At Austin Warrior Arts, led by chief instructor Da'Mon Stith, students dive into the realm of historical African martial arts. From machete arts to stick fencing, capoeira to kickboxing, the instruction blends artistry, footwork, and traditional weaponry skills. If you’re lucky enough to find yourself in the right space and time, you might witness a pop-up public performance, but you can immerse yourself in multi-disciplinary workshops and seminars year-round. Add in mindfulness training, de-escalation tactics, and SEL lessons for a holistic training experience. Hoping to unleash your inner warrior? Head to the African American Cultural & Heritage Facility.
