Our History:
Owner Dara Gilliland opened No Limits Martial Arts in Houston during January 2024. She wanted to open a martial arts school ever since she was a child. The moment she first began training Taekwondo, her passion for martial arts was instant. She opened up her own academy, No Limits Martial Arts, to provide a space where students had no limits to their potential. Now that she’s fulfilled her dream, Dara strives to inspire her students to overcome adversities and succeed.
