Building Tomorrow's Leaders Today

At UMAC, our diversity of kids martial arts classes is one of our strengths. While different martial arts forms differ in style, the core message and lessons taught at our academy are all rooted in learning self-defense while growing more confident as an individual and as a team. We teach children how to be champions through kindness, compassion, and self-discipline, building in them the courage and spirit to succeed in life, both on and off the mat.

Students will find a community at our academy, which fosters inclusion, compassion, respect, communication, and lifelong friendships

Focus

At Gracie Victor, we like to have fun. But to achieve goals, self-discipline is necessary, so we encourage our students to focus and pay attention to detail. By building their individual strengths, they learn that they make the team stronger. Martial arts isn’t confined within the walls of the academy, they are a set of standards that are carried with them at all times.
