About Life Ki-do Martial Arts & Personal Development
Life Ki-do Martial Arts & Personal Development in Westlake Austin offers martial arts classes for preschoolers, kids, teens, and adults. Our unique approach combines practical self-defense with personal development, helping students build confidence, focus, emotional resilience, mindfulness, and strong character. Drawing from Karate, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Systema, and Tai Chi, our supportive, noncompetitive classes teach students to stay calm under pressure, develop healthy relationships, and grow stronger from the inside out. Programs include preschool martial arts, kids' karate, teen and adult martial arts, self-defense, and Tai Chi. Founded by Jonathan Hewitt, Life Ki-do has served Austin families for over 30 years. Beginners are welcome, and free trial classes are available.
