Jupiter Martial Arts | Jupiter Traditional Martial Arts

WELCOME

Jupiter Traditional Martial Arts in Jupiter, Florida has been offering high-quality training since 2008.

We do our best to "leave the ego at the door" and therefore can learn from each other at maximum capacity.

AFFILIATION

As of 2023, we have joined the United Combat Martial Arts Alliance. This is very important to us as the UCMAA is inclusive to many martial arts disciplines. The eight areas of study include Karate (our core,) Japanese Jujutsu, Toide, Judo, Aikijujutsu, Kobujutsu, Iaijutsu and Kempo.

Our philosophy is simple: if you train with the best people around (no matter the style) and keep an open mind, you can grow by leaps and bounds. We respect and appreciate the people we have met through our affiliation, and will continue to nurture the relationships for the betterment of the dojo.

LOCATION

We are located at the Jupiter Community Center (behind the Jupiter Police Department), and practice in their dance room. The address is:

200 Military Trail
Jupiter, FL 33458
561-889-2735

Hours of Operation are Saturday mornings from 8:30 until 11 am and Monday evenings from 7 to 8:30 pm.

Starting in February 2024, a Weapons Class will be held at 160 Bridge Road in Tequesta on Tuesdays. Details to follow.

WOMEN'S SELF DEFENSE - NOT JUST ME! FOUNDATION

We are proud to help bring awareness and funding to the Not Just Me! Foundation, an organization designed to bring the humanity back into a person's life after they have been through an attack. The training that we offer focusses on avoiding a conflict by practicing strong awareness skills. However, when physical intervention is required, we teach in the areas of striking, improvised weaponry and situational self-defense (grabs, ground work, holds). In total, we have raised thousands of dollars and trained thousands of women since training in Jupiter.

To All at Jupiter Traditional Martial Arts~ I want to thank all of you for being so generous and patient with your students at the Women’s Self Defense class and exceptionally at your Monday night class last week, which I attended. Your welcoming demeanor along with your guidance and examples of focus and discipline is impressive.

An INCREDIBLE and extremely VALUABLE experience. Every woman should take advantage of the generosity of these wonderful instructors and learn to protect themselves.
