What is Taekwondo? Taekwondo has been in development during the 5000 year long history of Korea, being called by several different names over the course of time. Taekwondo today shares many similarities with different martial arts styles of countries surrounding Korea, like Japan and China. Techniques and tactics were assimilated from these countries for increased effectiveness in combat.
What is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu? In the late 1920's, Grand Master Helio Gracie created Gracie or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu after he realized that he was physically too frail to utilize the traditional Japanese techniques.
Proven over the last 80 years to be the most reliable system for a smaller person to defeat a larger, more athletic opponent, the techniques of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu are based on precise timing and effective use of leverage so that virtually anyone can do them, man or woman, regardless of size or athletic ability.

What is Hojutsu-Ryu? Hojutsu-Ryu is the ancient Japanese phrase for "the Art of Gunnery." As practiced today, Hojutsu-Ryu is the combination of the Modern Technique of the Pistol and traditional Japanese budo. Hojutsu trains in various firearms, including handgun, rifle and shotgun; we also train in unarmed defense, various impact weapons, edged weapons and ground fighting.

Having been a student at 3 jiu jitsu academies while living in Maryland, I can safely say that Kurt, the owner, is among the best when it comes instruction. He is extremely attentive, knowledgable, and dedicated to helping his students (myself included) learn proper technique.
The academy is immaculate and there is a consistent effort made to keep it that way. I can't say enough good things and I'm thrilled to have the privilege to learn from someone who genuinely cares about me and my results.

My kids and I have been students at USFMA since March of 2013 and the only regret I have is that we didn't start sooner. This is a top notch school that not only teaches martial arts but also teaches valuable life skills such as courtesy, respect, discipline and honor. The Fuhrmann family welcomes you into their family when you join their school. The instructors are wonderful and the other students are great too! If you are looking for a school that will not only teach you martial arts but help you become a better human being then this is the place for you!
