• Don’t think the Reding brothers are just teaching Denton folk how to fight.

    For the co-owners of this local martial arts studio, the disciplines they teach — personally and through the studio’s faculty — are about cultivating intention, self awareness and maturity. “We believe the practice of martial arts should always be functional,” brothers Mark, owner, and Nick say on the studio website. “Our classes teach both the technical and street sides of combat, with an eye toward real-world self defense … We’re passionate about focusing our diversity into achieving our common goal: to become bettermartial artists, and thereby better people.” All ages and abilities can study the forms taught at the studio: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu; Jeet Kune Du concepts; Filipino Martial arts; and American Kenpo karate. The studio offers some wrestling and fitness classes as well as Muay Thai boxing.
