I’m the owner of Bam Bam Martial Arts.

When I was a child, I began my martial arts journey and the positive impact it had on my life was remarkable. It was always my dream to someday open my own school and pass on the skills, knowledge, and inspiration the martial arts has given to me.

Now, I proudly serve the Houston community and feel an overwhelming sense of pride and humility when I see our students grow into happier, healthier, more confident children, teens, and adults!

Scott “Bam Bam” Sullivan, PhD, is the founder and chief instructor at Bam Bam Martial Arts.

He holds a doctorate in philosophy from the University of St. Thomas in Houston, TX and is the author of An Introduction To Traditional Logic (a nationally recognized textbook on logic used in several universities), St. Thomas Aquinas and the Principle of Sufficient Reason, and is a popular speaker throughout the United States on topics like the importance of training children in traditional logic, why the study of philosophy is everybody’s business and the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas.

Our family wanted a martial arts studio that would allow the whole family to train at the same time. But that was just the beginning. Next we wanted good training and a friendly environment. We signed up two weeks ago and believe we found it all. Amazing kids program that and our daughter is always so excited to train. Plus enough adults in the class for me and my wife to train as well. The instructors are amazing like Coach Kaylyn and Coach Jim plus the senior students are so helpful. We would not have been able to navigate this adventure without Jenny she was the one we interfaced with from the beginning. Thank you Professor Scott for your amazing school. Eric and family

This syllabus is precisely what I desired for my children. A structured and finely tuned program of character development, physical fitness, and self-defense. It is not a simple karate class, but rather a premier leadership experience, focused on goal setting, commitment and resilience.An unexpected benefit, the 'attitude' program provides sound material that I use to guide family meal time conversation. In addition to developing my children's behavior and decision making process, the teaching aids are helping me to improve as a husband, father and employee.I am extremely pleased with Bam Bam Martial arts, and at this point, my only regret is not starting my children in this fundamental life skills curriculum sooner.

I tried few martial art gyms before I signed up with Bam Bam, I like working out and practicing kickboxing here. The family-owned business style makes it really a very unique gym. They attend to all our needs and answer our questions. Coach Manny is very professional but also makes the whole training so enjoyable and fun. He knows exactly how to make you fall in love with the sport. I started as a first timer, and within 3 months I made a real good progress, thanks to his coaching methods and attention to his students. I like his focus on practical moves and insistence in doing the proper technique. I have enjoyed every single class with him.

This journey started in December 2018 and here we continue feeling so blessed and thankful with this amazing academy Bam Bam martial arts. We have seen our kids get more confident and focus with a lot of discipline. The best part of this program is that: they work out physically and psychologically and believe that combination is the best! They have helped us as parents to know how to help our kids and encourage them to read, eat healthy, use the magic words, have a self discipline and self control. Thanks to our Bam Bam family, this is definitely a team effort!
