Our Adults program offers martial arts and fitness lessons in both private and semi private group settings. We emphasize improvement of the individual and maintaining our safe, friendly and supportive community.
JUDO
"The Gentle Way" comes from feudal Japan's combat system; created in 1882 by Dr. Jigoro Kano, Judo is the refinement of ancient martial art Jujutsu. Judo was introduced in the 1964 Olympic Games. Judo is best known for its impressive throwing techniques and includes extensive ground work. Classes taught by Masters World Champion & 7th Dan Jack Krystek.
JIU JITSU (BJJ)
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu originated from Kodokan Judo, using leverage, positioning, and hooks to beat a ground opponent. Royce Gracie was made known at UFC 1. BJJ physically improves endurance, agility, balance, and reflexes. It's a self-defense means involving skill rather than size or weight. It encourages concentration, self-confidence, and leadership. Since BJJ requires a calm, concentrated mind, it allows participants to be present at the moment. Sensei Jack Krystek, Renzo Gracie Black Belt teaches our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes for adults (over the age of 16).
REALITY BASED SELF DEFENSE | Jiu Jitsu Modern Style
A Krystek original started by Jack and Albert Krystek in the 1970’s. Our style has evolved over the years to include a variety of martial arts principles, strategies and techniques to create a complete realty based MMA system.
CT 707- KRAV MAGA
CT 707 -ISFKM’s strategy complements every martial artist's skill set by incorporating it with speed and brutality of action, which renders its implementation practical and efficient in disabling or stopping a danger. Unlike Krav Maga, Israeli Special Forces Krav Maga is the same streamlined strategy-based on the principles devised by Sargent Major Nir Maman. It is taught at the IDF Special Forces Anti Terror and Special Operations School, where Nir served as chief counter-terrorism instructor.
Please note:
Privates and workshops only.

The Training For Warriors method is a physical and mental fitness program developed by Martin Rooney for fighters over 20 years ago. After a decade+ of use by many of the world's best warriors, we learned you don't have to be a MMA Fighter to use the TFW system, but you have to be a warrior.
A warrior is described as someone willing to work hard and improve themselves to overcome their particular life challenges. TFW framework was designed to improve muscle strength and mental strength to face these challenges.
TFW involves comprehensive warm-ups, pace conditioning, strength training, mobility, and stability practice.
Regardless of which format is being used, all of our variations teach proper technique, understanding of body mechanics, cues for form and safety, and development of kickboxing combinations that mechanically make sense. By applying these teaching strategies, students feel more successful, experience a fun and engaging workout, and build a strong kickboxing foundation that prepares them for more advanced movements.
TFW is a fun and challenging workout that can help beginners relieve stress and build self-confidence.
This place is the best. I've been training there for over 10 years and now my kids train there. The senseis are terrific, patient and knowledgeable and you can really tell they absolutely love the sport and sharing that knowledge. It's more like a family than a school and nothing is more important than the students.

Krystek is amazing! Sensei is dedicated, caring, knowledgeable, and driven. He wants all of his students to reach their goals and beyond. He sees the best in everyone, and brings out the best in them. I’ve witnessed him working with 3 year olds to people in their 60s. His teaching style is flexible and dynamic. I can’t tell enough people to join the school and take all of his classes! He has changed my life and the lives of so many that I know!

I've been a member of the school since 1992, and I can tell you both Jack Sr. & Jack Jr. have respectably serviced the community since the 1960's. As a student for over 25 years the respect, honesty and dedication the family has towards all the students is very rarely found at this level. They teach adults and children as young as 4 years old not only about martial arts but about creating a better person. I can truly state I would not be where I am today if not for the many years of education at this establishment. One of the great aspects of the school is the work both Sr. and Jr. put in with the children, they are very hands on with the classes. They are more than willing to work individually with everyone, unlike most martial arts schools you are made to feel comfortable and at home. They treat ALL members like family with a dedicated approach to hard work and constructive learning. No matter your skill level they are able to bring out the best in your ability. Actually the most important thing in all of this is it's FUN to be apart of, you want to go to class and continue improving. Take notice of the variety in class types from self defense to cardio based. Highly recommend to anyone.

Nowhere else better to train. Sensei Jack , Jack Jr, and Frank are the most friendly approachable, knowledgeable, and uplifting people. Any time you have a bad day and come here after is an automatic mood changer. No matter your athletic talent, physical shape, and goals, this is the place for you. Learning from one the of best and experienced judokas in the world always helps. No matter what your goal is, coming here will make you a better person in the physical and mental form. Highly recommended, and you will not be disapointed.
