I last came 6 years ago when a young teenager, since I?ve been to multiple gyms and trained for a couple years now, I attended a free trial a few weeks back out of curiosity and interest as is very local.Honestly feel sorry for people who get roped into that contract man is really taking advantage of people who are uninformed about modern martial arts, honestly if you want to learn to fight/self defence, just take yourself to any Mma gym, and chances are they won?t try get you to spend upto a grand in gear and membership fees after a 30min free trial ? is utter madness ? Oh and I imagine the owner will say something about being a school not a gym which of course justifies why they have no grappling level mats needed for any actual wrestling take downs or jui jitsu, or equally, any bags necessary for proper striking training besides shadow work.The one slight redeeming quality is that people here attending classes seem nice and I think the guy running the place is as well, who knows though really, maybe it was hard times or something.Would happily come back if this place changes cause it?s nice and local - Peace out ??
