For many students, stepping into the martial arts world begins with a simple goal: learning self-defense, improving fitness, or building confidence. But at some point in every martial artist’s journey, the opportunity to compete arises. Whether it’s a local invitational, a regional tournament, or a national stage, competition offers lessons and experiences you can’t find anywhere else.

Martial arts isn't just about self-defense or physical fitness; it's a

way of life that encompasses discipline, respect, and personal growth.

One of the most exciting aspects of martial arts is the opportunity to

participate in tournaments. These events offer students a unique and

invaluable experience that goes beyond the physical aspects of

training.

We believe that competition is a healthy & fun way for children to push themselves. Throughout the year, Smith’s Martial Arts participates in tournaments all across the country. Some on a national level and some within our region. These are a great way to bust out of your shell & boost that confidence!!
