JMAC Continues to Follow COVID Precautions



Even though the Governor's executive orders have been ruled unconstitutional, we are still bound by regulations and respect for the health and safety of others. We want to get back to business as normal, but for now we are still limited by:

  • Washtenaw County advisory rulings
  • Michigan Department of Public Health rulings
  • Common Sense
  • A desire to help control the spread of COVID

It still makes sense to sanitize our hands, disinfect, ventilate, socially distance and mask. We still want to protect one another. We will always work to protect the safety and health of our students, and now is no exception. JMAC is a place to thrive!

If you’d like to learn more or arrange a time to watch class, call (734) 720-0330 or email us at info@japanesemartialartscenter.com

Ready for a workout but worried about COVID? Karate at JMAC is a smart option



As we all try to get our lives back on track, karate can be a great way to return to your best self. You’ll come out feeling more fit, have a better sense of self-worth, and be more confident. And you can be confident knowing JMAC takes your safety seriously.

So how do you practice karate without “hands-on” work? First, there’s:

  • Learning the basics – stances, punches, blocks, and kicks. You can’t master any new skill until you’ve properly mastered the basics. 
  • Kata (form) training – choreographed movements to train your body and mind. Instruction and practice help develop proper form, precision, and fluidity. They also isolate and train different muscle groups for a great workout. 

Not to mention, intangibles like self-confidence, respect, and focus!

JMAC offers martial arts training and self-defense in Ann Arbor. We’ve been providing Ann Arbor and the Southeast Michigan area with classes for all ages and sizes for over 14 years!
