Ultimate Martial Arts Studio

Serving the Savannah islands since 1999

At Ultimate Martial Arts Studio our goal is to provide our members with a home away from home. Our training facility is a place where for a few hours a week you can forget about all the challenges of your daily life and focus just on yourself. A mini-vacation, if you will.

Through the years, the Martial Arts Industry has grown rapidly.  It has grown out of the image of a gym to that of a school, with a curriculum which outlines goals and objectives.  A strong classroom structure is the key to the Black Belt Success System — it helps the student stay focused on his or her own goals.

Reaching Goals and Objectives

To help students achieve their goals, they will be tested regularly and their progress will be assessed by an instructor.

Achieving a Black Belt is a multi-year goal for most people.  Along the way, there are short-term objectives to advance in skill level and build confidence

About Master Jaime

Master Jaime Martorell

Master Jaime MartorellMy name is Master Jaime R Martorell, founder and chief Instructor of UMAS. My journey began over two decades ago when I moved from Puerto Rico to the United States. I landed in Daytona Beach where I met my instructors Grand Master Peter Lee & Master Christene Tuomane. Their expertise in Tae kwon do, Hap-kido, Judo and Brazilian Jui Jitsu helped mold who I am today.

In my early years I dedicated every waking moment to training and learning how to teach. Eventually I moved to Fort Lauderdale and began training in Kempo with Kioshi Steve LaVallee and Master KC LaVallee, this is where I began training and teaching Cardio Kickboxing too. I also began working as an instructor at Park’s Tae Kwon Do Federation with Grand Master John S. Park, Master Shick Park and Master Chong Park.

After a few years of being in South Florida, I visited Savannah, and decided this was the place for me. I opened my first studio, North Beach Martial Arts in 1998 on Tybee Island. One year later, in the summer of 1999, I moved to Wilmington Island and renamed the school, Ultimate Martial Arts Studio. UMAS was voted 2006 and 2007 Asian World Of Martial Arts Best School In Savannah. From 2007 till present we have been affiliated with NAPMA (National Association Of Professional Martial Artists).

In 2003 I married my beautiful wife Allison, and we have had 2 beautiful children. Here at Ultimate Martial Arts Studio, you are always welcome! I teach All Classes at the studio. Se habla espanol! Come try 2 classes for free, lets start today on your journey to black belt!!!
