Our instructors supervise all sparring activities and we feel we have the skills for our students to spar in a safe manner. Sparring allows us the ability and training to apply the tools we are given and have learned. Let it be known that martial arts has one of the lowest percentages of injuries of any sport (including soccer).

Self-Awareness / Self-Defense - Protecting Yourself
The first and most important training aspect of self-defense training is “Awareness”. Self-defense is a serious subject, but this is not the army, it is a classroom and we have fun while learning. Even the strongest building can't stand on a weak foundation. That is why we support each other in class because you can only learn and grow if you have a strong support system. Come and meet like-minded individuals, engage with other members of your community, and have some fun!

Protect Yourself

When it does, it is best to be prepared. Alpha Omega Martial Arts is here to give you the tools they needed to protect themselves when they need to.When the adrenaline is pumping it can be very hard to think clearly. This is the primary focus we have when teaching. We are going to teach you something that you hopefully will never have to use, but if you do, then we want you to be able to pull out this new skill set with ease. That is why we created a course specifically to prepare you in case of an assault.Alpha Omega Martial Arts has designed its self-defense course by boiling down different martial arts techniques into their key components. These components are then connected with specific situations so that you gain the necessary knowledge to handle almost any circumstance. Our goal is that when situation X arises, you will be able to counter with Y.
