Welcome To Rising Phoenix
ABOUT US
Rising Phoenix Martial Arts is located in the North Texas Area in three cities: Weatherford, Saginaw, and White Settlement.
In October 2007, Mr. Stallaby formed Rising Phoenix Martial Arts. The art we teach is a blend of Aikido, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Ju Jutsu, Judo, Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do, Kali/Escrima, Kenpo, Muay Thai, Tae Kwon Do, and Wrestling.
We do not train just for sport or exercise. Though these are by-products of what we do, we train for self defense. We have over 100 self defenses to protect you against attacks such as grabs, punches, kicks, throws, pushes, hair pulls, club attacks, knife attacks, gun attacks, multiple opponents, and while down on the ground.
The weapons we use are everyday weapons such as the Cane, Stick, and Knife. Traditional Weapons such as the Staff, Nunchaku, and 3 Section Staff are taught at the Black Belt level. Tai Chi Chuan is also taught at the Black Belt level.
We are non-traditional in our Philosophy and training methods. As with all Martial Arts, students training with us will develop self confidence, self control, and self discipline. We also instill into our students respect for authority, courtesy towards others, and humility.
