zero dojo

Hi and thank you for visiting our website. Zero Dojo is a champion mixed martial arts gym located in Rockwall, Texas. Our passion is in teaching children and adults the arts of muay thai, brazilian jiu jitsu and mixed martial arts. Having grown up in a martial arts environment, sparring since the age of 2, we know first-hand the benefits provided by the ancient practices, which include discipline, total health and a sense of kinship to name a few.

Zero Dojo was named with that passion and philosophy in mind. “Zero” represents a circle–never ending, while “dojo” means “the place to practice the way,” so our name means “the place to practice the way of zero–no limitations.” We want the gym to feel like a place of belonging to everyone who trains here. We not only want to teach, but we want our students to provide feedback to us as well. As in a “zero” or “circle,” learning is continuous, and that goes for our students and instructors. 

Owners Mike and Karen Wright have put their hearts and energy into opening a gym that would cater to adults and children looking for the sport they feel is representative of physical, mental and spiritual health and that would instill some of the passion they feel for the now trendy mma. Having fulfilled a lifelong dream of someday owning their own martial arts gym is what sets apart Zero Dojo from the rest. “We are not just jumping onto the MMA bandwagon and trying to make a buck off of it. We love what we do and are honored that our jobs involve doing what we love.

Zero Dojo offers a week of free training and we would love to have you visit. Also, be sure and check out the rest of the website for schedules, class descriptions, pricing and more.
