Guildford Martial Arts Academy

Carefully designed to lay down the foundations upon which students can build their advanced techniques, the Basic Course covers the core skills of the Martial Arts including technique, strength, agility, flexibility and discipline.

Whether you’re new to the Martial Arts, from a non-GBMAA club and wanting to start fresh on our syllabus, or if you trained some years ago and would like a gentle refresher course, this is the program for you.

The program consists of basic, non-contact Martial Arts/Kickboxing, basic Self-Defence, a Physical Conditioning Programme, a Life Skills Curriculum and a Grading system.

The GBMAA’s Leadership course is designed to take students up to Black Belt in any combination of up to four different Martial Arts Disciplines (with additional gradings for individual weapons).

The programme also teaches a number of different Life Skills to help ensure that all of our students (especially the younger ones) have the best possible chance for success and happiness in their lives outside the Academy.

Our Leadership course also includes a higher intensity, sport specific fitness programme that will give you everything you need in order to start making a name for yourself on the Sport Martial Arts circuit.

With advanced Kickboxing, sparring and competitions, pad-work, Kung Fu, Weapons, Forms and Martial Gymnastics, there’s something here for everyone.
