Grogan’s Martial Arts to Goshen Martial Arts

Exterior of Goshen Academy of Martial Arts at 310 Hillsboro Avenue, featuring martial arts posters and signage.

Goshen Martial Arts started as Grogan’s Martial arts in 2005. Rich Grogan started teaching kids martial arts classes in the Nelson Elementary School gymnasium in Edwardsville, IL. Eventually, Rich Grogan’s first student, Master Nathan, took the torch and launched Goshen Martial Arts.

Goshen Martial Arts has been proudly passing martial arts skills and personal development skills to its students for over 20 years.

The Team Behind the Mission

Our team of top-tier martial arts instructors are home-grown. Each instructor has trained at the studio for over 6 years, have earned their black belt in Tang Soo Do from Goshen Martial Arts, and have completed training in our TNT program to bring our students and their families the best martial arts experience.

We care about creating a positive, uplifting culture in our studio—our programs are taught using positive reinforcement and encouragement!

Our amazing team of life-changers is here to make sure each student grows as a martial artist and a person, one high five, one gentle push, and one encouraging word at a time.
