At ASKJ we teach a customized system of martial arts techniques known as the 5 Circle System. The 5 Circle System is an integration of techniques from numerous martial arts, including Taekwondo, Karate, Judo, and Jiu-Jitsu. Classes are grouped by age and rank, and students learn in the traditional group setting. However, individual instruction is also available upon request. Achievement at ASKJ is not measured in championships or trophies. Instead, achievement is measured in terms of accomplishing personal goals, conquering fear, and achieving personal excellence. Grandmaster Byrne takes great pride in the efforts and achievements of his students, not simply within the martial arts arena but also in their personal lives. He and the staff at ASKJ are wholly dedicated to teaching not simply the martial arts, but the tenets of personal excellence as well. ASKJ also offers a state of the art After School Program that offers an excellent alternative to traditional daycare. Students learn self-defense, respect, confidence, and self-control all before their parents leave work. ASKJ provides transportation from most surrounding schools and daily classes include martial arts instruction, anti-bully training, supervised homework, various fitness activities, and much more! ASKJ is the only school in Nebraska licensed to offer Cage Fitness classes. Cage Fitness combines high intensity interval training with Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) to provide an exciting, effective, and challenging (but not impossible) workout! Despite the name, there's no fighting, partners, contact, or getting in a cage. Just a challenging workout with an MMA feel. These classes are great for men and women of ALL ages and fitness levels!
