PROGRAMS

American Jujitsu

Distinct from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, American Jujitsu—founded in the 1920s—shares the same roots, techniques, and principles as Jiu Jitsu (just a different spelling of the same art), but with two key differences: a focus on stand-up grappling and throwing. Designed to help you control the fight before it ever hits the ground, American Jujitsu emphasizes real-world effectiveness, blending the most powerful techniques from traditional Jujitsu, Judo, and Wrestling.

Fun Fact: Our Jujitsu lineage was the first in Tucson. The Holck family opened the city’s very first Jujitsu school back in 1962—a legacy we proudly continue today. Want to learn more? Check out our instructor pages. We are the original and our roots run deep.

Sanda Kickboxing

Sanda Kickboxing delivers powerful striking combined with practical wrestling-style throws, sweeps, and takedowns—giving you a complete stand-up game.

It's the perfect complement to American Jujitsu.

Wushu Combatives

Practical and effective self-defense, both armed and unarmed. Rooted in Functional Chinese martial arts (Traditional Kung Fu), you'll learn dynamic movement, and the effective use of traditional weapons like the straight sword (Jian), saber (Dao), spear (Qiang), staff (Gùn), and short stick, all adapted for modern self-defense, weapon combat and sport fencing applications.
