About Us

LEGACY was created to help kids become confident, disciplined, and self-motivated achievers — not someday, but starting now. Through our simple daily app, students build powerful life skills and positive habits, complete short missions that develop character, and earn meaningful rewards along the way. What began in a martial arts school is now a growing movement of families and coaches using LEGACY to teach the most important skills in life: consistency, responsibility, and follow-through. It’s not just about checking boxes — it’s about building momentum that lasts a lifetime.
