About ACSOMA

Empowering students. Building character. Strengthening our community.

Arlandus Chimney’s Schools of Martial Arts of Nacogdoches, known as ACSOMA, has served the East Texas communities since 2011. Led by Master Arlandus Chimney, a five time martial arts Hall of Fame honoree, our school brings together martial arts training, personal development, and a commitment to serving others.

Our program includes karate, Samurai Jujutsu, self defense, grappling, and weapons training. Through consistent practice and dedicated instruction, we help students develop confidence, discipline, respect, and perseverance while building their skills.

We believe every student deserves the opportunity to discover what they are capable of. We encourage students to set goals, face challenges, support one another, and carry what they learn into their homes, schools, workplaces, and communities.

Guided by faith and a heart for service, our mission extends beyond the training floor. Through student scholarships and martial arts mission work, we help make training accessible and support communities at home and abroad.

Whether you are beginning your martial arts journey or continuing your training, we welcome you to grow with the ACSOMA family.

Discover your strength. Build your confidence. Empower yourself.
