WHY Martial Arts?

Can you physically defend yourself? Are you capable of defending a loved one if they were being physically assaulted? Most people can’t, or falsely believe they can. In most attacks, a person doesn’t have enough time to draw a weapon – if they’re even carrying. Quickly an attack can become a life or death situation if your attacker realizes you are armed and they start trying to access your weapon. Unless you know how to use your hands and body, you can quickly become a statistic. Toe 2 Toe is the premier martial arts school in Conway Arkansas. Our focus is on guiding you through your journey of building skills and confidence that will transform your life.

MORE THAN SELF-DEFENSE

At its core, martial arts is a self-defense art. But more than that it promotes a total transformation of mind and body. Practicing martial arts strengthens your mind and body. Your strength and conditioning improve. Your mind becomes sharp. You gain discipline that influences other areas in your life where you’re lacking. In the process, you discover a level of confidence you never imagined possible, and form friendships that last a lifetime.

This is an amazing program. My 5 year old son takes junior jujitsu and junior kickboxing. Curtiss works very well with him. He is kind and patient with the children as they learn new skills. I've tried other Martial Arts programs for my son. He never wanted to participate. Curtiss worked with him to build confidence. I have seen a huge improvement in my sons confidence and respect. My son looks forward to going to all of his classes. He really looks up to Curtiss. It's a fun and safe place for him to learn new self defense skills. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an incredible Martial Arts program.

Toe2Toe is amazing! They spent a whole week teaching my students at Ellen Smith self defense. They went above and beyond. Even allowed the students to throw them. I would recommend them anytime to any age.

Toe2Toe taught a self defense class to our church youth camp over zoom. It was very informative, interesting and engaging for the kids even through video. The youth came away knowing how to avoid bad situations when possible and how to protect themselves physically if they ever need to. They were able to teach several principles and techniques in our short 30 minute class.
Valerie Keith
The Team did a class for our kids ranged from 8-11 on self defense and they all loved it! They really know how to reach the children at there level and prepare them for stranger danger. I was so impressed with how they have the kids show respect and listen. Great company and would highly recommend to hire them for this class.

I've personally known Curtiss for over 25 years in the Martial arts world. He by far is one of the best instructors I've ever trained with. He is concise, teaches reality based Martial Arts, communicates extremely well and is the total Package. He can Walk The Walk, And Talk The Talk. Pay him a visit, I'm sure he will change your life.

CONFIDENCE

The feeling of self-assurance arising from one’s appreciation of one’s own abilities or skills. In Martial Arts this is knowing what to do, when to do it, and how to utilize self-defense. It also translates into self-esteem at work, in relationships, and in the presence of strangers. It is the core advantage every student gains with hard work and discipline.

SELF-DEFENSE

The act of using any available means to reduce or escape harm. In Martial Arts this includes, but is not limited to, leaving the area, talking your way out of bad situations, using “stun and run” tactics, employing improvised or modern weapons, and lastly engaging in physical confrontation until help arrives, the enemy is incapacitated, or escape is possible. At Toe2Toe in Conway, AR our students have options and make good choices to avoid conflict. They also have the ability to resolve conflict using techniques and skills learned under our guidance.

FRIENDSHIPS

Conway’s Toe2Toe Martial Arts isn’t just a place to work out like the local gym. It is a place to make lifelong friendships with other good natured people like you. There is a true brotherhood here where we can show trust and respect without fear of rejection. We help each other, have fun together, and even watch out for one another.
