Both of my kids really enjoy going to their Friday class, they always come out happy and smiling. Always have a great lesson, and that’s thanks to all of the teachers involved for creating such a great and welcoming community at Pitbull MMA. It’s great for the kids fitness, self esteem and confidence. Highly recommend it.
Emma Lidgett
My son has been going to Pitbull MMA for over 3 years. As a family we have found Pitbull to be accommodating, welcoming, supportive and an excellent extra curricular for our son to develop new skills, discipline and learn self defence techniques.
Kelton James
So friendly and professional. Pitbull are always really keen to help you with your technique and progress. They have a comprehensive progression system that really builds and reinforces your confidence.
As I had never done any martial arts they are really patient with your learning and the atmosphere is so positive and encouraging.

It will teach you how to move correctly and will greatly improve your balance, flexibility, explosive power, co-ordination and fitness.
KARATE
Karate if taught correctly is a great way to condition the mind and body and to develop inner strength and incredible striking power. It is a great way to learn about Ki power and to breathe correctly.The best elements of Karate are taught as part of the Pitbull Syllabus.

The Art of Taekwondo is blended into the Pitbull syllabus to ensure you have the best possible arsenal of lightning fast explosive kicks! You will learn a vast array of impressive punches and kicks and will notice your fitness and flexibility improving with each passing week!
