Our Programs
Age ranges are guidelines. Placement depends on a student’s ability to follow directions, work with others, and participate in the class. We’ll help determine where your child can train productively and be appropriately challenged.
Kids & Youth Programs
Good training meets students where they are and gives them something to grow toward. At BGX, younger children begin with a consistent routine and broad movement skills. As students mature, training becomes more specialized, with opportunities to explore how different martial disciplines connect.
Martial Skills Workshop
Monday - Friday 3 P.M.
Suggested ages: 10+
Head out of school and onto the mats. Designed around the after-school hours, this session combines focused instruction with time to practice and explore.
Following the day’s training theme, students develop skills through bag work, target drills, movement exercises, and supervised partner practice. Beginners build their foundations while experienced students refine their technique, with challenges suited to each student’s readiness.
Little Ronin
Monday - Friday 4:15 P.M.
Suggested Ages: 5 – 8
Before children can apply a technique, they need to learn how to listen, move with control, and work with others.
Little Ronin leans into Korean and Japanese traditions, building those foundations through structured practice, clear expectations, and skill-based games.
Students learn to follow directions, take turns, respect training partners, and contribute to the group. Classes develop balance, coordination, basic martial movements, and general physical skills. That includes learning proper exercise technique, stretching, and building the body control needed for more demanding training.
Stepping Stones
Alternating Curriculum, Monday - Friday 5:00 P.M.
Suggested Ages: 8 - 14
As students develop greater focus and independence, training expands into daily skill focus areas.
Each day explores a different part of martial practice through several disciplines. Throughout the week, students learn how those skills connect and when to use them.
Build balance, positioning, and footwork through boxing, Taekwondo, and Muay Thai. Explore how different stances and movement patterns help you close distance, create space, and find an angle.
Movement Monday
Explore hand and leg trapping drawn from Wing Chun, Kali, and Silat. Through partner drills, learn to redirect contact, control limbs, and create openings at close range.
Trapping Tuesday
Develop punches, kicks, and combinations through boxing, Taekwondo, Muay Thai, and Wing Chun. Bag work, target drills, and partner practice build accuracy, coordination, power, and control.
Wallop Wednesday
Learn to fall, manage balance, and bring a partner to the ground with control. Explore takedowns, throws, and groundwork drawn from wrestling, Hapkido, Jujutsu, Judo, and Silat.
Throwdown Thursday
Put the pieces together. Blended drills, games, and supervised challenges connect movement, trapping, striking, and grappling. Students practice recognizing opportunities, making decisions, and adapting to a partner. Sparring is introduced according to readiness.
Fight Night Friday
Adult Programs
It’s never too late to start, and previous experience gives you something to build on. Whether you’re stepping onto the mats for the first time or returning after years of training, there’s room to learn here. Bring what you know, share your perspective, and explore how new skills connect with your existing practice.
Locks & Throws
Mondays & Wednesdays 6:00 P.M.
Suggested ages: 13+
Built around Hapkido, this class incorporates wrestling and Judo, along with clinch techniques from Muay Thai and Pencak Silat. Learn to fall safely, break an opponent’s grip, take their balance, and apply joint locks & submissions. Training begins with static partner drills and progresses into pummeling and flow work as students become more familiar.
Trapping & Striking
Mondays & Wednesdays 7:30 P.M.
Suggested Ages: 13+
Trapping and parry work from Wing Chun, Kali, and Silat meet the footwork and punches of boxing, the knees, elbows, and leg kicks of Muay Thai, and Taekwondo’s high kicks and long-range fighting. Through pad & bag work and partner drills, learn to work past an opponent’s guard and connect strikes as the range varies. Sparring gives students opportunities to test those skills as they become ready.
Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (BJJ)
Tuesdays & Fridays 6:00 P.M.
Suggested Ages: 13+
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu focuses on groundwork grappling, using technique and leverage to control an opponent and work toward a submission. Students learn to escape difficult positions, defend submissions, and move into positions of advantage through partner drills and live rolling. Beginners build a foundation while experienced students continue developing their game under our guest BJJ instructors.
Hard Target Tactics (HTT)
Tuesdays & Thursdays 7:30 P.M.
Suggested Ages: Adult
Hard Target Tactics (HTT) is a combatives class focused on surviving violence and creating opportunities to disengage. Training spans striking distance, the clinch, and ground survival & recovery, with concealed-carry work addressing firearm access and retention under pressure. Practice is direct and purpose-driven, with no sport rules or competition goals.
Invitation Only Programs
Participation depends on demonstrated control and readiness. Speak with an instructor if you’re interested.
Weapons Training
Thursdays 6:00 P.M.
Explore traditional and contemporary arms: blunt weapons such as staffs and escrima sticks; bladed weapons including kama, knives, and tomahawks; flexible weapons such as rope darts and meteor hammers; and hybrid weapons like nunchaku. Individual practice and partner drills reveal how each weapon’s shape and movement determine its use.
We may also offer sword training through Haidong Gumdo, a Korean sword art similar in many ways to Japanese Kenjutsu or Kendo.
Open Sparring
Fridays 7:30 P.M.
Bring the pieces together through supervised sparring that blends skills across disciplines. Rules vary to encourage problem-solving, sometimes giving each partner different options: one may only punch while the other works for takedowns. These rounds challenge students to adapt their training to the opponent and conditions in front of them.
Students planning to compete in tournaments are required to attend Open Sparring.
