Our new innovative and exciting martial arts after school program runs from dismissal of school until 6pm Monday through Friday, including picking them up on early dismissal days (1/2 days). We will pick the students up at their school and bring them to USA Self Defense Centers in Lockport. Parents will pick them up between 5:45 and 6pm. Our Martial Arts School has been serving the Lockport Community for the past 10 years.

What We Are NOT

We are not a day care center or babysitting service. We are a professional martial arts school providing a martial arts program consisting of a structured learning environment where your child will work on academics, physical fitness, and learning the martial arts.

Our after school program Director is Ken Meier. He is a tenured teacher at Alden Central School who is certified in Elementary Education and in Special Education from Daemen College. He also has a Masters Degree in Remedial Reading from Medaille College and is a NYS Certified Coach. In addition he is a 6th Degree Black Belt in Kenpo Karate, and a 2nd Degree Black Belt in Judo and Ju Jitsu.
Our Head Martial Arts Instructor is Ernest G. McPeek, J.D. who has a Bachelors Degree in Communications and a Law Degree from SUNY at Buffalo and is a 9th Degree Black Belt in Karate, an 8th Degree in Ju Jitsu and a 6th Degree in Judo.
