Thank
you for visiting the Ruyter’s Academy of Martial
Arts website. Our goal is to provide an informative
site for new and old students filled with
daily and weekly updates about our school.
Whether you’re interested
in lessons for yourself or someone else,
you’ve definitely come to the right
place.
With
all the choices of schools in the area,
you may wonder what makes Ruyter’s
Academy
of Martial Arts
so unique.
Or, what makes our school so different?
There are several reasons why,
but here are a few:
First,
all of our classes are divided by age
and skill level. Our younger children
are separated from the older kids and
adults have their own classes as well.
We believe that in order to properly motivate
and teach students of different age and
skill levels, our classes must be divided
accordingly. However, we also believe
that it is healthy for students of all
levels to periodically train together.
We have seminars and special events that
bring all the levels together giving them
the opportunity to learn and motivate
each other. This completes the circle
of martial arts education and opens up
a new aspect of mastering skills.
Next,
we believe that in order to progress,
students must get top-flight instruction.
To make that happen, we have several professional
instructors at our school all trained
under Master Ed Ruyter. This ensures that
we have a very low student/teacher ratio
in all of our classes and each instructor
is teaching the same thing.
At
Ruyter's Academy Of Martial Arts, we believe in an
environment where discipline and tradition
are in balance with family and fun. We
are always evolving to pique our student’s
interest with fun and exciting drills
and national tournament competitions to
stay motivated all the time. And while
our curriculum is from a very traditional
form of martial arts, we’ve also
included several scholastic and character
goals to promote discipline in all areas
of our lives. While training at our school,
students are continually rewarded for
their accomplishment in the form of a
new belt each time they progress to a
new level.
Again,
welcome to our site and please feel free
to look around. If you have any question or would
like to schedule a tour of the school,
you may contact us at any time.
Thank
you.
