Epic Martial Arts


Epic Martial Arts
is the flagship program of the Academy of Martial Philosophy, a not-for-profit association founded in 2002.

At Epic, we are dedicated to dynamically transforming the lives of our members through the training, philosophies, and lifestyle of the martial arts.

We are not your typical martial arts school. 

Our conception of martial arts extends beyond the mat and into our lives.  Yes, we train to make it real, but our self-defense training also includes powerful lessons in anger management, health literacy and advocacy, community activism, environmental self-defense, acts of kindness, mindful living, and much more - all transformative practices that reach "out of the dojo and into the world".

Our instructor, Greg Garcia, is a proud participant in The Ultimate Black Belt Test, the most sophisticated, innovative, and influential master teacher training program in the world. 

Epic Martial Arts is graciously hosted by Leadership Public School of San Jose, a tuition-free, college-prep charter school.  We have small group classes for the LPS San Jose community and educational workshops for members of our extended martial arts family.

Epic Martial Arts does not charge tuition; our program costs are handled through friendly grants, generous donations, student fundraising, and amazing partnerships with local businesses. 

Thank you for your support!
