Our sessions primarily consist in teaching self defence for men, women and children. The methods we use helps teach an effective form of self defence that doesn’t have the constraints many traditional martial arts have.
The training sessions provide all over body conditioning from fitness building, muscle toning, increased flexibility and balance. Our training sessions differ from week to week helping to keep things interesting, new and exciting. There are many psychological benefits to physical exercise, however we believe that kickboxing offers more than the hit of endorphins going to the gym can provide. Martial arts of all kinds help to increase members self confidence, reduce stress levels and give you a kick of adrenaline through pad work, team work and sparring.
The Elemental Kickboxing Academy provides gradings, tournaments and social events for those who like to get involved.
Dave’s kickboxing class varies every week from circuits to pad work and whilst it challenges your fitness it remains fun. Having tried a few other classes I found Dave’s approach much more relaxed yet it holds the structure needed to allow you to push yourself. I joined 18 months ago to improve my overall fitness whilst learning some self defence techniques – I certainly feel fitter, more toned and have achieved a few belts along the way. A great all round work out and a pretty good stress reliever from work too!

Testimonials
“Since joining the Elemental kickboxing club I have gained a level of fitness that I have not been able to achieve since my school days. The lessons have increased my physical fitness and body conditioning and given me more self-confidence. I have been attending lessons since March 2010 mainly twice a week, at present I am red belt and looking forward to grading for my green belt soon. I joined the club to improve my fitness and learn new skills but I wasn’t anticipating how much I would enjoy it. I have made lots of new friends and the club atmosphere is great and we often socialize outside of the club. We have a great mixture of lessons to work on our techniques, sparring and fitness and two lessons are never the same. The level of teaching is brilliant and you really do get pushed to improve your performance, while also been offered help and feedback on areas you can improve” -Nicky ![]()
“My main reason for initially joining was for general fitness, to get rid of that gut, but you're also learning a skill as well that's useful for protecting yourself if the situation arises... and the belts give you something to work towards & help give you that drive to keep improving. The lessons are always kept interesting by rotating through different styles of training / aspects of martial arts, eg circuit one week, then ab work, cardio, sparring, or team races, with focus on improving techniques / stamina / concentration / confidence. There’s a good friendly vibe amongst members making it easier to enjoy training, everyone encourages everyone to move forward & we manage to have a laugh as well - a winning combo" -Grant ![]()
