Through martial arts, we strive to strengthen the overall character and physical fitness of each child.  The Ultimate Kidz Zone program builds on that foundation to accelerate emotional and educational readiness for school.  Our Ultimate Kidz are the leaders of tomorrow---our future.  They deserve the very best that martial arts has to offer: physical strength, good character traits, and the opportunity for advanced academic abilities.

We believe in providing a foundation that will enable children to become lifelong learners because they have discovered that learning and physical activity go hand in hand and are FUN!  Our Very Own Tracy Long and the late Kennie Frankle developed this unique program.
