques on a fully padded attacker.

Get Back Into Shape: With Soke-Dai Bochner's background in Exercise Science and Physical Therapy ( University of Rhode Island ) and Sensei Mendillo's background in Chiropractic (Bridgeport College of Chiropractic) our classes are designed to increase your overall fitness and well being. As you progress through our system, you will see your cardiovascular levels, muscular strength, muscular endurance, and flexibility increase exponentially.

Meet New People/Networking: A great way to make new friends is by training with new people. The experience of training, sweating, laughing and being driven by the same goals and objectives is a bonding experience that is surpassed by none. The experience that we want you to have when enrolled in our academy is that we will become like a second family, pulling for each other and picking each other up off the floor (figuratively and literally)

Learn a Hobby : Learning a new skill, is as invigorating as meeting new people. This hobby doubles as an effective life skill, (one that remains with your forever), may also save your life.

Expand their base of martial arts knowledge: On more than one occasion we, the instructors, have been honored to hear I have learned more in one of your classes, then I have learned in the last few years of my training or I have trained for the past 30 years and no system has come even close to Kuntao Jiu-Jitsu. Whether you are a session veteran of the martial arts or a new student, if you want to learn, we are the academy for you.

Protection of Your Family: Due to the fact that the art of Kuntao Jiu-Jitsu is only concerned with the objective of self defense, many students are concerned parents who want to learn how to protect their families and themselves if they are ever assaulted.
