Seven Spears – Rancho Bernardo offers classes such as Tiny Tigers, Youth Beginners, Youth Intermediate, Youth All Ranks, Red Belt and above, Leadership, Teens/Adults, Teens/Adults Muay Thai, and Teens/Adults Black Belt at various times Monday through Saturday. Seven Spears Martial Arts is led by owner and chief instructor Stephanie Spears, a 4th Degree Tang Soo Do Black Belt and decorated martial arts athlete with extensive experience in Judo and Tang Soo Do, and all instructors are black belts. The school states that it is dedicated to helping students of all ages grow stronger, more confident, and more disciplined through high-quality martial arts training, with a focus on both personal development and physical skill in a supportive environment. Seven Spears’ journey began in 2018 when Sensei Stephanie took the reins of Poway Muay Thai, expanded with a Poway Brazilian Jiu Jitsu school in 2022, and added the Rancho Bernardo and Encinitas locations in 2025. Owner Stephanie Spears has earned awards and won tournaments from 2008 and onward in Tang Soo Do.
Seven Spears offers a woman-led martial arts program founded by Stephanie Spears, with multiple locations in Poway, Rancho Bernardo, and Encinitas and programs for kids, teens, and adults that include Muay Thai, Karate, Judo, and Jiu Jitsu (depending on location). The school offers discounted trial options, including a free week of martial arts classes and a 7 Days for $7 special with a free t-shirt for new students, and provides train-anytime access to testing curriculum through the Seven Spears YouTube channel. The program includes a Leadership Team for students with strong leadership potential and an Instructor Program to develop students into instructors and leaders, and it combines traditional martial arts styles with modern “new-school” elements and games. Seven Spears describes itself as a non-corporate, community-focused environment that hosts social events, holiday parties, Ninja Nights, Bring-a-Friend weeks, and other gatherings, and Leadership Team students serve as ambassadors at local volunteering and demo events, with a stated goal of serving families in Rancho Bernardo, Rancho Peñasquitos, Escondido, 4S Ranch, Black Mountain Ranch, and Carmel Mountain Ranch.
