About Sidekicks Martial Arts
Saint Clair Shores, MI
Since 1994, Sidekicks Martial Arts has provided a family atmosphere and a place where students can achieve their goals. The focus is on respect, perserverance, and self-improvement. Our flexible class schedule allows adults and children to fit training into their busy lives.
Sidekicks Martial Arts was founded in 1994 by Grand Master Brian Pontillo, 8th Degree Black Belt, to teach the system of Moo Sool Do ("the way of the martial arts"). This style incorporates Tae Kwon Do, Tang Soo Do (Korean Karate) and Hap Ki Do. Over the last 25 years, Sidekicks has evolved to teach kickboxing and Krav Maga to meet the fitness and self-defense needs of the community.
