Details: Our martial arts gym in Murray, UT specializes in the Bihonte (Bee-hon-te) Combativos System, which is a composite group of highly effective developed martial arts systems that combine to form a unique system of martial arts. The Bihonte system has as its core, five unique martial arts systems that each focus on various aspects of hand-to-hand combat. These five systems include Mokuraiken Kempo which is emphasized by lightning fast strikes and low kicks, Jeet Kune Do (Bruce Lee’s method of kickboxing and Wing Chun), ShihKeafma (Filipino Stick and Blade Arts), & Brazilian Jiu-jitsu/BJJ (specifically Pedro Sauer Gracie Jujitsu), and Hai Ki Chi Do (stand up Jiu-Jitsu), each of which was developed and practiced by various martial arts masters and founders who sought to develop one highly effective martial arts system that would incorporate and complement each of the individual systems and yet allow for effective fighting methods which incorporated a blend of striking, kicking, throwing, take downs, submissions, grappling, conditioning, joint locks, individual weapons training, and weapon disarmament. In addition to martial arts training the 54th Street Gym offers Fusion Fit training for men and women which is a unique form of heavy punching bag, focus mitt, thai pad, belly pad, shadow boxing, and plyometrics designed to use the body’s own natural weight for conditioning. It is an excellent way to get in shape, stay in shape, or improve your shape.

Kids Program Detail: Looking for a fun, exciting activity for your kids? Check out our kid’s martial arts in Murray, UT! At Integrated Martial Arts, we believe that the foundation of martial arts training should be a broad one. Our children’s martial arts classes draw upon the same great sources for striking, kicking, grappling, and self-defense as our adult classes, but provide that training in a single, integrated format designed specifically for a younger audience. Students will learn grappling from Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, striking from Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Taekwondo, Kempo and Kali, along with self-defense courses, and anti-bullying skills, all in a format that is fun and safe for kids of all ages. We have several programs for kids. Beginners and Advanced as well as a class that is actually done with the parents if they choose to participate. The Beginner Kid’s/Jr. Grappler’s class is for kids that are 7-15 years of age and who have never done any martial arts classes. In the Jr. Grapplers program, we focus on 30 non-violent self-defense techniques that teach children to “neutralize and negotiate” with the bullies. Verbal assertiveness strategies are a major portion of this curriculum. A child needs absolutely no experience to start, and we guarantee a noticeable increase in your child’s confidence within a few weeks! In addition to the Gracie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, we teach the kids a combination of punching, kicking and simple self-defense skills. The other group is the Kids Advanced for kids 7-15 that have achieved at least a gold belt rank and above. If your child trained in another martial art they may be allowed to participate in this class after an initial assessment period. We want to make sure that every student has a good foundation to allow them to progress with the other kids in the class. Kids in this martial arts class will engage in controlled sparring and grappling. The parent/child class is for kids 4-7. It is done once a week and is often done with the parent so that the parents can work with the child thru the week. We teach the kids basic self-defense techniques while instilling the foundational principles of leverage and control. The secret to the success of this program is that we make the lessons so fun that the kids beg for more!
