We have multiple locations offering Freestyle TaeKwonDo and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes up to 6 days a week. Our own Martial Arts programme called Self Defence Systems will also be restarting in October.
Covering the eastern region of Southampton, our schools are located at Hamble, Bishop’s Waltham, Locks Heath & Sarisbury Green.
(click below for our new class timetable starting in October).
Our Freestyle TaeKwonDo (TKD) syllabus is heavily based of the Chang Hon Style of TaeKwonDo, but we remain independent from TKD specific governing bodies. These classes are available for ages 3 and above and focus on forms (patterns), sparring, basic self defence and board breaking. We also have 2 specific programmes for pre-school ages and for primary school years. For older children, teenagers and adults, our core curriculum allows a robust learning system in both the martial arts of TaeKwonDo and self defence.
Our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) team is affiliated with Paraestra UK. A reasonably new affiliation to the United Kingdom, but also adopts the open minded approach with training. We have Junior, Teen & Adult, Adult Only, All Age Family classes and a Ladies Only class each week.
Our own programme called Self Defence Systems (SDS), was created in 2015. It combines the TKD, BJJ and Cobra Kickboxing trained by Mr Marshall into a single style of training. There is a weekly class at Hamble Sports Complex restarting in October.
