Build Confidence and Conquer Life's Challenges with Hapkido

Many people struggle with finding an activity that promotes both physical fitness and personal growth. Whether it’s dealing with stress, low self-confidence, or feeling stuck in a repetitive fitness routine, the frustration can be overwhelming. Kids often face bullying or a lack of focus in school, while adults may feel a growing need for self-defense skills or an outlet to relieve the pressures of daily life. These challenges not only affect physical health but can also take a toll on emotional well-being and self-esteem.

The longer these issues persist, the harder they are to overcome. For children, unchecked challenges like low confidence or bullying can lead to long-term struggles with self-worth. For adults, neglecting personal development or fitness goals often leads to frustration and burnout. The lack of a clear, effective solution can leave people feeling helpless and disconnected from their potential. Watching yourself—or your child—face these challenges without a solution in sight can be discouraging and leave you searching for something that truly works

Martial arts offer a proven path to transform these struggles into strengths. At Inner-Power Martial Arts, we go beyond teaching techniques—we help you or your child develop discipline, focus, confidence, and resilience. Our classes provide a structured, supportive environment where students can build physical strength, learn effective self-defense, and develop the mindset to tackle life’s challenges head-on. Whether you’re looking to empower your child, relieve stress, or take control of your fitness and personal growth, Inner-Power Martial Arts is here to guide you every step of the way.

What Our Customers are Saying

Jennifer from Howell, NJ

So happy we chose Inner-Power Martial Arts. My son has been going for about a year, moving up in rank, gaining self-esteem and confidence along the way. Brian and his staff are fun, motivating, and inspirational to my son. I highly recommend this dojo at anyone. Comfortable atmosphere, flexible schedules, and friendly staff makes this a great place to bring your family!

Rich from Howell, NJ

Eve from Freehold, NJ

Master McCann and his team of instructors at Inner-Power run a program that is absolutely the best in Monmouth County. My youngest daughter (4-years-old) is a student in the Little Ninja’s class. She is receiving such an enriched martial arts experience. For the entire class period, there are high energy engaging activities, positive encouragement, teaching of proper form, teaching of proper technique, and an overall focus on following directions, respecting each other.

Frank from Jackson, NJ

My 8 year old daughter had tried soccer, softball, gymnastics and just didn’t have the desire to continue with those sports. My wife and I decided to take her for a trial class at Inner Power Martial Arts. All I can say is Master Brian McCann and ALL the staff and instructors at Inner Power are extremely attentive and genuinely care about helping all their students.

Patience from Howell, NJ

Master Brian and all the instructors at this Academy are amazing. My teen daughter has learned so much. She has such a great feeling of accomplishment and her confidence has increased greatly. The sense of comradery among all students in every level is amazing. The instructors foster a team unity and lead by example. I am glad she will have this self defense foundation before she goes off to college.

Chris from Farmingdale, NJ

I think a lot of people think about getting involved in martial arts, for many reasons, whether just for fun, self-defense, or the passion of competing and growing. But most don’t even get started because they feel very intimidated and self-conscious, afraid they can’t do it, even afraid just to show up and check it out.
If that’s you, you definitely need to go check out Inner Power Martial Arts

What is Hapkido?

Hapkido is a versatile martial art from Korea that’s perfect for all ages, making it an excellent choice for both adults seeking personal growth and parents looking to empower their children.

Adults will gain confidence and learn practical self-defense through powerful striking, throwing, joint locks, and grappling techniques. For long-range scenarios, you’ll master jumping kicks and targeted pressure point techniques to neutralize threats effectively. Plus, our weapons training adds another layer of confidence and preparedness for real-world situations.

For kids, Hapkido instills focus, discipline, and respect while teaching them practical ways to handle challenges, even against larger opponents. With its emphasis on redirecting force and using leverage, your child will gain the skills and confidence to protect themselves while building a strong foundation for personal growth and resilience. Both you and your child will thrive in our supportive and engaging classes!
