## About Martial Arts & Fitness Training

### What We’re About

Martial arts is way more than fighting. For 25+ years, I’ve poured my heart into building The School of Martial Arts with every student’s sweat and spirit. Here, discipline, respect, and sticking with it matter as much as learning to punch or kick. Sab kuch seekhna hai - not just moves but how to be a confident, humble person.

### What You’ll Learn

You pick your path - we’ve got serious variety:
- Combat sports: Mixed Martial Arts lessons, Kickboxing, Boxing, Muay Thai
- Traditional arts: Taekwondo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
- Fitness side: Yoga for martial artists, marathon training, tough workouts

### Who Fits In

Age, fitness, or physical limitations don’t stop anyone here. Seen a polio survivor compete, and a 55-year-old get that black belt progression. 
- Beginners: Start as White Belt, get video lessons for practice at home
- Women: Special focus on our women's boxing program, ladies-only batches
- Groups: Self-defense workshops for offices and communities

### How We Roll

If you’re looking for quick results, this isn’t it. Black belt? Takes years. We train folks for competitions but care more about the experience than just winning. For diehard fighters, our 2-year diploma can even set you up for a career.

### Our Team

All our coaches compete actively - we lead from the front, not the sidelines. We push you hard, but you’ll end up tougher, more confident, and part of a solid crew.

### Why I Do This

Seeing students grow, win, or just feel safer - that’s the win. We’re here to build champions, both in fights and in life.

[The School of Martial Arts](https://mytribe.in/theschoolofmartialarts)

### My story

I’m Ashwin, founder of The School of Martial Arts. Been at this since 1998, sweat and soul, not just sport - it’s my life. Had my share of injuries, thought I’d hang up my gloves, but nope, still fighting, still winning medals in my 50s. What makes me proud? Seeing a 55-year-old get his black belt, watching Naina use her skills to protect a friend. My students say, 'ivattu namage kalisikottiddu full upayog aaytu' (today’s training was really useful). That’s what keeps me going. I walk this path with my students, not just show the way.

### My work

- **Combat Sports & Fitness Training**: We teach MMA, Kickboxing, Boxing, Muay Thai, BJJ, Taekwondo, and Yoga. Training for marathons too.
- **BOX-M Diploma Martial Arts Programme**: Unique 2-year diploma in martial arts boxing, including judging, refereeing, and special batches for women.
- **A Way of Life, Not Just a Sport**: Martial arts here is about discipline, respect, and perseverance. Age and fitness level don’t matter.
- **First Response Self Defense & Real-World Combat**: Practical self-defense classes for all, including NGOs. Your safety and confidence come first.
