A protection device for a holder of a martial arts board/target provides protection from direct impact and/or from the force/shock that is transmitted rearward to the hand and wrists of the holder of the board/target. The device receives the board/target holder's fingers, and a slanted floor inside the device urges the fingers into a generally curled or other inwardly-slanted position, and urges the rest of the hand, the wrist, and forearm into ergonomic and safer positions. The device is preferably made of material(s) in a particular hardness range that protects the user's fingers but that also prevents injury to the striker who is hitting/kicking the board/target. There are preferably no flanges or stops that limit placement of the device to particular places on the board, but rather the holder determines and controls the placement.

A device is provided for martial arts training. The device includes a mount and a board holder configured to hold at least one training board. The board holder is adapted to removably connect to the mount at a plurality of different heights. The mount includes a ladder portion connected to a pair of upstanding legs and the mount is foldable between a stored position and a working position.

An apparatus for holding one or more boards during martial arts training, includes a support frame configured to hold various training station assemblies, each of the station assemblies structured differently to provide different training functionality, the first station including a number of plates that work together to hold the board(s) at a position such that upon striking of the board(s) a portion of the first station collapses to allow for follow through during the striking motion, the second station including a number of plates that work together to the board(s) at a desired and modifiable angle, and the third station being configured to hold the board(s) at a hanging position beyond the profile of the support frame, which may be positioned on a support base resting on a horizontal surface such as a floor or may be directly affixed to a vertical surface such as a wall.

The present invention is a martial arts training apparatus that includes a first mat having an opening, a second mat having an opening and a pair of handles pivotally mounted to opposite sides of the first mat. At the base of the handles are lateral extensions used to secure the first and second mats together in mating relation to secure a target between the first and second mat openings. In an unlocked position, the handles extend laterally from the sides of the first mat. In a locked position, the handles are pivoted to a position substantially perpendicular to a front side of the first mat. The handle extensions engage a back side of the second mat to lock the first and second mats together.

A board holder that is adapted for martial arts training has an elongate rod and at least one clamp disposed on an exterior surface of the elongate rod. The at least one clamp has a first clamping wall and a second clamping wall. The first and second clamping walls are adapted to secure a board. The board holder may also have a mount that is configured to be secured to a wall or a punching bag. Advantageously, a person may grip the board holder during training, as well as secure the board holder to the wall or punching bag.

A martial arts training device includes one or more anatomically correct simulated body parts (ACSBPs), including at least one of: head, neck, one or more legs, one or more arms and torso, at least one of said simulated body parts including at least one resettable, breakable or hyperextensible simulated anatomical element, the element simulating human joints, ligaments, tendons or bones. In embodiments, each of the ACBSPs includes a covering of simulated human skin, and wherein following a break or hyperextension of the resettable element, the element may be reset to its undamaged position or resting status to engage the device repeatedly.
