About TMA
The name Trinity is based upon the highest three. If you take all the Martial Arts in the world you can categorize them into three groups, Striking, Grappling, and Weapons. At Trinity Martial Arts the student will learn a foundation based belt ranking system that will progressively add more difficult techniques and mental requirements. The three styles the student will learn are Tae Kwon Do, Arnis, and Jiu Jitsu.
Tae Kwon Do
Tae Kwon Do comes from Korea. It is an ancient Martial Art which focuses on long, low stances and high kicks. The system is called Modern Chang Moo Kwan, (a clear path) an updated form of old Tae Kwon Do that can find its root before World War II; it has more hand techniques and longer lower stances then found in Tae Kwon Do today. Tae Kwon Do encorporates self-defense techniques by incorporating real life situations.
Arnis
Modern Arnis is an art from Grand Master Remy Presas a native Filipino who traveled around the Philippines and combined knowledge from all the islands the different styles of escrema, cane fighting, and at its highest levels short sword and knife fighting. This is a soft fluid art which is a great compliment to Tae Kwon Do, known as a hard and powerful art.
Jiu Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has become the fastest growing Martial Art thanks to the fighting shows on TV which is kind of ironic because the direct translation means the “soft art.” The fundamental belief of Jiu Jitsu is to win by not hurting your opponent with submissions. This art mostly focuses on how to protect yourself if you end up on the ground; this looks similar to wrestling but is much different.
Ever Expanding
The world of knowledge is ever expanding and so are we. Our goals are to stay up to date with the most current information of physical fitness science and mental development.

Testimonials
Chris truly has a passion for the martial arts, one that transcends styles. Whether it’s kicking, striking, takedowns, grappling or weapons Chris has the desire to not only learn it all, but to teach it all. I have had the privilege of watching Chris progress in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu over the months and enjoy his attention to detail. He is always there to ask questions; always wanting to make sure his technique is done correctly. Finding a good instructor is hard enough but finding one who embraces multiple styles of martial arts and has the passion for it is even harder. With Chris you will find all three.
