Our students develop their striking abilities, agility, and cardiovascular condition via intense training. Furthermore, our comprehensive lessons are ideal for boosting confidence, stress relief and more.
Our Legacy of Excellence
Grandmaster Vince's remarkable career started in 1979, and he earned his 1st Dan Black Belt in 1982. Between 1990 and 1994, he won British, European, and World kickboxing championships. After retiring from competitions, Grandmaster Vince devoted his life to teaching. He worked in private and public schools, providing martial arts tuition customised to meet the intellectual and emotional requirements of a wide range of students.
A Supportive and Friendly Environment
We understand that starting a new martial arts practice can be intimidating. At Black Belt Academy, we recall how frightened we were during our first class. That is why we attempt to make your first session pleasurable, stress-free, and memorable. Our skilled teachers are properly trained and insured and have undergone enhanced DBS checks for your peace of mind. They are dedicated to ongoing training and helping each student do their best.
