The UMAD story

Sharing the exciting, fun world of martial arts with the CSRA.

As Certified Chief Instructor of Universal Martial Arts Dojos, Sensei Crosby built UMAD around a state-of-the-art academy, certified instructors and a clear path to elite black belt — developing mastery-level skill, rank and knowledge.

Every class works on discipline, respect, self-control, self-confidence and self-protection — all while having fun. And because family time is hard to come by, UMAD offers convenient class times, multiple schedules and specialty seminars.

What we stand for

The UMAD code

Discipline

Discipline isn't only an outside influence — it comes from within. Funneling out distractions to get the task done is the key to success in martial arts, business, relationships and life.

Integrity

Doing what is right when no one is watching. At UMAD we believe being honest and truthful is always the best path — on the mat and in day-to-day life.

Loyalty & Respect

Respect others and yourself: keep a healthy lifestyle, treat others as you wish to be treated, know your worth and aspire to be better — loyal to your values, ethics and principles.
