To be capable in competition or self-defense, you must be well versed in all 3 of these martial arts. HYBRID is the ONLY facility in town that offers all 3 under 1 roof. Each with separate, fully certified, blackbelt instructors
WHAT SETS US APART
-Here, you will not break boards,you will not memorize Kata's, nor will you use impractical weapons, these things aren't bad or wrong, we just do not do them here.

But,.... Due to the success and popularity of these martial arts, they are advertised almost everywhere. Sometimes The person "teaching" you will be wearing a white or colored student belt just like you... HYBRID however, is the ONLY school in the Roanoke Valley that offers them with actual certified, black-belt instructors received directly from the highest ranking masters in the world...
-Remember, you are paying good money to learn potentially life saving self-defense from someone, shouldn't that be from people that have proven themselves & their art at the highest level available. Don't find out too late that you are getting sub-par instruction. Don't accept anything but the best.
