Brian Long’s Martial Arts Academy provides opportunities for all ages to receive coaching by a national level experienced coach plus the chance to compete in a range of Martial Arts at all levels.
We teach Judo, Japanese Jujitsu, Sambo wrestling and Backhold wrestling
We have trained Commenwealth and national level competitors in Judo progressing and competing at the highest levels of the sport. We bring on winners regardless of external levels too.
We believe the benefits of Martial Arts gives participants (and especially youngsters) strength , flexibility, and coordination as well as greater qualities of self-esteem , self-discipline, self-confidence and honourable behaviour.
How we teach is the perfect way to prepare your child for adult life. It will introduce them to a good moral code, fitness, strength and confidence and teach them self-defence at the same time. All coaching is by qualified coaches who are trained and have been screened for their suitability for working with young people.
The multiple weekly training sessions, squad sessions, mix and matches, inter club competitions that are in place represent the 1st steps on a pathway for future National, Commonwealth, International and Olympic games participation. At these sessions players will hone their judo, martial arts skills and develop a strong work ethic through a combination of structured technical and sport specific exercises/games.
We are trying to encourage everyone to do a minimum of two classes a week to try and maintain high standards in the club and help each individual player achieve their goals.
In order to increase time spent doing techniques, improving our quality of service and minimise the amount of paperwork / cash our coaches are handling we collect our class fee through Direct Debit. Discounts apply to family packages and the Direct Debit is set up by the parent/guardian.
We are open most of the year – summer and winter. However, we are closed for 2 weeks during the summer holidays and for 2 weeks during the Christmas holidays and also 1 week at Easter. All payments have this taken into consideration especially with regards to the fact 4 months of the year are 5 week months and therefore Direct Debits DO NOT need to be cancelled.
Gradings are 2-3 times per year. The grading includes certificate, badge and belt.
