Elite Martial Arts is on a mission to bring MODERN martial arts training to Nashville! Four separate kids programs and a teens/adults program insure age appropriate and focused instruction.

5-7 Years: 
This class is a fun and exciting way to introduce the little ones to self defense basics.  Age appropriate Muay Thai kickboxing and Krav Maga are practiced along with basic tumbling skills.  This class stresses focus, respect for others, quick direction following and appropriate use of martial arts skills.  We only punch and kick training pads and “real bad guys.”

8-12 Years:

• Level 1 – This beginner class is just for the first 3 belt ranks (9 months of training.)  Basic boxing, Muay Thai kickboxing, Krav Maga and grappling skills are taught here.
• Level 2 – This class is more advanced than Level 1 with higher level, yet safe, interaction with fellow students.  Kickboxing and Grappling skills are stepped up in application and detail.  Sparring (light contact kickboxing) is started here with full helmets, boxing gloves and shin guards for safety.  Like we always say, “It has to be safe to be fun!”  Short takedown and ground positioning and escape drills are practiced here.  Basic weapon defense is started here in the form of Escrima/Kali (using a short stick to protect oneself.)  Students are introduced to basic Krav Maga concepts of weapon defense here.
• Level 3 – This class is for kids who have reached expert/black belt level by training in Level 1 and 2 classes for a minimum of 3 years.  Ground fighting is stepped up in this class.  While positioning and escapes are the focus of the lower level classes, submissions and control of the opponent/attacker are addressed here.  Higher level Krav Maga and weapon defense are focused on in this class.

Adults:
Reality Based Mixed Martial Arts.  Boxing, Muay Thai, Krav Maga and Submission Grappling all practiced in a safe, clean and above all friendly environment.  Mixed Martial Arts transformed into a truly street safe system.  MMA techniques practiced with the possibility (and likelihood) of multiple opponents and weapon attacks in mind.
