Meaning "the gentle way", Judo is a safe, dynamic and highly effective martial art, as well as an Olympic sport since 1964.

Rather than relying on strength alone, Judo teaches practitioners how to use an opponent's balance, movement and momentum to their advantage. Through skill, timing and technique, students learn to throw, control and immobilise an opponent safely and effectively.

Training includes:

• Throws (Nage-waza) 
• Hold-downs (Osaekomi-waza) 
• Arm locks (Kansetsu-waza) 
• Strangulation techniques (Shime-waza) 

Judo develops fitness, coordination, balance, confidence and self-discipline, making it an excellent martial art for both children and adults of all abilities. Whether your goal is competition, self-defence or personal development, Judo provides a challenging and rewarding path for lifelong learning.

Japanese Jujitsu is one of the oldest martial arts and is widely practised for its practical self-defence techniques. With roots stretching back centuries, it was developed as the unarmed combat system of the Samurai, enabling them to defend themselves when weapons were unavailable.

Modern Japanese Jujitsu combines a wide range of techniques, including striking, throws, grappling, joint locks, choke holds and ground control. Training develops effective self-defence skills while also improving fitness, coordination, confidence and self-discipline.

Often described as the foundation of many modern Japanese martial arts, Japanese Jujitsu has influenced disciplines such as Judo and Aikido. Today, it remains a versatile and effective martial art, suitable for students of all ages and abilities who want to learn practical self-defence in a safe, supportive environment.

Our Combat Fitness classes combine the intensity of HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) with martial arts-inspired drills to deliver a fun, challenging and effective full-body workout.

Designed for all fitness levels, each session improves cardiovascular fitness, strength, endurance, agility and coordination through a variety of striking, movement and conditioning exercises. No martial arts experience is required—just a willingness to work hard and have fun.

Whether you're looking to boost your fitness, burn calories or complement your martial arts training, Combat Fitness offers an energetic workout in a supportive and motivating environment.

 We offer a range of bespoke self-defence and personal safety courses tailored to meet your individual or organisational needs. Whether you're looking for a one-hour introductory session or a comprehensive programme delivered over several days, we can design a course to suit your requirements.

Our training is practical, engaging and suitable for businesses, schools, community groups and private organisations, with content adapted to your environment and the needs of your participants.
