Welcome to Heritage Martial Arts Center . 

      Heritage Martial Arts is comprised of a five member family of Mixed Martial Artists who began training in Tae Kwon Do in 1995.  The family’s children were raised in a Dojo which meant they had Grand Parents and Grand Masters as well, to show them the way.

     Mixed Martial Artists best describes this group because they teach several different disciplines learned from Michigan’s best Masters and Grand Masters. Herb Proctor, founder and head trainer said: “Our foundation is truly Tae Kwon Do, however, we feel there is not one specific art that works completely for every one. We pull from our diverse background to be the best instructors we can be. We are presently training with our Grand Master B. C. YU in Ann Arbor at Tae Kwon Do Institutes of America.  He is the real deal - an 9th Degree Korean Grand Master with over 48 years of experience. It is truly a blessing to train with him!”

     Heritage Martial Arts is made up of four Black Belt instructors ranging in age from 13 to 72 years old. Belt range is from 2 Degree Black Belt to 9rd Degree Black Belt. The school has a unique alliance with Mills Gymnastic of Southgate MI. which enables students to train there. As a result, students learn the principals of proper ground techniques and basic Gymnastics, which are the fundamentals of Extreme Martial Arts.

     Herb and his wife Master Amy really enjoy Cardio Kickboxing. Having taught Kickboxing for the last 4 years, they credit their diverse background in Martial Arts for adding a “nice twist” to their classes, which also teaches the basic moves of self - defense.

    Black Belt  Instructors are present at all kickboxing classes to help participants use proper form techniques. Having instructors at kickboxing will help prevent injury and ensures a maximum work out for students.
