Ohana Martial Arts: Building Confidence, Character, and Community in Las Vegas
Let's be honest — raising confident, respectful, and resilient kids feels harder than ever. Between packed schedules, constant screen time, and social pressures that didn't exist when we were growing up, many parents worry their children aren't developing the inner strength and discipline they'll need to succeed. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone.
That's exactly why Ohana Martial Arts exists. For almost a decade, we've been partnering with families across Las Vegas, Henderson, and Southern Highlands to help children discover their potential through martial arts. But here's what makes us different: we know that real martial arts training goes far beyond learning kicks and punches. It's about building character from the inside out.
At Ohana, "ohana" means family, and that's not just a name — it's our promise. Every student who walks through our doors becomes part of a supportive community where they can grow at their own pace, build genuine confidence, and develop the life skills that matter most. Our certified instructors don't just teach techniques; they mentor young people to become the leaders, friends, and family members you're proud to call your own.

Our instructors are more than highly skilled martial artists — they're mentors who genuinely care about each student's success. Safety is never compromised in our classes, and every lesson is designed to build confidence in a supportive, structured environment where children can take appropriate risks and grow from their experiences.

🧸 ISLAND DRAGONS
Toddler Martial Arts
(Ages 3–6)
If you have a toddler, you already know they have boundless energy — the challenge is helping them use it constructively. Our toddler martial arts program is specially designed for little ones who are just beginning to understand concepts like listening, taking turns, and following directions.
In our safe, playful environment, toddlers learn basic movements that improve their coordination and balance while having a blast. But here's what parents love most: these classes teach essential social skills that make life easier at home and in preschool. We focus on age-appropriate activities that capture their attention and imagination, turning learning into an adventure.
Don't be surprised if you notice changes quickly. Many parents tell us their toddlers start listening better, sharing more willingly, and showing newfound confidence after just a few weeks with us. It's amazing what happens when children feel supported and celebrated for their efforts.
Our patient, experienced instructors know exactly how to work with this energetic age group, creating positive experiences that build a foundation for future learning and growth.
🥋OHANA KIDS
Kids Martial Arts
(Ages 6–12)
This is where the magic really happens. If your child struggles with focus at school, feels shy in social situations, or seems to lack confidence, you're looking at the program that could change everything. Our kids' martial arts classes are where lifelong character traits are developed — discipline, respect, perseverance, and genuine self-confidence.
Here's what sets martial arts apart from team sports: every child progresses at their own pace, and every child can succeed. Whether your son or daughter is naturally athletic or still developing coordination, whether they're outgoing or more reserved, our experienced instructors know how to bring out their unique strengths.
Parents consistently share stories that warm our hearts. Children who were once afraid to speak up in class become confident leaders. Kids who struggled with anger management learn self-control that amazes their teachers. Students who felt left out in other activities find their place in our supportive community.
The best part? These improvements don't stay on the mat. Parents report better behavior at home, improved grades at school, and children who tackle challenges with a "can-do" attitude they never had before. When kids feel capable and confident in one area of life, it naturally spreads to everything else they do.
🧑🎓 KAHUNAS
Teen Martial Arts
(Ages 13+)
The teenage years bring unique challenges that no parent manual can fully prepare you for — peer pressure, identity struggles, and the constant need for positive role models who actually "get it." Our teen martial arts program provides exactly what young people need during these formative years.
Through structured, challenging training, teenagers build both physical and mental strength. They learn self-defense skills that give them confidence in real-world situations, but more importantly, they develop the inner strength to make good decisions even when no one is watching.
What makes our teen program special is the emphasis on leadership and personal responsibility. We don't just teach techniques; we help young adults discover their potential as leaders and positive influences in their schools and communities. Many of our teen students become assistant instructors, learning valuable mentorship skills while building their resumes and character.
The teens who train with us learn to stand tall, speak with confidence, and believe in themselves. They find a healthy outlet for stress and frustration while connecting with peers who share similar values. For many families, our teen program becomes a turning point — the place where young people transform from uncertain adolescents into confident, capable young adults ready to take on the world.

KAHUNAS
Adult Martial Arts
Let's face it — traditional gym workouts can get monotonous, and finding time for fitness feels nearly impossible with everything on your plate. Our adult martial arts program offers something completely different: a challenging, engaging workout that strengthens both your body and mind while teaching practical skills you'll actually use.
Whether you're looking to get back in shape, learn effective self-defense, or simply find a healthy way to blow off steam after long days, you'll discover that martial arts training offers benefits you never expected. Students tell us it's the most stress relief they've ever experienced, and unlike other fitness routines, it never gets boring because you're constantly learning new techniques and progressing toward new goals.
Don't worry if you've never done martial arts before — complete beginners are not only welcome, they're our specialty. Our instructors excel at meeting you exactly where you are and helping you progress at a pace that feels challenging but achievable. You'll be amazed at how quickly you develop coordination, strength, and confidence you didn't know you had.
The friendships you'll build here are real and lasting. There's something special about training alongside people who are also committed to personal growth and self-improvement. Many students tell us their training partners become some of their closest friends, and the confidence they gain on the mat transforms how they handle challenges in every area of life.
LEADERSHIP
Invitation-Only Curriculum
At Ohana Martial Arts, we believe that learning to punch and kick is just the beginning. Our comprehensive leadership curriculum teaches students the skills they'll need to succeed in life — responsibility, teamwork, goal-setting, communication, and problem-solving.
This isn't just theory; it's hands-on learning that happens naturally throughout their training. Students learn to help newer members, take ownership of their progress, and support their teammates during challenging moments. These experiences build real leadership abilities that serve them well at school, at home, and eventually in their careers.
Parents especially value this program because it reinforces the values you work hard to instill at home. Instead of fighting against different messages your children receive elsewhere, you have a true partner in developing young people of character. We see ourselves as an extension of your family's commitment to raising responsible, caring individuals who make positive contributions to their communities.
The leadership skills students develop here aren't just impressive on college applications — they're life skills that help young people become the kind of adults you're proud to know.

Voices of Our Ohana
The best way to understand what Ohana Martial Arts can do for your family is to hear from other parents who've watched their children transform before their eyes. These stories happen every day, and they never get old for us.
One parent recently shared, "My daughter used to hide behind me whenever we met new people. Now she introduces herself confidently and even volunteers to help in her classes at school. The instructors at Ohana didn't just teach her martial arts — they helped her find her voice." Another parent told us, "My son was struggling with anger issues and getting in trouble constantly. Six months at Ohana, and his teachers are asking what changed. He's learned self-control and respect that goes way beyond the dojo."
These transformations are why we do what we do. Every success story represents a child who discovered their potential, a family that grew stronger, and a future that looks brighter than before.
