OUR MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL
Tama Martial Arts Center was the first freestanding building constructed in Dayton since 1988 which is just kilometers away from Centerville. Grandmaster Manuel R. Taningco envisioned a building that would house all the martial arts he had brought in under one roof. The property is situated on two acres. The facility has approximately 8,000 sq. feet of martial arts studio. The Tama building was constructed with the blessings and support of faithful and loyal student who supported Grandmaster Taningco during more than 30 years.
It was built specifically for martial art school. Taningco’s persistence and inspiration paid off after so many years dedicated teaching. With the help of martial arts students, his prayers and meditation led to the building of this immense structure.
His humble start was in the basement. Taningco, who was a Grandmaster Gasper’s grandson, got permission to open a club. Taningco was a teacher at the Boy’s Club, Keowee Street, Dayton. Later, he started a club with Wayne High School in Huber Heights and Habitat Community Center in Miamisburg. Taningco found himself traveling so much that he finally settled in Belmont, where the Belmont Building was located in the basement. Taningco transferred the studio from the Belmont Building basement to Woodman Drive. This is where “Play Guitar” is located now. In 1988, God blessed him with the opportunity to purchase the land on which Tama is currently located in order to build his dream studio.
Grandmaster Taningco also established a number of martial arts training programs in Centerville. Beavercreek martial arts studio, Beaverhills, Beavercreek. He managed the Tama building on Woodman Drive, which he sold to his students. He brought Shaolin Kempo, traditional jiujitsu, Filipino Kali/Eskrima, Indonesian Pencak Silat, Muay Thai Kickboxing, Tai Chi, Chin Na, Full Contact, Tien Shan Pai Kung Fu, Aikijutsu, and Kendo. He established a structured program to most of the self-controls and was the pioneer in Children Martial Arts. When he moved to Dayton, 1976 there weren’t any children training class. Taningco started SuperKids Karate training class for older children and the Mighty Mites program, which he created for his first two children, Joanna, and Lee.
