My children have been training with combat academy for a few years now. I love going down to watch them. It's no mean feat to keep so many young kids concentrating and listening, but Master Ian and his team makes it look easy. Master Ian's energy, charisma and knowledge keep the children engaged and eager to improve. My kids have grown in confidence and patience during their practice. I would highly recommend combat academy UK to anyone.

I have now been part of Combat Academy UK for almost 5 years and I have loved every minute it. We learn a range of skills within our jujitsu , kickboxing , Silat , Kali and other martial arts. This is all down , to our amazing instructor team and the main man himself Master Ian. Combat Academy UK isn’t just a martial arts club; it’s also one big family where everyone is there for each other. We have also got a kickboxing competition team which I am so proud to be part of. A few of our members are British title holders. It’s a great experience to get in the ring and have the full support of the club behind u no matter the outcome. If you want to learn martial arts in a fun friendly community then Combat Academy is the place to come.
