Welcome to Ziwak’s Martial Arts. We bring our students decades of combined martial arts experience.
We have competed both nationally and internationally. A number of champions have emerged from our school. Our
philosophy and methods find meaning in the traditional values, such as respect and discipline. We blend them,
however, with a practical and innovative approach to our training methods.
Dedication to the values of honesty, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit has brought
meaning to our lives and the lives of thousands of our students. The practice of martial arts is a way of life
we have been called to share.

Perseverance and Progress
October 2020 Black Belt Testing
Undaunted by cold weather and the challenges of the present time, our students have ceaselessly progressed with
their training. As a result, two students have tested for and earned their black belt, as well as others advancing
even further through their ranks beyond black belt. This comes as the result of continuous training and the endurance
of a multiple hour test in the cold October morning weather.
