I'd never done a self defence course before and doing it now at middle age makes me think, why didn't I do one before! So many really useful tips and strategies which could make a real difference.

• 5/5 from Tiaoyan Li, attended Oct 2025: I would highly recommend all females to take this class! I came out of the class with so many different techniques/ skills to escape a dangerous situation. The coach was amazing. She made me everyone feel extremely comfortable, was willing to answer all questions, and was hands on with making sure we were applying the skills correctly!

• 5/5 from Nicole Kroesche, attended Jun 2024: My sister asked me to come along with her after a recent unwelcome experience with a strange man trying to follow her home. It was very welcoming and informative. We also managed a lot of laughs. We were given time (under instruction) to practice techniques and to ask questions as we went along. Great teacher and teaching support were very encouraging and helpful. Let feeling more empowered and tired from the workout. Definitely recommend!
• 5/5 from Julie Bradbury, attended Jun 2024: This class was a women’s self defence class. The facilities were great. Plenty of room and padding. All the instructors were do nice and informative. Learned a lot in just the first class, like primary goal is to get away, not fight! Good communication and plenty of practice. Can’t wait until next month!
• 5/5 from Lenka Rokosova, attended Apr 2024: Absolutely fantastic class The teacher and the boys were very professional, friendly and just great to be learning from. I could bring a friend for free which I did and with that, it was a great value for money! I wish this class was an actual course as there is of course only so much you can learn in 90 min.
• 5/5 from Elissa Bramley, attended Apr 2024: Loved it! I feel like we actually in just one class learned enough to get away, especially if we practice. I was very happy to see my daughter doing well at it. Great staff, will go again!

• 5/5 from Fiona, attended Nov 2023: The class had a great format, clear instructions adn lots of chance to try out practical moves. The staff were excellent and very game to have all these moves tried on them. I would definitely recommend this course.
• 5/5 from Nikki, attended Nov 2023: This was just what we were looking for - a little primer in self-defence. It doesn't have time to go too deeply into anything but it gives you important basics, and builds on each of the moves, so you definitely leave the class feeling more confident if you found yourself in a threatening situation. Highly recommend as an introductory class or refresher. Teachers were wonderful - friendly, practical and approachable.
