The staff here are so amazing! They are attentive, passionate, and really help you learn

The staff here are so amazing! They are attentive, passionate, and really help you learn. I started taking my kid here and she loved it, so I thought I'd give it a shot too. Best decision I've made in regards to my physical health! It's a tough workout, but it's so much fun. Jake and the rest of the IMAA family have been a pleasure to work with, and I can't wait to continue my martial arts journey with them!

I've known Jake, the entrepreneur and martial arts master behind IMA, for a long time. His martial arts skill

I've known Jake, the entrepreneur and martial arts master behind IMA, for a long time. His martial arts skill is clear to anyone who steps into his dojo, but it is his good nature and ability to bring out the very best in his students that has given him a name in Martial Arts Training. His focus on self-confidence and self-awareness complements the exemplary physical training his students receive. Rocklin is lucky to have him, we miss him here in Santa Cruz.

FAQs

I don't consider myself athletic or physically fit. Is martial arts for me?

Yes! We structure sessions to benefit all students regardless of size, stature, age, strength, or ability. In fact, by using an opponent's energy against them, a person on the smaller size can finally feel certain in their ability to protect themselves.
