Essential Martial Arts

At Essential Martial Arts, we're dedicated to building responsible citizens in Guilford County since 1996. As one of the premier martial arts schools on the East Coast, our specially trained staff has helped thousands of people reach their goals of improved focus, fitness, relaxation, weight loss, and improved confidence. We have specialized programs for all ages and skill levels, designed to promote self-confidence, leadership, and self-defense skills.

Our kids' martial arts classes are designed to promote self-confidence and leadership, as well as a firm grasp on self-defense and identifying potential dangerous situations. Our adult martial arts classes, on the other hand, focus on teaching the fundamentals of self-defense, martial arts stances, blocks, kicks, and strikes, and more. We also offer M-Pact courses, which were developed by Essential Martial Arts Founder Master Monty Hendrix, and Easy Tai Chi programs, which can help reduce stress, tone muscles, loosen joints, improve circulation, improve digestion, and improve balance and coordination.
