“You see exactly who the person is. You really don’t know someone, I feel like, until you’ve rolled with them.
“I see smaller more easily intimidated people becoming more comfortable and then I see the bigger cockier person become a little bit more humble because they are getting beat up by people much smaller than them,”
“I myself lose five pounds of water weight every class. One guy lost over 160 pounds doing Jiu-Jitsu.”

About our Programs
Self-Defense and Combatives
Get comfortable being uncomfortable! After learning how to fight and defend yourself, everything else seems easy.
Our goal is to teach you the FULL SPECTRUM of fighting and self-defense. Projectile Range > Striking Range > Grappling Range > Ground fighting from top OR bottom position - these are all environments you should have proficiency in to survive in this world!
You won't learn how to be the next MMA Champion; however, you will learn realistic, reliable, and repeatable concepts and techniques that anyone - no matter the size, can digest and apply!
Women's Self-Defense
The fact is...women have SO MUCH MORE to worry about than most men.
Whether managing distance to stay away, or fighting off of your back on the ground - women MUST be able to SURVIVE and have a fighting chance to go from potential victim to the AGGRESSOR!
The techniques we teach are realistic. We take undeniable and proven concepts to teach women how to survive multiple scenarios so that they can be more confident anywhere be it in the City, at College, or simply walking to their cars in broad daylight.
Kids and Teen Anti-Bullying/Bully Prevention
If you want your child to thrive in today's world, we MUST understand that it is MUCH more difficult today than it was when we were younger. Kids and Teens are addicted to insta-gratitude and will seemingly do anything to chase views. Our children have to face bullies in school, then have it follow them home to be memorialized on social media.
As much as we teach them to be accepting, peaceful, and compassionate the facts are that bullies PREY on people they identify as non-threatening. It is our job to ensure they gain the CONFIDENCE and ABILITY to "walk softly and carry a big stick".
Failure to do this and live in a fairy-tale world almost guarantees depression, low self-esteem, and lifetime of living under the potential for physical threat.
We owe it to our youth to be real with them.
-
Anti-Bullying does NOT always equal PHYSICAL repercussion - we teach deescalation ALONG with physical self-defense -
We do not encourage physical violence - we encourage an escalation of defense - The goal is to protect ourselves, and to protect the bullies from themselves

Tailored for the audience in either a large or small group setting
"The Compound is a phenomenal training location with fantastic instruction in BJJ, Muay Thai and Judo. They have the most mat space of any martial arts training facility in the area. Very family friendly with a great kids program, there is open mat every Saturday with doors open to the community. Its been my "go-to" Saturday training spot to get in some rolls with great people from multiple academies. If you're new or experienced, this is one of the best places to train in Maryland..."

Parent and Martial Artist
"Outstanding! The instructors are very patient and knowledgeable. They do an excellent job of not only leading/coaching the entire class but providing that 1 on 1 (individual) guidance and assistance. They are definitely not in it for "just the money"...but more for building a school of talented martial artist."

"Great gym with a very family friendly environment. The coaches are encouraging and very knowledgeable about each of their crafts and are willing to help you reach your goal; whether it be basic self defense or preparing for competition. 100% recommend, especially for the price that this gym offers all of its classes at, it would be foolish not to train here."
