MARTIAL ARTS STYLES
Martial arts training includes punching, kicking, blocking, take-downs, and wrestling. Some styles focus on one of these elements and at some martial arts schools, you’ll see that focus. So you may only do stand-up striking work or you may only do groundwork. At Life Ki-do, however, we blend all of these elements into our own unique curriculum so that students become well-rounded martial artists.
GROUND TRAINING
Systema / Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu / Wrestling
Ground training is a crucial component in a comprehensive martial arts program. Our students learn and practice how to fall and roll safely, effective takedowns, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and wrestling techniques, as well as Systema strikes and breaks from the ground. Aside from the practical self-defense benefits, the Systema style ground skills can also greatly enhance a student’s self-confidence and ability “to go with the flow.”
STAND-UP TRAINING
Karate / Sparring / Systema
We incorporate moves, drills, and freestyle sparring from a variety of martial arts styles so that students may develop stand-up blocking, punching, and kicking skills.
However, our emphasis in stand-up training is on the Systema principles of fluidity and partnering that involves mutual care and respect.
LIFE KI-DO MARTIAL ARTS STYLES
SYSTEMA
Systema in South Austin, is a unique martial art that emphasizes natural movement and efficiency through breath training and proper body mechanics. This art teaches students to react instinctively with adaptability, precision, and power. Rather than rigid techniques, Systema focuses on leveraging individual strengths and instinctive reactions, making it an ideal practice for enhancing daily life flow. We are very thankful to bring the transformative experience of Systema to the Austin community. More about Life Ki-do Systema.
FREESTYLE KARATE & KICKBOXING MOVES
We use freestyle karate sparring as a tool to practice implementing martial arts moves with a partner in a respectful and collaborative manner.
BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) focuses on ground skills and submission techniques. Unlike many other martial arts, BJJ doesn't rely heavily on striking; instead, it focuses on grappling and positional dominance. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is often referred to as the “gentle art” as it focuses more on leverage, technique, and proper body mechanics compared to power and speed, allowing smaller partners to be effective against larger partners.

SELF-DEFENSE
In addition to learning the simplest and most practical physical self-defense skills, students also develop self-awareness, situational awareness, nervous system regulation, and interpersonal skills to best help diffuse a potential conflict.
