RISE TO A NEW LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE

Welcome to LEVEL 3 Martial Arts Performance. We offer beginner and family friendly martial arts and self defense classes for men, women, teens, and children in the Moopark, Simi Valley, Camarillo, and Santa Rosa Valley areas. Our classes are unique because we combine the time-proven effectiveness of today’s most influential and popular martial arts systems with the modern mindset needed to perform your best. We define "champion" as an attitude, a behavior, a thought process - not just a person with a title or trophy. Our goal is to develop "every-day champions" who seek improvement in areas like health, focus, and confidence and who just want a positive and welcoming place to tap into their full capabilities. From your first class you'll notice our program is fun and challenging and that our clean and spacious studio is populated with friendly like-minded people ready to welcome you. But don’t take our word for it, come experience a class for yourself!

ABOUT US

LEVEL 3 Martial Arts Performance Founder & Owner Eric Perlman began his martial arts experience at age 9 in Anaheim, California. While completing a Communications degree at California State University, Fullerton he began instructing martial arts at his original martial arts studio in 1996. In May of 1997 he earned his 1st-Degree Black Belt under a group of Master Martial Artists in the direct lineage of Kempo’s primary founders. While climbing through the ranks he competed, placed, and judged competitors in 50+ martial arts tournaments, raised funds for national charities through martial art based community events, and enrolled and taught thousands of students who’ve enjoyed the life-long benefits of martial arts. For two decades he helped two national martial arts organizations grow and expand multiple locations throughout North America. Today, 64,000+ private lessons and 18,000+ group lessons later, he’s doing what he loves the most - establishing and cultivating long-term student-instructor connections in his Moorpark studio helping his community experience the life-changing benefits of martial arts!

“I’ve always had the mindset that no matter what task I take on or what role I play that I was doing it to the best of my ability - I was raised to always take a sense of ownership over what I do. We’re all trading our time for something so it better be something that brings value to our life or the lives of others and that we care enough about to do at our highest level. That’s the spirit of LEVEL 3, that’s what we hope you’ll feel in your experience with us.”

—Eric Perlman

PRIVATE & GROUP TRAINING

Our personalized approach is a perfect fit. We have one goal in mind - YOURS. Upon your first visit we take the time to learn what's important to you so you know you’re in the right place. Reaching your goals is simple: Enroll, attend consistently, don't quit.

Group instruction consists of students close to the same age and ability. With a goal of successful practice and application in mind each class centers around effective martial arts training principles, a variety of skill-building drills, and conditioning routines for maximum health benefits. All of our class topics rotate to ensure you never miss an important piece of your studies no matter your schedule. We foster a welcoming team and family style culture based on encouragement and respect. A studio’s attitude starts with the instructors’. We like to be social, healthy, have fun, and feel confident while training with energy!

Private & Semi-Private instruction is one key element of our program that separates us from the “other guys”. Private martial arts lessons allow you to progress at a much faster rate, and / or receive additional help in challenging areas. Private instruction is scheduled at your convenience and is readily available in every membership program option at a discount. If you prefer private training solely you can still learn the same curriculum as in our group program but at your pace and on your schedule or we can focus on your specific interests.

WHAT IS LEVEL 3?

The LEVEL 3 Martial Arts Performance name was inspired by the three levels everyone experiences in any endeavor: 1) beginner, 2) intermediate, 3) advanced. In our program each level of training focuses on a unique curriculum to ensure your skill set is well-rounded. Staging your journey into three levels makes it easy to reflect on what you’ve accomplished and to see what’s next. Being a Black Belt is different than having a Black Belt. It means you have a mindset that accepts nothing less than what you’re capable of which results in a feeling of fulfillment and happiness. You don’t have to be THE best, just be YOUR best! That is LEVEL 3.
