Martial Arts Programs Abroad

Hi-Ya! (No, seriously, Hi! Nice to meet you). Martial arts is combat practice with various styles and traditions from around the globe. Originally hailing from Europe, these days the sport is commonly associated with the fighting arts of Eastern Asia. Build up your appetite for dim sum, get ready to sweat, and kick some butt while developing a razor sharp mental focus and physical endurance. If Kung Fu Panda has taught us anything, it’s that with some practice, patience, and self-discipline, anyone can train to become an unstoppable martial arts master. Discover your potential on an adventure abroad that will throw you a real punch!

A Guide to Martial Arts Programs Abroad

Popular Locations

Whether you are looking to train for jui-juitsu in Brazil or fencing/boxing/wrestling in Europe, you can find a martial arts program nearly anywhere in the world.

China. Look no further if you’re ready to explore an expansive country overflowing with cultural diversity, from the massive capital city of Beijing to isolated deserts and the never-ending path along the Great Wall of China to rural communities along the Yangtze River. For an urban adrenaline rush (aka the Kung Fu hustle) adventurers will find excitement among the vibrant and crowded streets of Hong Kong, where Bruce Lee filmed action scenes that popularized Kung Fu moves around the globe.

Thailand. Known as the land of smiles, you’ll be exercising more than your cheekbones through martial arts programs in Thailand. Bangkok will take you for ride amid fast-moving tuk-tuks and markets with strange flavours only a brave martial arts master would attempt to try. Lumpinee Boxing Stadium is worth a visit to cheer on from the sidelines or show-off your new moves in the ring. To escape the bustling of the south, head to Chiang Mai, a laid back, mountainous area that will have you mastering the spinning back fist among Buddhist monasteries, a modern urban sprawl, and rainforests.
