BJJ class times →The valley’s original Muay Thai kickboxing program. Real pad work, Thai heavy bags and clinch — striking for self-defense, conditioning or the ring.
Muay Thai class times →Six black belts and home of the original Roanoke Judo Club, the area’s oldest program. Throws, takedowns and balance that carry over to everything else.
