Adult Program

Mangan Martial Arts Academy's adult program is appropriate no matter physical health, mental health, or martial arts experience. We keep beginners in mind, so you do not need any prior martial arts experience. Our adult program can be adjusted by our professional instructors to help you accomplish your personal goals at your own pace.

We have had students that have tried going to gyms, health clubs, and have even bought home gym equipment, but have gotten bored of these activities. Our adult classes are a mix of a relaxed, fun, and safe environment that also respects the tradition, philosophy, and honor of the martial arts. All of the benefits that you get from martial arts are because every class is unique, which makes working out fun and not a chore.

We also understand how busy life can be. Adults have jobs, children, a social life and there just doesn't seem to be enough time in the day to workout. However, Mangan Martial Arts Academy has adult classes five days a week and a flexible schedule, which makes classes easily accessible.

Am I too old to start martial arts training?

No, you’re never too old to start martial arts!

Martial arts are for everyone, regardless of age or fitness level. In fact, beginning martial arts as an adult has several unique benefits:

1. Tailored to Your Pace

At Mangan Martial Arts Academy, our martial arts programs cater to all skill levels and allow you to progress at a pace that suits your body and abilities. Instructors can modify techniques to accommodate your needs.

2. Low-Impact Options Available

Many martial arts styles focus on controlled movements and technique rather than high-impact, fast-paced drills, making them ideal for older practitioners.

3. Health and Fitness Benefits

Martial arts provide a well-rounded workout that enhances strength, flexibility, balance, and endurance—all of which are essential for maintaining health as you age.

4. Mental and Emotional Growth

Stress Relief: Training helps you clear your mind and manage stress.
Improved Focus: The mental discipline required sharpens your concentration and memory.
Confidence Building: Learning self-defense and mastering techniques empower you at any stage of life.

5. Community and Connection

Mangan martial Arts Academy is a welcoming, inclusive environment where you can meet like-minded individuals of all ages, fostering a sense of camaraderie and support.

6. It's Never Too Late to Start Something New

Martial arts are a journey, not a race. Many people begin their martial arts practice well into their 40s, 50s, or beyond and experience immense benefits, from improved health to a renewed sense of purpose.

Remember, starting martial arts is about personal growth, not comparison. Your journey is unique to you, and your age can be an asset, bringing patience, perspective, and determination to your practice. If you’re curious, give it a try—you might be surprised at how much you enjoy it!
