Our Academy actively promotes the achievement of recognised professional qualifications for Martial Artists. It is not enough to just have a high grade to teach a class – one must have training in coaching.... although obviously all of our senior instructors are also high graded Black Belts! Our school runs an instructor training programme developing good quality instructors who can teach at the school and we often have senior instructors that attend our seminars and special courses.
