Learn more about Lightning Kicks

Since Lightning Kicks opened, we’ve been dedicated to changing lives through the power of martial arts. Founded by Amir Khillah in 2001, the school has been guided by the principle of the Peaceful Warrior, which empowers each individual to defend and protect themselves when needed while also striving towards a peaceful existence. Master Khillah opened Lightning Kicks when he was 21 years old as an opportunity to help get kids off the street, to empower those being bullied, and mentor individuals with a passion for the martial arts, and over the past 21 years he has created an environment where all feel welcome and are supported in their journey to become a Peaceful Warrior. It is more than just a martial arts school, it is a family.

As a family-owned business Lightning Kicks takes a great interest in each individual who would like to explore their potential in the martial arts. We have black belts who oversee the BJJHapkido, and Kid’s Martial Arts programs, and Master Khillah, an experienced professional MMA fighter who has fought in both the UFC‘s Ultimate Fighter and Bellator, oversees the MMA program. Master Khillah is also a national taekwondo champion and spent two years as a striking coach for UFC Hall of Famer Matt Hugh’s MMA team HIT Squad. Both programs are welcoming to those who are interested in joining either recreationally or to those who wish to compete. There are ample opportunities for competition both locally and nationally. With their decades of training and competition experience under their belt, our instructors will put you in the best position to succeed. However, each individual must be prepared to work hard, leave their comfort zone and preconceived self-limitations, and learn to accept the rigorous physical and mental challenges our coaches will put you through.

Come enjoy our welcoming environment for any and all interested in the martial arts. Our commitment to the Peaceful Warrior philosophy sets us apart from other schools, and our commitment to helping one another become the best we can be on and off the mat. We hope to see you soon.
