Xtreme Martial Arts or XMA, is a mixed sport of acrobatics, gymnastics and martial arts. XMA also sets an X-games kind of pace to weapons drills as well. It is a combination of techniques, methods of movements and philosophies from all martial arts styles. It is a mixture of virtually all martial arts styles blended together with high-flying acrobatics and gymnastics.

K2 Martial Arts schools are fully licensed XMA facilities.

The XMA  program is offered to our Leadership members as an additional area of specialization. XMA basics are also built  into the Junior Leadership Program as part of their belt progression.
