Mark Mikita is the best martial arts instructor youre likely to ever find. I looked for years before I found him, and have never looked back. With a JKD-style approach to the martial arts, Mark pulls the most effective aspects of a huge variety of martial arts, inter-splicing kicking, striking, knees and elbows, joint locks, nerve attacks, throws, ground fighting, BJJ, and grappling. Hes also the best practical weapons instructor youre likely to find, focusing on Kali/Eskrima stick and knife... He covers impact and bladed weapon craft and is working at a Bobby Fischer level of intelligence and knowledge. Unlike many, he can not only DO the martial arts, but he can teach it very well... Encouraging students to question what they learn. Hes also adamant about developing training skills that allow you to be a good partner and train safely... Which then allows you to train with the more brutal techniques, tactics and principles without fear of injury. This is an intelligent persons martial arts school... A place to come and really learn from a true master, in a great environment.
