General Program Information

The American Freedom Form Kenbo-Jitsu (AFFKbJ) Karate Programs for Adults and Children at Cunningham's Ugottawanna Martial Arts are designed, first and foremost, to teach modern, practical and effective Self-Defense to increase your safety and your children's safety in today's dangerous world. Our contemporary curriculum and unique methods of teaching have evolved as a result of much conscious examination of real self-defense scenarios and self protection needs. We are very proud to offer the resultant American Freedom Form Kenbo-Jitsu (AFFKbJ) Karate System as a tested and very much alive set of simple but direct, powerful and incredibly effective options and answers to your Personal Protection Self-Defense needs for today and all of your increasingly safe tomorrows.

You should be aware, however, that as important as it is that a good Martial Arts program teach how to effectively defend oneself, there are many additional benefits to be gained from involving yourself or your child in our Cunningham's Ugottawanna Martial Arts AFFKbJ Karate Adult or Junior's program.

Our unique and contemporary methods of teaching are fun and designed to build your total personal strength in Body, Mind and Spirit. While the many benefits to the body (such as increased physical strength, flexibility, improved athleticism, cardiovascular endurance and overall fitness) are accomplished in more obvious manners, much of the increased strength in Mind and Spirit is achieved by building our students from the "inside out". At Cunningham's Ugottawanna Martial Arts, we utilize a philosophy of positive reinforcement to build Self-esteem, Confidence, Discipline and a strong Ugottawanna Attitude. Our unique American Freedom Form Kenbo-Jitsu (AFFKbJ) Warrior's Creed and set of traditional core values and contemporary character attributes, presented as Mr. Cunningham's New Millennium Esoteric Principles, also contribute to the very sound, modern and total "Way of the Ugottawanna Warrior".

Men, Women, Teens, Adults and Children who become part of the Cunningham's Ugottawanna Martial Arts Family are destined to succeed in Personal Protection Self-Defense situations and, indeed, in all aspects of life because we provide them with very direct and incredibly effective personal protection tools and emphasize goal setting, the development of self-esteem, discipline, attitude, respect, commitment to excellence, perseverance and other vitally important life skills.

As you enjoy looking around our web site, you will quickly come to understand that each and every one of the fun, exciting and very special programs provided at Cunningham's Ugottawanna Martial Arts schools are specifically designed to clearly demonstrate that we are totally committed to improving our mission stated on our schools' banners:
