A New Chapter of Leadership Begins: Prestige Martial Arts Joins Forces with Mastery Martial Arts

A New Chapter of Leadership Begins: Prestige Martial Arts Joins Forces with Mastery Martial Arts

For over 32 years, our school has been a cornerstone of the Troy community, dedicated to helping children build the character and confidence they need to succeed in life.

We began as Denny Strecker's Karate, grew into the well-loved Prestige Martial Arts, and have proudly guided thousands of young students on their journey.

Today, we are thrilled to announce the next exciting chapter in our story. As of June 2024, we have officially partnered with Mastery Martial Arts, one of the most respected names in children's leadership development in North America. Our school is now Mastery Martial Arts - Troy, the first Mastery location in Michigan and the 11th in a distinguished family of schools.

This is more than just a new name on the door. It is a union of shared values and a strengthened commitment to empowering the children of our community.

Stronger Together: A Partnership Built on a Shared Mission

This evolution is a natural step in a journey that began six years ago. As a long-time coaching client of Mastery's founder, Greg Horton, we have been implementing Mastery's proven systems and philosophies for years. Our core values have always been their core values: Discipline, Belief, Respect, Honesty, Communication, and Self-Esteem.

By officially becoming Mastery Martial Arts - Troy, we are aligning our name with the world-class leadership program we have already perfected for our community. This partnership allows us to enhance our training, share resources, and amplify our impact on the children of Troy, Clawson, Royal Oak, and beyond.

What This Means for Our Students: More Opportunity, Same Heart

For our current members, the transition will be seamless. The daily classes, the positive environment, and the dedicated instructors you trust will remain unchanged. What will change is the number of opportunities available to your children.

As part of the Mastery Martial Arts family, our students will now have exclusive access to:

  • Advanced Leadership Training: A curriculum designed to forge the leaders of tomorrow.
  • Dynamic Demonstration Teams: Opportunities to build teamwork, showcase skills, and inspire others.
  • Clear Career Pathways: A direct path for dedicated students to become instructors, mentors, and even future school owners.

This union strengthens our ability to deliver on a promise I have dedicated my life to. As I wrote in my bestselling book, "How to Double Your Child's Confidence in Just 30 Days," my mission is to give children the tools they need to become the best versions of themselves. This partnership is the next step in fulfilling that mission.

A Vision for the Future: Building a Legacy of Leaders

Our vision is to expand the positive influence of martial arts throughout the Troy area. This partnership provides the brand recognition and support to open more locations, bringing the unique benefits of the Mastery system to even more families.

We don't just teach kicks and punches; we build character. Our program is a holistic approach that nurtures children through key developmental stages—physical, emotional, social, and intellectual. We focus on instilling life skills that last a lifetime, like public speaking, focus, and unshakable confidence.

To our loyal families: Thank you for your trust. We are excited to bring you on this journey, which will provide your children with even more avenues for growth and success.

To new parents in our community: If you are looking for a program that will empower your child with tangible skills and a powerful sense of self-worth, you have come to the right place.

We invite you to see the Mastery difference for yourself.
