A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY

At AKI Mixed Martial Arts, we believe that becoming a martial artist is more than just learning techniques—it’s a transformative journey that sharpens the mind, strengthens the body, and cultivates the spirit.

Our philosophy is rooted in the seven principles of the Samurai Code: Honesty, Integrity, Politeness, Loyalty, Compassion, Courage, and Justice. These timeless values, once upheld by legendary warriors, form the foundation of our training, helping students develop mental resilience, physical strength, and unwavering character.

Our real-world self-defense curriculum is designed for maximum effectiveness. We focus on proven, practical mixed martial arts techniques, eliminating outdated forms such as katas and traditional weapons like nunchakus, bo staff, and kamas. At AKI, every movement has a purpose, ensuring our students are prepared for real-life situations with skills that truly matter.

Through our instruction we share with

our students the code of the samurai which are:

HONESTY

Faithful to the truth

INTEGRITY

Doing the right thing

COMPASSION

Do good to others

LOYALTY

Devotion and dedication

POLITENESS  

Show good manners to others

COURAGE

Face danger or pain without showing fear

JUSTICE

Be fair and right with others
