Modern Martial Arts & Family Fitness Center is the home of a vibrant community of people who care about self improvement and each other. Based in Clarksville, we are building a family where everyone can grow and thrive. Whether you are interested in competition, self-defense, fitness, or just want a new social circle to explore, we are your new gym.
How many of these smiling faces will be on hand to train tonight? Normal schedule today and tomorrow. It'll be cold outside. But the Jiu-Jitsu will be hot tonight!
We remain open for all scheduled classes tonight. We do urge caution and discretion for our families tonight though. Allow extra time for travel if you plan to train tonight. See you on the mats! ~Coach Don
Don't let the cold air throw you! We resume normal classes tonight for all age groups. Exercise caution and plan your travel accordingly. Fort Campbell Blvd. is mostly clear. Side roads are definitely on a case-by-case basis. See you on the mats! ~Coach Don
Out of concern for the safety of our students and coaches, Modern Martial Arts and Family Fitness Center cancels all classes for today. We will evalute road conditions tomorrow to determine operating status. Like and share to help others see this post. Be safe, stay warm, and come train with us when we are able to resume our normal schedule. ~Coach Don
Do you have goals, or merely dreams? Dreams only become reality when you define them, plan for them, and follow through.
You can achieve your goals with consistency, commitment, and accountability.
As a Jiu-Jitsu coach, I have come to believe total wellness addresses four major components: mind, body, spirit, and tribe. Setting goals and making constant improvements in these four areas will improve your overall wellness and quality of life.
Using this system here are some of my 2023 achievements:
Mind
Completed 24 semester hours toward my next master’s degree
Obtained three new certifications
Body
Improved Army Combat Fitness Score from 534 to 575
Reduced average resting heart rate from 72 to 59 bpm
Spirit
Devoted 30 or more minutes to Bible reading, prayer, reflection and meditation each morning
Provided monthly worship opportunities for Soldiers serving Reserve duties
Tribe
Volunteered to visit home-bound patients weekly to provide companionship and encouragement
Began mentoring a diverse group of Gen Z / iGen young people
There is more in store for 2024. I want to bring others with me on a journey of self-improvement across all four quadrants of wellness. Message me for a free template to aid you in goal development. For the first ten responses, I'll also schedule a complimentary 45-minute, in person consultation.
New Year's Day Open Mat Jan. 1, 2024. 1 p.m. Until?
Mochi Ceremony and Pot Luck! Roll, Eat, Celebrate. Bring a coat to launch our coat drive. Accepting new or gently used warm outerwear for our neighbors in need.
Come on back and train! All classes resume normal schedule as of tonight, Dec. 15. Restoring power after Saturday's tornado was no small task! Hats off to those who worked tirelessly in the aftermath!
Power crews continue repairs. Our plaza is in one of the few areas left to restore electicity. We fully anticipate returning to our normal schedule Friday, Dec. 15. Thank you for your continued patience during this time of recovery and healing in our city.
As of 8:30 am Tuesday the school remains without power. We remain closed tonight. We will monitor and update as appropriate. ~Coach Don
As the city of Clarksville is still cleaning up from Saturday's tornado, the school is still without power. Classes are cancelled tonight. We will keep you all updated when power comes back on and classes resume.
We pray for all who suffered loss in this devastating storm. We pray for those working tirelessly to aid all in need. We know power crews are working urgently to restore power. At the moment, we are without power. Once the school lights return, we will post an update. Reach out if we can assist!
Closed Thanksgiving Day - Normal Schedule Friday and Saturday.

🥋🚺 Empowerment Through Self-Defense: Jiu-Jitsu for Women 🥋🚺
Classes held Mondays and Wednesdays (Soon to be Fridays too) at a discounted priced if opting into Women's Jiu Jitsu Specifically!

In a world where personal safety is paramount, it's essential for everyone, regardless of gender, to have the tools and knowledge to protect themselves. Today, we want to spotlight the significance of women's self-defense and the incredible effectiveness of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, especially when facing larger opponents.
Jiu-Jitsu is not just a martial art; it's a lifestyle, and an empowering one at that. It teaches you not only how to defend yourself physically but also how to stay calm under pressure, think strategically, and leverage your opponent's weaknesses.
One of the most remarkable aspects of Jiu-Jitsu is that it doesn't rely on brute strength. Instead, it focuses on leverage, technique, and the ability to control and submit an opponent, regardless of their size. This is particularly invaluable for women who may find themselves in situations where they need to defend themselves against a larger aggressor.
So, if you've ever considered self-defense training, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu might be the perfect fit. It's a journey of empowerment, self-discovery, and learning to overcome physical and mental challenges.
Remember, self-defense is not about living in fear; it's about living with confidence. Knowledge is power, and knowing how to protect yourself can make all the difference. We encourage women everywhere to explore the world of self-defense and consider Jiu-Jitsu as a path to empowerment.
If you have any questions or would like to discuss how Jiu-Jitsu can benefit your self-defense journey, feel free to reach out. Let's empower each other, one roll at a time! 💪🌟
Hope you all have a happy and safe Sunday!
🥋The gi teaches us precision and control, much like mastering the fundamentals of a language.
And then there's no-gi, where speed and athleticism take the spotlight - a bit like speaking a different dialect.
We train no-gi Specifically on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:00 PM and optionally for all open mats (Monday - Saturday) held at Modern Martial Arts & Family Fitness Center right here in Clarksville!

Today I hosted an EOD unit for some Jiu-Jitsu time at the gym. Great folks, they put a lot of effort into learning. We made some new friends and I think they will join the tribe. I am just happy to still have gas in the tank to grapple after running three miles before teaching.
Mind, body, spirit, tribe!
8 miles and change after church this morning. Nice ruckmarch along the Greenway.
