Can't recommend enough, from day one it's been a very welcoming friendly place to train. I have been training at AVMA for over a year now and have enjoyed every day I have been down, very knowledgeable and experienced coaches that work hard to make sure you understand every lesson. As well as the coaches there is an extremely supportive team environment to help you through your training as well as competing.

Very welcoming, supportive and a fantastic group of people to train with, whatever your level. It’s fun to learn bjj but on a more serious note, it might just help you out of a difficult situation. There are people of all ages and abilities in all the disciplines and it’s a great confidence booster for children. There are some quality guest seminars and the competition team have excellent success. I highly recommend martial arts for most people, but its important to find a good club and as a family, we trust this one.

I've been training at AVMA for a few months now after moving gyms due to work commitments and I love it. Duane is a brilliant coach, extremely knowledgeable and really puts his time and energy into getting the best out his students. Everyone who trains here has been super cool to me from day one, I've made great connections already and it's such a positive environment to train in. Deffo a place to train for people of all levels and abilities.
