Advanced Martial Arts Programme

The Advanced Martial Arts Programme reinforces all the modules in the foundation Martial Arts programme as well as teaching new modules.

These new modules must be repeated at least twice within the programme in order to progress to the Senior Martial Arts Programme. This ensures that students have been given sufficient time to be able to practice and execute the techniques to the level required before progressing to the Senior Martial Arts Preston Programme.

The programme has been deliberately designed rotating the modules allowing students to practice and gain knowledge through reflective learning with other cohorts as they progress through the Programme. The modules in this programme contain some advanced and highly effective elbow techniques.

This programme mainly focuses on building technical competence throughout all the techniques shown. This is achieved through the use of efficient and effective combinations that demonstrate how to transition from one technique to the next. Through this series of combinations, the students learn how to not only execute the predetermined combinations but allow them to create their own.

On completion of this programme students will be able to actively move (evading and attacking) transitioning effectively between techniques.​

Senior Martial Arts Programme

The Senior Martial Arts programme is where all aspects of previous learning are consolidated.

This programme will demonstrate not only how to combine our techniques (Advanced Martial Arts Programme) but also how the students are able to counter and even to some degree anticipate them. The students are taught a series of fast and effective techniques that are designed to enable them to defend and counter against a number of attacks. As well as this the students are also taught a highly effective series of self-defence techniques.

These techniques are highly advanced and extremely effective when executed correctly. This Martial Arts programme contains a series of counter-move combinations that can be executed in their own right but also to teach students how to string combinations together whilst moving in order to both attack and counter-attack an opponent.

Life Skills Taught

Training in martial arts allows you develop essential life skills.

Through martial arts, you will have the opportunity to develop confidence and build self-esteem in a positive and friendly atmosphere. Martial arts can help train your mind and body, helping you to remain focused, maintain attention and help you stay alert.

Training alongside other students will help develop your social skills and as you progress through the belts, develop leadership skills as you learn to train other students yourself. As you grow in confidence (at your own pace) you will soon find yourself participating in general discussions, sharing ideas and for some you may even wish to take a class of your own.
