At our Warrior Academy for kids our goal is to make children Warriors in life as well as the Martial Arts. We have gone to great measures to develop our children’s curriculum.

Our Young Warrior Program offers daily core lessons starting at age four. These classes are divided into two different classes depending on age. Our Little Warriors class is for children ages 4-6 and our Junior Warriors class is for children ages 7-13.
Our program reinforces EARNED self-confidence, situational awareness, self-defense and leadership skills to allow your child to find their inner strength and mental resilience to face all of life’s challenges, on and off the mat. We offer a varied curriculum, exposing kids to elements of Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu- jitsu, Krav Maga, and functional fitness!

“Instruction for every level and from young kids to not so young adults. My kids love it. They have gotten noticeably stronger and skilled in self-defense already in the weeks since we joined.”
“Mr. Cochran is fantastic with the kids and able to cater to many diverse levels in his classes. Classes are structured but fun at the same time. Our 6 year old loves it! He is learning to respect others and be confident. It is a terrific experience at an affordable price!”
“My son has been training at RVAMA for almost 2 years. Bryan’s Warrior Academy is the perfect mix of stand up, ground, fitness, and self-defense techniques. I visited several different martial arts studios before deciding and chose RVAMA because of the amount of interactive one on one attention each person receives in every class as well as the practicality of the skills being taught compared to the other places I visited. I highly recommend the Warrior Academy program.”
