Jesse's Martial Arts Academy

Jesse’s Martial Arts Academy is one of the best and most comprehensive martial arts academies in the Chicagoland area. Our academy specializes in real-life self-defense training and is dedicated to developing members’ confidence and ability to defend themselves against any type of attack at any range.

We specialize in Shorei & Goju Karate which originated from two major Okinawan martial arts. It emphasizes the ancient theory of “No Limitations” of knowledge or technique. It contains every type of strike, block, kick, wrist lock, arm lock, arm bar, sweep, takedown or pressure point which can be used. This gives the student the option of choosing which best fits his or her physique, personality, and situation. The karate style of Shorei & Goju has something for everyone.
