How Zero Dojo got started
Where did Zero Dojo Start?
Zero Dojo was founded in 2008 in Rockwall Texas, by Head Coach Michael Wright, a life long martial artist with decades of experience in Muay Thai, Kickboxing, and BJJ (Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu). Coach Mike had already been coaching at several gyms throughout the Dallas/Forth Worth area for years when he opened Zero Dojo with his wife and two kids.
What does Zero Dojo Teach?
Zero Dojo’s focus has been teaching Muay Thai, Kickboxing, and a unique style of MMA Coach Mike has developed to kids starting at 5 years old and adults of all ages. The Zero MMA curriculum is based on traditional martial arts and incorporates a unique blend of striking and grappling styles.
Their mission is rooted in the philosophy that martial arts is more than training, it’s a family tradition and a community experience. 17 years later, they continue to be motivated by that philosophy in their new home in West Des Moines.
“We believe martial arts should build confidence, resilience, and connection. Whether you’re a child learning to navigate challenges like bullying, an adult looking for fitness and stress relief, or an athlete with the desire to test themselves in the ring, we provide a supportive environment where everyone belongs.” – Coach Mike
