Key Martial Arts

Key Martial Arts operates at 475 College Blvd #2 in Oceanside, California. Founded by former Marine Matt Polack, who serves as Chief Instructor, the academy delivers structured martial arts education and character development for youth and adult practitioners. Polack holds a black belt in American Kenpo alongside background training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The academy's core curriculum is built around American Kenpo, a stand-up self-defense system combining rapid hand strikes, kicking combinations, circular blocks, and evasion tactics. Adult classes develop situational awareness, physical conditioning, reaction time, and close-quarters defense techniques. Instruction incorporates traditional forms, partner self-defense drills, and controlled combative applications. Youth classes include the Mighty Ninjas program for children ages four to six, alongside the Youth Program for ages seven to eleven, Kids BJJ, and teen classes. Young students cultivate motor coordination, self-discipline, anti-bullying habits, and mutual respect among training partners. Classes are scheduled throughout the week at the College Blvd dojo in Oceanside.
