A First Experience Built Around Your Child

This is not a crowded trial class where your child is expected to keep up. The beginner offer gives your family time, encouragement, and personal attention so your child can start feeling successful.

Two Beginner Lessons

Your child receives two 45-minute, one-on-one beginner lessons instead of being dropped directly into a group class.

Free Uniform

Your child receives a martial arts uniform so they can feel included, prepared, and proud from the beginning.

Studio Tour

See the academy, understand how classes work, and know exactly where your child will be training.

Meet The Instructors

Your family can meet the instructors, ask questions, and see how they interact with your child before deciding what comes next.

Parents Stay And Watch

A parent or guardian stays for both lessons, so you can see the coaching, your child’s response, and the entire experience firsthand.

Personal Attention

Your child can ask questions, move at a comfortable pace, and experience an early success without pressure or embarrassment.

We Never Throw A Nervous Child Into The Deep End

A child who freezes, hangs back, or needs extra time is not a problem to fix. It is a child who deserves a better first experience.

That is why both introductory lessons are one-on-one. Your child can meet the instructor, explore the studio, ask questions, practice simple skills, and build confidence without being compared to anyone else. A parent stays and watches the entire time.

More Than One Style. More Than Martial Arts.

We created our own curriculum to give children useful skills for training, school, home, and life.

Meaningful Progress

Students advance through our own structured belt system and earn every new rank.

Skills For Everyday Life

Confidence, focus, discipline, leadership, and self-control are reinforced at every level.

What Your Child Can Carry Everywhere

Confidence & Leadership

Children learn to speak up, try difficult things, and become comfortable taking initiative.

Focus & Self-Control

Students practice listening, following directions, managing emotions, and controlling their bodies.

Practical Self-Defense

Useful, age-appropriate skills help children become more aware, prepared, and capable.

Fitness & Belonging

Training provides an active outlet and a positive team where children can connect and grow.

Getting Started Is Simple

Parent Questions Before You Reserve

What exactly does my child receive?

Your child receives two 45-minute one-on-one beginner lessons, a free martial arts uniform, a personal studio tour, and time to meet the instructors and experience the program.

What style of martial arts do you teach?

We teach the Cosens Martial Arts curriculum, our own system combining proven elements of Muay Thai, boxing, karate, taekwondo, wrestling, jiu-jitsu, judo, Krav Maga, and practical self-defense.

Students build well-rounded skills in striking, grappling, movement, defense, and control while progressing through our own belt system. Confidence, focus, discipline, leadership, and other practical life skills are built into every level.

What if my child is shy, nervous, or slow to warm up?

That is exactly who the beginner lessons are designed to help. Your child is not placed directly into a busy group. The instructor can slow down, explain what to expect, and help your child participate at a comfortable pace.

Do parents stay during the lessons?

Yes. A parent or guardian must stay and watch both beginner lessons. We want you to see exactly how your child is coached, how they respond, and how the program works.

When possible, we encourage both parents or guardians to attend so everyone can meet the instructors, see the academy, and ask questions together.

Is the training safe for beginners?

Yes. Beginners train on padded flooring with controlled, age-appropriate contact, appropriate partners, and direct instructor supervision. New students are never expected to jump into hard sparring.

What happens after the two beginner lessons?

If your child enjoys the experience, we will explain the available age-appropriate programs and help you identify the best fit. There is no obligation to continue.

Can I text with questions?

Absolutely. Text us at (810) 390-5885 and our team will be happy to help with scheduling, age placement, the beginner lessons, or anything else you would like to know before reserving.
