Our Mission
Our mission has always been to combine tradition and innovation, emphasizing self defense and self-discovery rather than competition. We pride ourselves on inner-development over solely outward display.
At Top One Martial Arts, each vigorous hour spent training is seen as an opportunity to build confidence, discipline and both mental and physical strength.
