Our Philosophy

The result of true karate is natural, effortless action, and the confidence, humility, openness and peace only possible through perfect unity of mind and body. This is the core teaching of Zen, the basis of Bushido, and our philosophy.

People About Us

Our family is so happy that we found Dan Hurd’s Academy of Martial Arts. My son has been taking classes for over 6 years and as we watched him progress, the rest of the family started taking classes too. Mr Hurd and Mr Dahlhaus both genuinely love their art and teaching it to others. Each class is engaging for the students and helps build confidence and discipline. If you have ever been interested in learning martial arts, this is the place to go!

Amy Cooley

Gary McIllwain

Both of my daughters have been going here for years. Mr. Dahlhaus and Mr. Hurd are great with the kids. Teaching discipline, confidence and self-control as well as strength and passion. They (along with all the other instructors) are doing a great service for our community.
