At Arrowhead Martial Arts in Salt Lake City, Utah, we help adults just like you get a smart start in the martial arts.

Whether you are looking for practical self-defense training, a new hobby, want to meet new people, or just want to get more fit, we can help.

We specialize in teaching adults with little to no previous experience the martial art of KENPO in a beginner-friendly environment.

But, are we the best martial arts school in Salt Lake City, Utah for you?

The answer is YES if you find yourself nodding to any of these statements:

1. You only want to train with adults
2. You want more personal attention
3. You want to learn what works on today’s streets
4. You want to learn from authentic black belts
5. You want to learn self-defense you can do
   
6. You want to try our lessons before signing up

1. 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.

2. You want more personal attention

We’re the only martial arts studio that actually limits how many students we teach.

Why do we do this?

Because we know you will learn faster and more thoroughly with smaller class sizes and we do not want you to ever feel like just another number in our classes.

3. You want to learn what works on today’s streets

You’ll learn the martial arts system of KENPO. This practical self-defense system is designed for the American culture and modern day environment; while many other martial arts are geared towards other cultures and historical time frames.

Our  modern martial arts system emphasizes simple and direct movements making it a highly practical self defense system for any adult to learn. We work exclusive training drills so you can master the art and make it instinctive.

KENPO incorporates every situation you can imagine including unarmed attackers, armed attackers, multiple attackers and more.

Learn simple defenses against:

• Punches, pushes and kicks
• Grabs and holds
• Joint locks and chokes
• Knives, guns, and sticks
• Being taken to the ground
• And more!

While other martial arts schools are adding on other arts to fill in their gaps, you will learn one martial art that incorporates it all from the start!

4. You want to learn from authentic black belts

We’ve been open since 2001 and our chief instructor has been teaching the martial arts for nearly 20 years. At Arrowhead Martial Arts, you will never have to worry you’re learning from an unqualified black belt.

Our chief instructor, Mr. Ryan Wheaton, is a 7th degree black belt and is on the board of directors for the American Kenpo Karate International association.

Mr. Wheaton trains with 10th degree black belt Mr. Paul Mills who has more than 40 years experience in the martial arts. Mr. Mills was a direct and private student of Mr. Ed Parker; the founder and President of the International Kenpo Karate Association.

Unfortunately, many martial arts schools are not members of any organization that regulate quality standards or testing requirements. In fact, many martial arts school owners pay to get their black belt quickly and open up a martial arts school without much training at all.

However, you can feel confident that our training history is legitimate and that our instructors have the credentials and experience to teach you correctly.

5. You want to learn self-defense you can do

Are you wondering if this is something you can do? If you can throw a frisbee, hammer a nail, or saw a piece of wood, you can do this practical martial arts system! Unlike other martial arts that are very acrobatic, KENPO is designed around simple every day moves.

We will also teach you how to effectively defend yourself against much larger and stronger attacker so you can feel confident in any situation you might face.
