Welcome to our dojo! 🥋

For decades, Pacific Rim Martial Arts Academy has been a home for traditional martial arts in the Portland area — a place where students of all ages come together to learn, grow, challenge themselves, and belong.

From the moment you arrive, to the moment you step onto the mat, everything here has a purpose.

It’s where confidence is built.
Where discipline becomes a habit.
Where traditions are passed from one generation to the next.
And where students discover just how much they are capable of.

We train in Judo • Aikido • Hapkido • Iaido 🥋

Come train with us today!

Where tradition lives.
Where people grow.
Where the journey continues.

We look forward to seeing you on the mat!

There’s more to traditional martial arts than kicks and punches; but also it’s about culture, connection, and lifelong learning. 🇯🇵🥋

At the end of class, our students had the opportunity to practice a little Japanese language together as part of our cultural exchange tradition. Small moments like these help deepen respect for the art, its history, and each other.

Osu! 👊

“A house built on rock stands firm.”

The same is true in Hapkido. 🥋🤜🏻

The stances. The falls. The footwork. The repetition.

Day after day, we return to the fundamentals; not because they are simple, but because they are essential!

Strong basics create strong martial artists.

And a solid foundation creates mastery over time through confidence, discipline, perseverance and resilience.

One of the most important foundational skills we teach in martial arts is how to FALL SAFELY!

Our students practice Ukemi; rolling and breakfalls (slapping the mat properly during a fall) to protect the head, neck, and body and reduce injury.

These skills don’t just help on the mat but help in everyday life too.

Learning how to fall teaches:
✅ Body awareness
✅ Confidence
✅ Control under pressure
✅ Injury prevention

At our dojo, safety is part of the foundation.
Every roll, fall, and recovery helps students become more resilient both on and off the mat.

See you on the mat!

Move with purpose and train with intention. 🥋

At Pacific Rim Martial Srts Academy, our practice focuses on building a lithe, responsive body—one that moves with agility, balance, and control.

Through dynamic training like Kakari Geiko, you’ll develop endurance, sharpen your reactions, and push past your limits in a supportive environment.

In Tomiki Aikido, we blend structure with flow—learning how to stay centered, adapt quickly, and move efficiently under pressure. But it’s not just about technique; but also about cultivating a healthier, more resilient version of yourself.

Whether you’re looking to improve your fitness, refine your movement, or challenge your mind and body, this is your path forward.

Come see us today! We look forward to seeing you on the mat!

Quick feet. Sharp reactions. Total control. 🥋

In Hapkido, it’s not just about power—it’s about timing, awareness, and getting off the line. In this drill, we’re using pool noodles as as a safe and effective way to train fast movement, evasiveness, and precision without the risk.

Simple tools. Real skills.

Train smart. Move better. Stay ready.

Flying high in Hapkido! 💥🦅

Our junior students are taking things to the next level!

In today’s class, you’ll see them practicing jumping sidekicks, and jumping roundhouse kicks while building real control, balance, and timing.

What makes it even better? They’re having a blast while doing it! 😄 Every jump, every kick, and every landing shows progress, not just in technique, but in confidence and athletic ability.

Martial arts is about discipline and skill, but it’s also about enjoying the journey, and these kids are doing both!

👏 Show some love and encouragement for our juniors!

Big first steps for our junior students in Hapkido self-defense! 💥👊

Every expert starts as a beginner, and we’re proud of the focus, courage, and effort these students showed on the mat!

This is just the beginning of their journey—building discipline, respect, and real-world confidence one class at a time.

👏 Drop some encouragement for our juniors in the comments!
