Since opening its doors in 2004, Boon Martial Arts has impacted thousands of lives in the community. Our friendly staff looks forward each day to helping our students achieve their goals. Although standards are set high, each student at BMA is evaluated on an individual basis to ensure progression on their own timeline. This approach ensures students achieve and earn rank on their own merit. We encourage our students to trust the process and enjoy it. Earning a black belt at BMA is a once in a lifetime experience!

Boon Martial Arts has a YouTube channel for students looking to have a better understanding of techniques taught in classes or for those just looking to brush up on their skills.
