About Warrior Strength Martial Arts

Rooted in Tradition. Built by Community.

Warrior Strength Martial Arts isn’t a gym.
It’s a place shaped by time, pressure, and people who kept showing up.

Since 2010, we’ve been part of the martial arts fabric of Western Washington — teaching Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Filipino Martial Arts (Balintiwak), and Boxing the way they were meant to be taught: with respect for lineage, discipline, and hard-earned knowledge. We don’t chase trends. We don’t dilute the work. What was passed to us, we pass on — honestly and intact.

But tradition alone isn’t what defines us.

This place is built by the community inside it. Kids learning how to stand their ground. Adults finding confidence they didn’t know they had. Fighters refining details most people never see. We train side by side, push each other forward, and hold each other accountable — not because it’s easy, but because it matters.

Every round, every drill, every conversation on the mat is about more than technique. It’s about responsibility. Character. Growth under pressure.

We train hard. We train with intention. And we don’t do it alone.

This is where tradition lives.
This is where community is forged.
This is WARRIOR STRENGTH!
