Tae-kwon-do:

ˌtīˌkwänˈdō/

Taekwondo is a Korean martial art that unites powerful kicks, precise hand techniques, and disciplined focus. Meaning “the way of the foot and the hand,” it builds strength, confidence, and respect—shaping both body and mind for balance in training and in life.

Our Taekwondo

History

Taekwondo at Pinnacle Martial Arts traces its roots to Grandmaster Na, whose authentic Korean teachings established the foundation of discipline, respect, and technical excellence that still guides us today. Master Erick Larson and our dedicated team of instructors continue that legacy, blending traditional values with modern training to inspire strength and character in every student. Our lineage is the heartbeat of our art—it ensures that what we teach isn’t just effective, but genuine. It connects each student in Puyallup to a proud tradition of mastery, integrity, and the continual pursuit of personal growth.

Jiu-jit-su

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu helps students develop confidence, problem-solving skills, and resilience through the art of leverage and technique rather than strength. On the mats, they learn patience, focus, and respect as they navigate challenges calmly and think under pressure. Each roll teaches them that success comes from strategy and persistence. These are powerful lessons that build strong, humble, and adaptable minds for life beyond the academy.

Our BJJ

History

Marcelo Alonso Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (MABJJ) at Pinnacle Martial Arts and we are built on a powerful lineage of technical mastery and mentorship. Master Erick Larson and Professor Jeremy Wallace lead our program under the guidance of Coral Belt Master Marcelo Alonso of the Carlson Gracie Team—one of the most respected names in BJJ history.

This lineage ensures that every technique we teach carries the precision, philosophy, and authenticity of true Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. At Pinnacle, students in Puyallup don’t just learn to grapple—they inherit a legacy of resilience, respect, and continuous evolution that defines the art at its highest level.
