Farmington Martial Arts is the largest academy and the headquarters for the Youn Wha Ryu Martial Arts Association. Youn Wha Ryu is a true mixed martial art system.
The Youn Wha Ryu Martial Arts Association system is a traditional and complex self-defense system that goes beyond “kicking and punching.” Students learn practical self-defense concepts that focus on increasing reaction, timing, speed and full-body power.
The comprehensive curriculum includes the most effective and efficient techniques from Kung Fu, Karate, Tae Kwon Do, Hwarang Do, Jiu-Jitsu, Aikido, Judo, Hapkido, Kendo, Tai Chi, and others. The dynamic classes combine both aerobic and anaerobic training and encourage the development of self-discipline, perseverance, balance, agility, coordination, flexibility and total-body strength. Training can be modified as needed for students to be able to participate regardless of age and ability level. The traditional family-oriented martial arts classes are approximately one-hour in length and follow a structured format.
Each class focuses on the six training principles:
Be Polite
Be Patient
Be Alert
Be Brave
Do Your Best
Respect Yourself and Others
