This is the first look at what we do. It’s a snapshot of the energy, the grind, and the community you’ll find here. We train hard, we train smart, and we welcome everyone who’s ready to work.
Boxing & Striking Technique
We build fighters from the ground up with a focus on solid fundamentals. Our sessions cover everything from footwork and shadow boxing to heavy bag drills and partner pad work, ensuring you develop real power and precision.
Functional Strength & Conditioning
This is where we build real-world strength and explosive power. Our workouts use a mix of barbells, kettlebells, battle ropes, and bodyweight exercises to forge bodies that are resilient, powerful, and ready for anything.
Movement, Mobility & Flow
A fighter's greatest asset is their ability to move. We integrate drills like Animal Flow, wrestling sprawls, and targeted stretching to improve your flexibility, balance, and coordination, making you more durable and agile.
The Next Generation: Youth Training
We are passionate about building discipline, confidence, and skill in young warriors. Our youth classes provide a structured and supportive environment for kids to learn martial arts fundamentals while developing focus and resilience.
Our Training Ground
Welcome to Art of Defense. Our facility is fully equipped for MMA, boxing, and functional fitness, featuring a matted training area, heavy bags, a full range of weights, and unique murals that inspire the warrior spirit.
The AOD Community
We are more than a gym, we are a team. From intense indoor sessions and outdoor training to special workshops, we push each other to be better every day.
