Our Adult Martial Arts classes at National Martial Arts offer Poughkeepsie and Hyde Park the most extensive self-defense training around.

Unlike the many disciplines that favor more size and strength in a fighter, Gracie Jiu-Jitsu® abides by the idea that you will eventually be smaller than an opponent and you'll need to overcome that somehow. With our training at National Martial Arts, you'll learn how to use leverage and technique to overwhelm a larger opponent into submission.

Known as "the art of eight limbs," Muay Thai is a total body training discipline that will teach you how to gain an edge over an opponent using any means possible. Our Muay Thai Classes at National Martial Arts will help you develop serious total body strength while helping you learn how to efficiently strike using any part of your body.

Perhaps the most known self-defense discipline to American athletes, boxing is an art form that takes years of training and constant commitment to perfect. But at National Martial Arts, we're here to help boxers of all ages and experience learn the basics or sharpen their skills.

There's no better way to celebrate your child's big day than with our martial arts themed birthday parties at National Martial Arts.
