I have just joined recently and I would say that the classes are fun, interesting and very practical. Jack who is an experienced instructor makes the classes fun for everyone. Recommended!

I have attended 3 classes here since I began Krav Maga 2 weeks ago. The atmosphere and the group as a whole are very friendly. Do not worry if you are nervous to start self defence classes there is no judgement here at all. Everyone - even the veterans - are supportive of beginners and the classes are thorough yet fun. The instructor Jack is great, knows his stuff and helps everyone be the best they can be. Motivates me to go further and learn new techniques. Prices for membership are very affordable. And I would go as far to say the best club in the area.

I have been attending classes here for about a month now (along with my wife) and can honestly say that they have far surpassed my expectations. Both of us have never done any kind of self defence classes before, but I felt that it would be something that could help us gain confidence in dealing with difficult/confrontational situations - especially for my wife. Every class is based on real-life situations and I was surprised how easy the techniques are to learn and remember. This is largely down to Jack being such a great instructor. Everyone is made to feel welcome and is able participate to the full; whatever their age, gender or size! Jack is very experienced, knowledgeable and approachable - but does work you hard!! Well recommended!!

Had a great trial yesterday with our Krav Maga instructor Jack. I have never done it before and everything was easy to follow and learn. Place is great, has parking and I would definitely recommend it.

I went for a trial class and enjoyed training very much. we practised different sort of useful drills, nice and friendly group of students and excellent coaching from Jack. Will definitely sign up👍👍👍

Great class, great skills, and a great teacher. Jack is a fantastic, motivational sensei and both my son and I enjoy and benefit from this. If you’re in two minds, there are trial classes and it’ll help do convince you. The class itself is mixed ages and abilities so no risk of feeling ostracised or cornered.

Over the last few months we (family of four) have Krav Maga private tuition, at our home. Jack is an excellent teacher and his sessions cater for the different ages and get us all involved. Sessions involve: Defending weapon attacks, talking through defensive moves, being prepared for the worst, punch and kick techniques as well as some general fitness and strength training. We highly recommend this company!

Jack has a simple and fun method of teaching the krav maga style of martial arts. The self defence exercises not only make me feel safe but it also make me feel brave and prepared for any situations of attack or danger.

I recently joined The Self Defence Academy and have been really impressed by the quality of the training, the friendliness of the class, and the teaching style of the instructor. Over the years I have trained at a number of martial arts clubs, and this one has no doubt been the most welcoming! Thank you for everything so far, Jack.

I thoroughly enjoyed my trial Krav Maga class- the class is great exercise, practical, and definitely boosts one’s endorphins- Jack is a very patient and friendly instructor. I have since applied for membership and look forward to future classes! I would recommend this class to anyone who would like to improve their self defence skills, whilst getting good exercise in a fun and friendly environment!

A terrific class that I have been attending for over 3 months now - the instructor Jack is terrific and provides valuable self defence insight whilst making the sessions enjoyable for all! Would highly recommend!

This is a great Krav Maga school run by a very experienced instructor, Jack. He is a great instructor with a friendly temperament and very experienced at training both adults and teenagers. The sessions have the perfect combination of being fun, practical and realistic. Each session is different and caters to all abilities/experience levels and covers various scenarios, yet builds on skills previously learnt. Group feedback is provided after each session, which is great! Totally recommend Jack!

This is a brilliant class and Jack is an amazing teacher. The lessons are varied and he goes out of his way to engage with all students, regardless of their size and ability. Great for fitness and learning defence techniques you can genuinely use. Krav Maga teaches important life skills, I actually wish I started learning a lot sooner.

This is such a fantastic class! Jack is a great instructor who makes the class fun, informative and empowering. I really look forward to Thursday nights and the great things I am going to learn. In the few weeks since I joined, I have learnt so much and feel better equipped already to deal with difficult situations I may encounter. So pleased that I joined and am looking forward to learning more. Thank you Jack 😃

Jack is an absolutely amazing instructor. A true professional, enthusiastic and loving his job. Each training brings me a lot of positive emotions, new skills and knowledge. Friendly and joyful atmosphere allows me to make new friends. You will protect yourself as much as possible and will help in difficult times to save your or someone else's life.

I really enjoy the energising lessons which quickly get down to the point of defending yourself in various scenarios. Jack is a great teacher who gives a lot of personal attention.

Jack the instructor was really helpful sorting out my first taster class, and have a really interesting (and good workout) teach. Have now signed up to go back as a member. Would definitely recommend.

I have trained in many krav maga schools over the past decade or so and have recently been fortunate enough to be able to train with Jack as well. Jack is a professional and experienced instructor and possesses an extensive self defence skill set. If you are looking for a relaxed and supportive atmosphere in which you can learn how to defend yourself against real world situations, look no further!

As someone that can get extremely anxious when trying new things and meeting new people the thought was daunting at first! HOWEVER, on attending my trial class today (adult) I can honestly say it was the best decision. Everyone was extremely friendly and patient. The instructor Jack, is friendly and breaks things down for you, whilst supporting you when going through the techniques correcting where needed. By the end of the session, I felt completely at ease and have decided to get myself a membership! Would recommend to anyone.

I met Mr Jack and his team for the training - it was fantastic training. Warm welcomed by the whole team, everyone is so friendly. Mr jack is super teacher to teach the different techniques. All the kids and adult can enjoy his class. I could not realsied how quickly one hour went 💞 over all i had really great experience and i will highly recommend this training. Keep it up Jack 👏👏

jack is a brillant instructor in 3 months my fitness levels have increased .everyone is friendly . its great to be able to do this with my 12 year old son at the same time.

Jack is an excellent teacher and I would highly recommend his self defence classes.

Jack is a great instructor and great with kids. My son Kia has shown a lot of progress very quickly and he really enjoys these self defence sessions and they have helped with his confidence. He learned very useful skills that they can use it in real life. Thanks.

Really fun class, the trainer is really knowledgeable and the students are a good mix of experience. It was a great workout without being too intense for a beginner.

Went for a trial class, I've never done something like this before. Jack and the team were very welcoming and you definitely learn a lot about how you could best defend yourself in any situation. This is a valuable skill to have, just incase, you never know when you would need it! Highly reccomend even trying this out, and learning more about this.

Jack is an excellent teacher who as well as being an expert in self defence is really passionate about Krav techniques and teaches them in a fun and engaging way. I thoroughly recommend giving it a try. The group is very welcoming and friendly, not at all cliquey and all training is done in a safe way.

Whether you’re someone trying to learn self defence, someone who is trying to get/maintain their fitness or just looking for something different to do. I can’t recommend this class more, Jack is a great instructor and truly put me at ease.
