Buitron Academy

I have been fortunate to have met, and to be a student of not just Professeur Buitron, and his father, but most important to be involved in the martial skilled culture of Danse De Rue Savate but more importantly to respect and appreciate life. . I have traveled from martial art school to martial art school here in South Texas and Laredo for several years and believe me I have tried all of the Martial Arts schools in Laredo.. Only to find out that the schools are operated by 19 and 20 year olds telling me how to throw a punch and eventually overcome an aggressor, while commanding me to call them masters. This I cannot swallow since my job has taken me to ill places dealing with harden criminals who show no mercy and these master faces show that they have never experienced a real fight in the street. I travel from Cotulla, Texas three times a week to come train at Buitron Academy, the reality is not theirs; in fact many have never used their apparent skills yet alone trying to teach them. My teacher, is now Professeur Buitron, I remember on one of my visits to the Academy, he told me that learning Danse De Rue Savate is not just about combative aspects but to learn to become a better person. Danse De Rue Savate when studied correctly teaches one to be humble and assist others as well as to appreciate life. He always says that being a good person is not easy and life as a whole is not easy but we are in control of our destiny. Peace

It is the first school of Savate in the United States and the first school of Capoeira in Texas, but it should not be the motive that you consider for YOUR schooling. Rather consider that the Instructors are the best in the industry. They not only have the ability to educate and empower their students at any age level or martial arts background. At Buitron Academy we believe in the power of rationale: thus is the rationale to teach correctly the traditions as well as the techniques without hybridizing or fumbling within techniques that we have not lived. The systems are taught in a classroom setting that enables you to acknowledge your abilities and understand thus creating room for expansion and self growth. While understanding the purpose of the martial skill with all of its benefits of training gathering a fit and functional body both mentally and physically. .
