Professional Martial Arts Training in Oklahoma City

Oklahoma City is like many others today, becoming more violent and more congested. With the tremendous influx of illegal aliens and the large increase in violent gangs-especially those from south of the border-we're all in greater danger than ever before. Conditions in our schools has deteriorated to the point of being absolutely reprehensible. In some metro areas, instructors are afraid to reprimand violent and abusive students because of fear of lawsuits and the once-noble ACLU has turned to protecting the socially aberrant much more often than the ordinary citizen. All these factors have led to a society that feels more dangerous and, in fact, is. It's becoming apparent to many people that their only protection is going to be themselves. That means learning strategies, safety measures to take in daily life, and then training in some type of self-defense. Fortunately, this growing demand for training like this has spawned classes at universities, and small businesses like kung-fu studios and their like.

Oklahoma State University has some on-going courses which teach people to get fit, loose weight, exercise and learn some basic self-defense. Their classes are available for members of the Colvin Recreation Center. The memberships are available for the staff and faculty of the college and for all alumni. One of the classes being taught this spring, 2007, is Combat Solutions. This teaches students a number of blended techniques from martial arts, including tae kwon do, boxing and kickboxing. A kickboxing and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a class teaching some different forms of striking and grappling. Finally, they have a Tae Kwon Do class that teaches students in Korea's national martial art.
