Martial arts schools in Spokane and Spokane Valley

Kendo, iaido, aikido, judo and Shotokan karate all have a place among the martial arts schools in Spokane and Spokane Valley, next to the Brazilian jiu-jitsu gyms that make up the largest group.

Kendo has more than one club here, and Lilac City Kendo Club also teaches iaido. Judo and karate are both common, the aikido dojos belong to different organizations, and tai chi, Wing Chun and the Filipino stick arts (eskrima, arnis-kali and Balintawak) are taught too. Taekwondo and Muay Thai are also common.

Most schools are in Spokane, with Spokane Valley next and a few in Liberty Lake, Deer Park, Mead and Nine Mile Falls. About half of the schools with a full profile run kids classes, about as many offer a free first class, and a couple of the profiled jiu-jitsu gyms run women's classes. Profiled schools come first, grouped by art; the others are listed by name and link to their own site.

47 schools in Spokane and nearby towns are listed here. 15 have a full profile built from their own website; 8 of those run classes for kids.
