Welcome to Ryer Martial Arts Academy

The Highest Quality Martial Arts & Cardio Kickboxing

Ryer Martial Arts Academy provides the best martial arts, self defense, and fitness programs to Pittsburgh's East End communities.

We offer afterschool Youth Martial Arts programs for children three years of age and above. These Youth Martial Arts Programs teach a strong foundation in essential character qualities like courtesy, respect, and discipline. The programs are designed to improve children's motor skills and enhance their ability to focus and follow directions all the while they are learning how to defend themselves.

Along with our youth programs, we offer the best selection of Adult Martial Arts programs.  Students of our Adult Martial Arts Program can choose from instruction in several martial arts disciplines, including; the traditional, empty-hand martial art of Ed Parker's American Kenpo Karate, the weapon-based, mixed martial art of Zach Whitson's Counterpoint Tactical System and the Filipino-based martial art of Cacoy Canete's Doce Pares Eskrima.  Each of these curriculums teaches practitioners how to cope with situations logically and systemically; making them highly practical for any man or woman to learn and apply.

In addition to our martial arts programs, we offer several fitness programs, including; Personal Training and our renowned, fitness boot camp style Cardio Kickboxing.  The Real Cardio Kickboxing Program combines fitness kickboxing, progressive strength and resistance training, flexibility, and more that will get you in the best shape of your life!
