Welcome to RDA Academy: World-Class Martial Arts in Northwest Austin
Finding a welcoming place to train martial arts can feel daunting. If you live around North Austin or commute down West Parmer Lane, you now have a direct home for authentic martial arts training. RDA Academy brings world-class instruction directly to our local community in Austin, Texas.
Here in Central Texas, we value genuine community, hard work, and mutual respect. Whether you want to boost your physical fitness, learn practical self-defense, or introduce your children to positive habits, our doors are open for y'all.
A Training Home Built by a Champion for Our Austin Neighbors
RDA Academy is a family-owned academy founded by UFC world champion Rafael Dos Anjos. Rafael brings more than two decades of professional experience to the mats every single week. Instead of running a distant corporate franchise, our head instructor actively coaches and shares the exact principles that guided his career.
In addition, our academy is built around a supportive culture where egos stay outside the front door. We believe martial arts should empower everyone, regardless of current fitness or past background. Because of this mindset, every student receives personal attention from day one.
Guidance from Highly Trained Instructors
Quality instruction makes all the difference when you step onto the mats. At our Northwest Austin facility, every class is led by highly trained coaching staff dedicated to your personal growth.
Furthermore, our well-trained instructors break down movements step by step so every detail makes sense. You get clear explanations, plenty of partner drilling, and continuous guidance. This structured environment keeps training safe, productive, and thoroughly enjoyable.
Programs Tailored for the Whole Family
Martial arts provides remarkable lifelong tools for children and adults alike. For this reason, our curriculum offers targeted programs designed for different age groups and personal goals.
