Pro Black Belt Academy

Flower Mound’s Leading
Martial Arts Studio

Kids Martial Arts

Our kids’ program blends the best of Taekwondo, Karate, and Jiu-Jitsu into classes that are fun, challenging, and packed with life lessons. Every session builds focus, confidence, and self-discipline — while keeping kids fit, active, and moving strong. Parents love seeing their kids stay respectful, motivated, and full of healthy energy.

Teen & Adult Programs

Trade in the treadmill for something with purpose. Our teen and adult program combines striking, self-defense, and a combination of martial arts for a full-body workout that also sharpens your mind. You’ll burn calories, gain strength, and learn real-world skills to defend yourself, all while reducing stress and boosting confidence.

After School Leadership

We provide safe, reliable transportation from local schools straight to our academy, where kids can unwind, finish homework in our dedicated room, and then head into their martial arts class. Alongside training, they take part in our leadership curriculum — focused lessons that teach respect, responsibility, and confidence — giving families a positive, structured alternative to traditional after-school care.

Life skills through martial arts

Our kids' martial arts program goes beyond kicks and punches. With a blended curriculum of karate, taekwondo, and practical self-defense, we help children build focus, discipline, and resilience. Students learn leadership skills, respect, and responsibility—tools that help them thrive in school, at home, and in life.

Confidence they’ll carry everywhere

Martial arts is about more than self-defense—it’s about self-belief. Through high-energy training, goal-setting, and step-by-step instruction, kids develop confidence, courage, and self-awareness. They learn how to stand up to bullies, face challenges with determination, and carry themselves with pride—on the mat and in everyday life.

Building Confidence

Martial arts helps kids believe in themselves. By tackling challenges on the mat, they develop a confidence that carries into school, friendships, and every part of life.

Building Discipline

Discipline and respect are at the heart of martial arts. Students sharpen focus, practice self-control, and build resilience — skills that help them succeed at home, in school, and beyond.

Building Self-Defense

Students gain practical skills to stay safe in the real world, while also learning the wisdom to know when — and when not — to use them.

Building Strong Bodies

Every class gets kids moving — building strength, flexibility, and coordination through fun, fitness-focused martial arts. Kids gain endurance, balance, and healthy habits that keep fitness engaging for life.

Building Leaders

Our instructors are more than teachers — they’re role models. With guidance and encouragement, we help kids grow into confident leaders on and off the mat.

Building Community

At Pro Black Belt Academy, every student belongs. From new friendships to supportive families, our community is a place where kids feel safe, supported, and motivated to succeed.
