In case you missed it, Venture Martial Arts competed in the World Championship tournament this past weekend. Thirteen of the students were crowned World Champions this year, making it the best year ever as a team. Many individuals won multiple World Titles in different divisions including sparring, weapons, weapons sparring, and extreme events. While the success of the students is absolutely fantastic, Venture also won several awards as a school which shows just how incredible the community is. The awards are voted on by members of the National Martial Arts Alliance. The head instructor at Venture, Isaac Martin, won Instructor of the Year. This award is earned because he produced more young quality leaders than anyone in the NMAA. As a World Champion himself, not only has he worked to create some of the best Martial Artists in the world but he also proves what he teaches works.  Audrey Keeley...Read more

The taekwondo community is unlike any other sport community in the world. It involves a community of individuals from around the country and even the world that all have a common goal, to change the world one Black Belt at a time. The culture inside of each dojang is special, and a bond exists that can’t be found among other sports. Most people don’t understand the taekwondo community until they are a part of it, and once they start they never want to leave. Friendships: Those that train together, stay together. Each class they see the same people and form lifelong friendships. They build a trust and friendship formed over working to achieve the same goals. Many students attend the same school and stick together every day. They have learned the same life skills during each of their taekwondo lessons and bring that into their social circles. They spend time...Read more

I have many fond memories of watching football in the fall. Cheering on basketball teams in the winter is entertaining and exciting. But the reality is that other sports just don’t provide the same benefits that taekwondo does. In fact, training in Martial Arts can actually improve performance in other sports! Here is why we think that karate is the best sport out there.  Year-Round: While other sports have a seasonality to them, that is not the case with Martial Arts. You and your kids can train all year which keeps the consistency going. By training consistently, you are able to improve your skills to an advanced level. You get more out of each session and don’t have to worry...Read more
