About Our School

Ryer Martial Arts Academy began as a student organization at the University of Pittsburgh called the United Parker's Kenpo Club.  Established in September 2000, the United Parker's Kenpo Club was led by Mr. Joshua Ryer and Mr. Salvador “Alex” Dorsey.  As the club became more successful, Mr. Joshua Ryer re-organized the club into a full-time martial arts school in March of 2004.  Then in December 2007; the school was renamed to Ryer Martial Arts Academy.

Through the full-time academy, we have expanded the martial arts programs to teach people of all ages.  We developed age-specific children's programs, along with a highly acclaimed adult programs.  In addition to the instruction in  American Kenpo Karate; we also offer instruction in the grappling-based martial art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and the weapon-based martial arts of the Counterpoint Tactical System and Doce Pares Eskrima and Eskrido.

To balance the number of martial arts programs; we also offer an extensive Fitness Program that includes classes in Cardio Kickboxing, Pilates, and Yoga.

As in the past, Ryer Martial Arts Academy continues to deliver the highest level of instruction and we strive for superior programs.

With a clear vision and genuine passion, we will be successful and we look forward to welcoming you to be a part of it all!
