Safe and Supportive!

“We’ve had a wonderful experience at Borges Martial Arts. Classes have had a positive impact on our daughter’s focus, confidence and overall mood. Sensei Rich is fabulous. He makes the kids classes fun and engaging and creates a comfortable and respectful space for the kids to learn. As well as a safe and supportive place for the kids to be challenged and grow.”

Feeling Strong, Safer & More Aware

I would highly recommend the Borges 10 Week C.O.B.R.A. course. It is engaging from the start, and no time is wasted. Not only do you get extensive and practical hands on training, but you also get detailed reality-based scenarios. If you are looking for a dojo that lends true value, camaraderie, and preparedness, then look no further.
