About Our School

Oak Ridge Martial Arts Academy was founded in 2003 by Sensei Matt Van Wolput. Oak Ridge Martial Arts Academy is the finest school in the area, dedicated to making your Martial Arts experience enjoyable and satisfying. Our instructors are the best. They have studied and trained for years to qualify as part of the Oak Ridge Martial Arts AcademyTeam, and their primary goal is to assist you in being the best you can be.

Our carefully structured programs go far beyond punching, blocking, and kicking. We will help you acquire effective self-defense skills and provide you with a comprehensive, personal development program. It is our goal to raise the quality of life for all our students in every way possible.

Although we honor Martial Arts traditions that go back centuries, we are dynamic and are constantly seeking new and innovative ways to enthuse and excite our students.

Our recently expanded state of the art facility is over 2500 sq. ft. equipped with changing rooms, two bathrooms, a parent spectator viewing area. The Dojo is equipped with the latest training equipment available on the market. In addition, we pride ourselves on cleanliness, maintaining the school daily to provide our students with a pleasant training environment.

We are constantly expanding and updating our equipment to ensure safety and to constantly provide our students with the best available training tools.

We pledge to make each student’s journey as fun, exciting, and educating as possible. We monitor progress closely and walk with students every step of the way. We believe that being a Martial Artist is not just learning to kick and punch, it is about becoming the best that you can be in every way.
