WHAT IS NCMA?

NCMA is an adult Non-Contact Martial Arts program designed to get you and keep you fit, flexible, strong, and sharp while avoiding the rigors of physical contact that can lead to bruising, strains, physical stress, and intense competition.

WHO WILL BE TEACHING THE NCMA CLASS?

The school's chief instructor Greg Gargas, who has more than 35 years of Martial Arts experience, as well as other experienced Gargas Martial Arts Black Belts.

IS IT WORTHWHILE TO PRACTICE MARTIAL ARTS WITHOUT CONTACT?

Absolutely!  The classes will be challenging and will consist of stretching, strength training, abdominal workouts, bag and pad work, developing solid punch and kick combinations as well as learning Kata.  If you're not familiar with KATA, you'll find that it will have you moving in ways you thought not possible and teach you how to generate energy (chi) from your body.

WHAT IS THE ATTIRE FOR THE NCMA CLASS?

Sweatpants, T-shirts (no non-martial art writings or graphics) and bare feet.  Wearing a traditional gi is not mandatory, but may be comfortable for this class.

WILL NCMA HELP ME FEND OFF A STREET THUG?

Yes.  Not only will NCMA develop your punching and kicking power and accuracy, it will also teach you about the proper mindset required to fend off an attack.

WILL THERE BE BELT PROMOTIONS AND CAN I ATTAIN A BLACK BELT?

No,  NCMA is not a Black Belt curriculum, but you will still learn much and become more powerful and fit.

WHAT IF I WANT SOME CONTACT LIKE SPARRING AND/OR WRESTLING?

If you would like this, you will be able to join in on sparring and wrestling classes with the students from the 3 Point Martial Arts Program.
