The classes they run
“This is the place to start if you are looking to learn a martial art, prepare for police or military service or just spend time learning a discipline with your kids.”
“I was lucky enough to have a small class so I had a lot of one on one instruction with the instructors and learned a lot.”
“Everyone I've met there has been great and I appreciate Professor Foley's focus on self defense and his heart toward training all of his students to be able to protect themselves.”

What students say
“greatest instructional self defense in the northwest, michael and his students are so respectful my 8 yr old loves this class.”
“A lot of other places we have tried just rush you through testing and all the sudden you're a "black belt" when you barely know the basics.”
“The instructors are very knowledgeable and competent while emphasizing discipline for the mind and the body.”
“Additionally, it is very reasonably priced with no commitment, and there are four days a week to select your allowed two.”

From the reviews
An amazing martial arts school that really teaches you how to effectively defend yourself while also being offensive. Very affordable and excellent class times for flexibility with your schedule.
My sons and I began studying here about 2 months ago. The environment is great, the instruction excellent, and the system is amazing. Truly a mixed martial art; fully functional self-defense techniques are taught from day one. It is also a great way to workout both at the dojo and practicing at home.
The H2HCTC is a fantastic community. It's hard to think of this environment as a business because what we do here isn't about the money or the number of students. Its focused on how we live with and use martial arts, specifically this Hand-to-Hand-Combat-Training-System.
I have been training here for around two years and have loved every second. I love the American military uniforms and structure while still training in traditional Japanese and Chinese martial arts.
Your first Karate class at Hand to Hand Combat Training Center
Nervous about walking into a Karate dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and a good sensei expects beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, punches, and kicks — not hard sparring. Step to the side whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot. What to bring: water, and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi and the belt your dojo awards you. Kumite (sparring) eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
