Warrior Institute of Chicago

I had the absolute BEST experience at the Warrior Institute! I participated in their women’s self defense training, and it was empowering from start to finish. Mr. Headen was patient, knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable while pushing me to tap into strength I didn’t even know I had. What I loved most is how practical and realistic the training was. This wasn’t just about “moves” it was about confidence, awareness, and knowing I have the power to protect myself if I ever need to. I walked out feeling strong, equipped, and READY. Ladies, if you’ve ever thought about taking a self defense class, this is the one. It’s more than just training, it’s an experience that sticks with you. I am so grateful for this opportunity and can’t recommend Warrior Institute enough!

Warrior Institute of Chicago, is a wonderful program that teaches our children, youth and adults discipline, esteem, and self-awareness through the study of martial arts. Oren's vision has truly had a positive impact on the community. I thank him for sharing his gift of teaching, discipline, and martial arts to others. The Warrior Institute of Chicago is truly a jewel in our community.

One of my favorite places in all of Chicago. This is where you go to learn self defense, discipline, and gain grit/determination. If you or someone you know are in need of any this be sure to check out Warrior Institute of Chicago!

The Warrior Institute is a great place for kids and adults to gain a wealth of knowledge. This institution is great place for learning the necessary skills needed to help survive in today’s society. Master Headen is dedicated in helping his students succeed in martial arts as well as other aspects of their life (e.g. school, sports, etc.). He expects the best from his students and he will push them to be successful. This is a great place for learning discipline, survival techniques, and explaining your thought process beyond the norm. If you are interested in martial arts, go give this place a try. You will not be disappointed.

Mr. Headen has a deep and sincere knowledge and love of the martial arts as exhibited in how he instructs his students at WIC. There is a reason that this is one of the top martial arts institutes in the Chicago area. Your child will learn sooo much more than martial arts at this school that will carry on into adulthood. He not only builds warriors but well rounded, disciplined and respectful young men and women.
