Welcome to Excel Martial Arts CIC – Helping Students Excel in Life

Juniors/pre-teens are poised on the cusp between childhood and young adult life. They can do a lot on their own, but they need help learning how to manage their emotions and behave in a way that makes them proud and productive members of society. In other words, they just need the right opportunity to learn how to be the best possible versions of themselves

Our Scholarship Programme

We understand that some children may need extra support and encouragement to access the life-changing benefits of our martial arts life-skill classes. We believe that every child deserves the chance to thrive—regardless of their financial circumstances.

Our Excel Scholarship Programme is designed to break down barriers and provide access to those who would truly benefit from training but may not have the opportunity to do so. By covering tuition costs we aim to empower children with essential life skills, helping them develop resilience, self-belief, and a positive mindset in a supportive and inspiring environment.

Through this initiative, we’re committed to creating equal opportunities for young people, ensuring that financial difficulties don’t prevent them from experiencing the physical, mental, and emotional growth that martial arts offers.

Who Can Apply?

Our scholarship is for individuals who:

✔️Would benefit from developing confidence, focus, and discipline

✔️Need extra support in their personal growth and development

✔️ Show a strong commitment to learning and self-improvement
