Our Adult Martial Arts program brings men and women 13 years and older together for cutting-edge self-defense classes and total-body results like you've never seen before. Kempo Karate is a traditional form of self-defense that relies on powerful strikes and impeccable timing.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art, a combat sport, a self-defense system, and a great way to build robust physical fitness. Here at Stryker Martial Arts Academy, we are proud to give men and women across Bristol the opportunity to engage with the Machado style of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu through our fun, accessible Jiu Jitsu classes!
Excellent school for both kids and adults. Offers Kempo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Kick-boxing, Krav-Maga, and MMA Training. My son has been taking Kempo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for 3 years now and I've been in BJJ classes for about 1.5 years and we both love it. The instructors make everyone feel welcome and create an atmosphere that feels more like a family than any gym membership could.

SMAA is a great school to learn martial arts. Mr. Massie and the staff make you feel like family the very first time you step on the mat. Great for kids and adults to train. Highly recommend!

Doing it for 8 years and not planning to stop! The biggest reason is the atmosphere of amazing instructors and students topped off with great curriculum made by Master Machado himself! Plenty of techniques for everyone with modifications and more advanced skills for upper levels. Makes learning fun and easy to digest while providing top notch detail with every single technique. You will get attached to the instructors and love the training!

The trainers are very professional and nice, and the other students there are respectful, and have even taught me a few things, in three days, THREE DAYS I learned so much, passing guard, umpa bottom mount escape, captain morgan armbar, crucifix submission, kimura, and so much more! You can spar or "roll" as they call it at the end or the start of class, depending on whatever happens, then you learn moves, escapes, submissions and so on, and then you should "roll" for the rest of class. The trainers are very nice and if you're stuck on something they'll do their best to go the extra mile... there

Great atmosphere, strong lineage and a great place to learn and improve your life through martial arts. Professor Massie is not only a leader on the mats but at life coaching as well. Great place to attain your self-defense and fitness goals.

Styker MAA goes beyond just teaching your kids real world self-defense and build their confidence. They teach morals and values that go beyond the mats. You couldn't ask for more or find a better place to train.
