Owner & Chief Instructor
Damon Easley is a 4th Degree Black Belt and the founder of North Georgia Martial Arts, which he established in Jasper in 2010. A District Champion and multiple-time State Champion with a globally ranked sparring record, Damon has dedicated 15+ years to martial arts with a mission to change lives one person at a time. Under his leadership, NGMA has grown into a championship-caliber academy where students of all ages find confidence, discipline, and a community that pushes them to be their best.
We don't just teach Taekwondo & Martial Arts — we build better people.
Students earn every belt by demonstrating real technique — we don't hand out ranks. With a 5.0-star Google rating and 16 years in Jasper, our standards speak for themselves.
From young kids to adults, complete beginners to returning martial artists — everyone feels at home at North Georgia Martial Arts. This is a family, not just a gym.
Parents and students report improvements in focus, confidence, and discipline within the first 30–60 days. Our structured curriculum ensures every student progresses at every level.
Something for everyone — from toddlers to adults, beginners to competitors.
From a child's very first class to black belt and beyond — NGMA's kids program takes students ages 4 through 13 from beginner to competitor. Younger students get the patient instruction and smaller class sizes they need to build confidence and coordination. Older kids progress through a structured belt system alongside peers at their level, with competition opportunities available for those ready to take their training further.
A serious discipline and a serious workout — led by Damon Easley, a 4th Degree Black Belt and nationally ranked competitor. Build real fitness, develop practical self-defense skills, and train in a community of adults who push each other to improve. No prior experience needed.
Gi and No-Gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under experienced competition coaches. Classes cover the fundamentals of BJJ through specific drilling and live training — open to all skill levels, from complete beginners to seasoned grapplers. A mat culture that's welcoming, competitive, and built to help you actually improve.
High-energy kickboxing that builds striking power, cardio, and real self-defense — so much fun it's addicting. Led by Thomas Prisco and Zach Bjork, coaches with real competitive records. No experience needed. Whether you're training for fitness or developing your striking game, NGMA kickboxing delivers.
