A martial arts room built for real people
TD Athletics Inc. exists to empower children and adults through martial arts, self-defense, fitness and confidence. That mission shapes how every class is run.
Kids and adults, same standard
Children's and adult programs run under one coaching philosophy: technique first, respect always, nobody left behind.
Beginner-first coaching
Technique is broken down step by step and beginners are never thrown into hard sparring on day one.
Rooted in Brooklyn
Training on Snediker Avenue in East New York, minutes from Brownsville, Cypress Hills, New Lots and Canarsie.
Real martial arts, real conditioning
MMA, grappling and kickboxing plus a dedicated health and wellness track if fitness is your first goal.

Full instructor profiles — names, disciplines, experience and credentials — are being published as the academy confirms them. Nothing here is invented.

FAQ
Questions new students ask
Straight answers before you walk in the door.
Do I need martial arts experience to start?
No. Most people who walk into TD Athletics have never trained before. Classes break technique down step by step, and beginners are never thrown into hard sparring.
What program should a beginner start with?
It depends on your goal. Grappling is excellent for self-defense and problem-solving, kickboxing is outstanding for conditioning and striking skill, MMA blends both, and the health and wellness program is there if fitness is your first priority. If you're unsure, ask Coach or call the academy.
What should I wear to my first class?
Comfortable athletic clothing without zippers or pockets, plus water and a towel. For grappling, bring a change of clothes.
Do you offer classes for children?
Yes. TD Athletics runs children's MMA, children's grappling and children's kickboxing programs. Call 347-409-7031 to confirm the right age group and class time for your child.
Do you train law enforcement professionals?
Yes. TD Athletics offers law enforcement programs covering control tactics, defensive skills and job-specific conditioning. Contact the academy to arrange individual or group training.
What are your hours?
Monday through Friday 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM, Saturday 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, and closed Sunday. The academy is also closed for major holidays.
How often should beginners train?
Two to three classes per week is a sustainable starting point. Consistency matters far more than intensity in the first few months.
