Professional Adult Martial Arts Classes

Boxing

Punching is the main focus of boxing training. Students learn simple punch combinations, how to move their head to avoid punches, and how to move their feet properly. Training also helps improve balance, timing, confidence, and overall coordination.

BJJ Gi

Wearing the traditional Gi changes how you approach grips and grappling exchanges. As part of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, training focuses on using the jacket to establish control, work through guard positions, improve escapes, and set up submissions. Participants develop positional strategy while learning how leverage influences ground exchanges.

BJJ No-Gi

Removing the Gi creates a different grappling experience, relying on body positioning, underhooks, overhooks, and movement-based control. Sessions develop skills around passing, maintaining dominant positions, escaping, and finishing submissions without clothing grips. We build adaptable No-Gi grappling ability.

MMA – Muay Thai

Training draws on Muay Thai’s distinctive use of punches, kicks, knees, and elbows, with attention to close-range striking and clinch work. Students learn to combine different techniques rather than relying solely on conventional punching and kicking. Our sessions introduce these elements within MMA.

Ladies Kickboxing

A dedicated women’s session provides a focused setting for learning kickboxing fundamentals through combinations of punches and kicks. Training develops striking sequences progressively, allowing participants to practise techniques and apply them effectively. We provide a consistent space for women to train and develop their skills.

MMA – Kickboxing

Kickboxing becomes the primary striking base, with students working on combinations using both hands and legs. Training can include linking punches with kicks, managing striking range, and transitioning between attacks. Our approach places these skills within an MMA framework for broader development.
