The best self-defense schools in Mississippi teach children, teens, and adults conflict resolution, only defending oneself physically if necessary. Rather than simply reacting to an attack, self-defense tactics actually involve discouraging an attack in the first place. Tiger Rock trainers teach that you can do this by being aware of your surroundings, carrying yourself with confidence, listening to your instincts, being assertive (not aggressive), and knowing how to get yourself out of a situation if necessary.

The health benefits of martial arts for children include physical growth in strength, balance, and overall coordination.

Yes we are, which means that we have access to the latest and greatest in the Martial Arts world. From tools, to equipment, to techniques, we have the most updated of it all.

While our base art is a striking art (which helps control the distance of a fight), we need students to be well rounded, so we teach all-encompassing Martial Arts. This means that we teach techniques from all the martial arts to ensure students know how to defend themselves in any scenario. Our general focus is on grappling, joint manipulation, striking, and wrist locks.

Yes! Pretty much as it sounds, rock climbing walls are man-made walls built with specialized, assorted hand-holds and footpegs designed to replicate the feeling of a natural rock face. Tiger Rock Martial Arts Academy proudly brings you a local rock climbing gym in our state-of-the-art facility! Our indoor wall challenges condition you in rock climbing, preparing you for greater indoor climbing challenges or to transition to outdoor, natural climbs. Our unique gym extends twelve feet high and focuses on sideways movements and developing bouldering climbing techniques.

Parkour is a type of free-running in which you run on a path, as fast as possible, using full focus to overcome the obstacles along the path. All the while, you have to prevent yourself from falling or slipping. In short, it is an extreme sport that requires constant mental attention and complete physical control over the body. Sound intriguing? Head to Tiger Rock Martial Arts Academy where our parkour gym is ready for you!
