We use basic training, which includes simple punching and kicking drills and Ninjutsu stances (Kamae). We also have simple obstacle courses to help students gain good hand and eye coordination, balance, and more precise motor function in the muscles of the arms and legs. We also teach basic self-defense techniques that are taught on their level.
We have physical games that help build their cardiovascular health and getting them some good exercise. We also teach important fundamental morals, which include learning how to be a good person, having good manners, how to obey and respect their parents, teachers and how to share with their peers. We teach a stranger to be aware program to all our students.
Kobushi-Do, (children ages 6 to 15). Kobushi-Do is an exclusive children’s form of Manabi-Masho Ju-Jitsu, Ninjutsu, Aikido, Judo, and Karate. This art was created to make learning martial arts more effective, easier, and fun for children. Kobushi-Do is a Southern School of Martial Arts Jr. Manabi-Masho Ju-Jitsu.
Our children's class teaches specialized self-defense, general life lessons, how to be supportive, how to be kind honest and respectful, how to defend against and deal with a bully, all while gaining self-discipline, self-confidence, self-esteem, self-respect, and physical fitness.

Manabi-Masho Ju-Jitsu, teens and adults (ages 16 and up). Manabi-Masho Ju-Jitsu is an exclusive and modern form of Classic Ju-Jitsu. This is strictly a self defense martial art. This martial art also has modern Ninjutsu, Judo, Aikido and Karate blended into the art for a very dynamic and effective blend. We also blend several select techniques from Eskrima, Kali, JKD, Krav Maga and Russian Martial Arts. This is a well-suited mixed martial art for adults wanting to learn effective self-defense and a real-world martial art that is much more than just punching and kicking. There are many weapon defenses and real-life scenario training. Sensei Murdock has trained military personnel, law officers, NC State Highway Patrol, County Sheriff, and several local Police Departments. This is an effective and specialized self-defense that is great for anyone to learn.

Teens ages 16 and 17 will be evaluated to determine if their behavior is good enough and if they are mature enough to enroll in to the Adult Program. Any teen who is determined not to be mature enough or has childish behavior will be enrolled into the Kobushi-Do class until they are determined mature enough to enter the adult program.
