About Us
The Kombative Academy of Traditional Martial Arts (KATMA Defense) is dedicated to teaching practical self-defense skills rooted in the principles of traditional martial arts.
At KATMA, we believe in self-defense through combative training—developing physical and mental readiness needed to defend against violent attacks while also learning to control, focus, and channel aggression in positive ways. Our program emphasizes the balance of physical strength, mental discipline, and spiritual growth to cultivate the whole person.
We believe all people have the right to defend themselves and their loved ones. Our mission is to empower individuals with the skills, confidence, and mindset to stay safe and live positively.
KATMA offers training programs for children (ages 5–12), teens, and adults of all backgrounds.
Currently, the majority of your programs are mobile within the Savannah area. We also have a kids Taekwondo program at the Island YMCA.
