I bumped into the owner (TKD & BJJ Black Belt instructor) Jimmy Holmes before they opened this new location as I was peering through the windows after getting a coffee next door. I ended up getting a full tour of the facility & the plans for their use of the back building to be a competition/tournament sized mat space with a weight training setup as well. It is a beautiful facility, they're still doing upgrades here & there, but my favorite little fact about it is that the dumbbell rack in the back goes all the way up to 150lbs!! They offer a great selection of youth classes with a mix of high level men & women instructors. The team, THE TEAM!! They have competition medal winners across the board in martial arts & a great team atmosphere! Boys, girls, men, women, tons of competitors & winners, but minimal ego. Personally, I was only living here while I completed an internship for my degree program, but they've been very welcoming & accommodating during my short stay with them. I look forward to visiting in the future & getting some rolls in on a Sunday Open Mat or Warrior Wednesday where we just roll 10 rounds in lieu of a structured BJJ class. All love, I'll be back!

I've studied other arts and just recently began my journey in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu...wow!! I love it! I've been encouraging my friends to check it out and the ones who know me best can tell how captivated I am with this particular self defense martial art. If you even think that you might be, may be, just possibly a little curious...just go and talk with the instructor and see for yourself what they have to offer. Come back and respond to my post after that, I guarantee that you'll agree with me!!

I had been practicing at another Aikido Dojo in the area since 2013, but recently I had been…read moresearching for a more congenial Dojo with "better atmospherics, better culture", and I still prefer one close to home. I found Cy-Fair Aikido Center, and I'm going to give them a go. Sensei Matt Poulson, who comes through the AAA/AWA heritage (The Founder M. Ueshiba - Koichi Tohei - Fumio Toyoda - Andrew Sato - David Galdamez - Matt Poulson) has good coaching skills and has been helping me to understand how what I've learned over many years at a different school fits into the context of the AAA/AWA heritage. The larger organization that Cy-Fair Aikido Center belongs to aims to be inclusive of different styles; they have students from different places. My 1st degree brown belt was fully recognized on day one of practice. Even though they use temporary mats, they are good mats, you can do hard ukemi on them, no problem, and they have a big area to work with. For those who don't know, Aikido is a Japanese martial art developed by The Founder Morihei Ueshiba as a synthesis of his martial studies, philosophy, and religious beliefs. Aikido is often translated as "the Way of unifying (with) life energy" or as "the Way of harmonious spirit." Ueshiba's goal was to create an art that practitioners could use to defend themselves while also protecting their attacker from injury. Aikido is performed by blending with the motion of the attacker and redirecting the force of the attack rather than opposing it head-on. This requires very little physical strength, as the aikidōka (aikido practitioner) "leads" the attacker's momentum using entering and turning movements. The techniques are completed with various throws or joint locks.

However, their patience and tailored regimen has assisted me in beginning my journey to health. I appreciate that there is an adult class I can attend at night, which doesn't interfere with my work or family obligations. As a parent, I did not want the franchise experience. I wanted someone with extensive background in Tae Kwon Do. I found that in Master Chen. Her impressive history, including being an international referee, drew my attention. Each of her instructors are carefully vetted. I have had great experiences with her staff and their interaction with the children. It was important to me that my child not just have a drop-off place where the kids just run around on their own whims. I wanted a structured program to teach discipline, have fun, and keep her exercising. Before I committed, they offered a trial class. My daughter had a lot of fun and immediately asked to sign up. She particularly likes her "kyah," a shout they make. There is usually an on-going special for new-to-the-sport families and we got a free uniform. Nice!
