Since 1997, Paramount Martial Arts has had one goal: to create personal success stories, one student at a time. After nearly 30 years in Washington State, that mission now has a second home in Central Florida.
Why Paramount
Kajukenbo Tum Pai taught by two 8th-degree Professors, direct in the line of Senior Grand Master Bob Heuer and Grandmaster Steve Larson.
Teaching Krav Maga since 2005 — one of the longest-running programs in the Pacific Northwest, now in Florida.
Students complete monthly homework on humility, respect, responsibility, and self-discipline. Washington schools used parts of it in their own classrooms.
Our Family Kempo class puts kids, teens, and parents on the mat together, earning belts side by side.
Every instructor is certified in the art they teach and attends an instructors college each year. Nearly 100 years of combined experience.
Every instructor, staff member, and volunteer is background-checked, and every instructor is trained and tested on the safety protocols that protect everyone at the school. Paramount is the only NEMAC-certified martial arts school in Seminole County, Florida — and in Thurston County, Washington. Learn more →
The best mats in the industry, a clean and inviting floor, and the most comfortable parent viewing area of any school around.
