Our Advantages

Like No Other Salt Lake City Utah Martial Arts Studio

salt lake city utah martial arts

Are we the “best” martial arts studio in Salt Lake City Utah for you? The answer may be “yes” if any of the following appeals to you:

You only want to train with adults

We're the only training facility in Salt Lake City, Utah that exclusively teaches adults over the age of 18. While learning a martial art is great for kids, you should never have to train along side them or ever be taught by them. Many studios in town either combine kid and adult classes or don't specialize.

You want more personal attention

Our instructor to students ratios are some of the lowest in the state because we're the only martial arts studio that limits how many students we teach. Why do we do this? Students learn faster and more thoroughly with smaller class sizes and is a bedrock principle why we were founded. We have eight instructors who all are here to help you thoroughly learn this martial arts system of AKKI AMERICAN KENPO.

You want to learn what works today

You'll learn a progressive martial arts system known as AKKI AMERICAN KENPO that is designed for the American culture and modern day environment. Many other martial arts are geared towards other cultures and historical time frames. Our integrated martial arts system emphasizes simple direct movements based on everyday movements making it a highly practical art for a person of any size to do and incorporates stand up defenses, ground defenses, and specialized weapon training at the advanced levels.

You want to learn an art tailored to you

Our entire system is tailored around your own personal flexibility, height, weight, reach, and strengths. Everything you learn is adapted to you and, on the flip side, how to make it work against a variety of different sized people with varying levels of reach, height, weight, skill, and experience.

You want to know all costs, up front

We believe in up front pricing so that you don't have to come in and listen to a sales pitch in a closed office before hearing about how much things cost. We understand cost is an important consideration when selecting a martial arts studio and provide the information to help you make the best choice for you.

You don't want to pay belt testing fees

Unlike the other studios in town, we don't charge our students any belt testing fees on any of their colored belt tests — every promotion comes with a FREE belt and certificate.

Our program can literally save you hundreds of dollars a year in these extra fees. Most studios promote students 3-5 times a year. With an average cost of $40 a test, the first year alone could save you as much as $200!

You don't want to sign a legally binding contract

We want you to train here because you love it, not because you signed on the “dotted line” which is why we don't make you sign ANY contracts.

Before signing up with any studio, ask if you're required to sign a contract to train with them and what you will be charged should you decide to stop taking lessons. Recently, a student here told us it cost them nearly $1,000 to get out of their contract with their former studio! Don't let this happen to you - train at AMAS where you don't have to sign a contract.

You want to learn from an expert

You'll learn directly from our chief instructor who is an internationally certified 6th degree black belt with nearly 20 years experience teaching AMERICAN KENPO to adults. In fact, he has taught well over 3,500 classes in that time.
