Give Your Children The Lifelong Gifts of Personal Success, Confidence, Discipline and Self Defence
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

I’m Liam Richards, Founder & Owner here at Excel Martial Arts.
As a martial arts coach with extensive experience training children, there is nothing better than seeing them grow firsthand.
But more important than the martial arts skills they learn… is the personal skills they develop and carry for life.
Because martial arts is so much more than just kicking and punching, and getting the next colorful belt.
It’s about developing confidence, discipline, character, focus and respect.
With every class we teach, your children are growing in mind, body and character.
That’s because martial arts provides instant positive feedback. Through learning to focus on the core moves, they develop discipline and respect. They can instantly see and feel a difference, making them destined to build confidence, self-awareness and self-respect.
And of course it’s a ton of FUN!
That’s why I love teaching martial arts to children in this community, and why I know your children are going to LOVE training.
So please have a look below to find out exactly how your children can benefit from our fun martial arts classes.
Thanks!
HOW CAN WE HELP YOUR CHILD?
They need a fun and productive way to improve their physical and mental health.
They could benefit from learning how to manage their emotions in difficult situations.
They are simply shy and lack the confidence and self-esteem needed to live up to their full potential.
Children Need The Right Guidance as They Mature
You want the best for your child and as they get older, you recognize that it’s most important to give them the tools and guidance they need to figure things out for themselves. With increasing maturity comes increasing responsibility – and your child can manage it all with a little help. But where can they get it?
There really is a safe, natural and extremely effective way to take charge and positively impact every aspect of your child’s life. Our Juniors programme helps children and pre-teens get to know themselves and their capabilities. The lessons they learn at Excel Martial Arts will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
YOUR CHILD WILL GROW WITH
EVERY CLASS!
Martial arts training gives children and pre-teens everything they need to grow into adulthood with grace and clarity. They’ll learn how to move through life with self-respect and persistence. By treating themselves and others with dignity, they’ll discover the benefits of discipline and how it can help them to achieve their goals.
Not only are they getting healthier as they learn martial arts, they’re also learning life skills. When you enroll your child in our Juniors martial arts class, you’re giving them much more than the physical skills we teach. You’re giving them the opportunity to thrive and excel in life.
S.E.N.D. programme
Here, at Excel Martial Arts, we aren’t an academy that has favourite students. Through our S.E.N.D. programme, we proudly mentor students who have different ways of understanding and learning. In our eyes everyone is an individual who deserves the same level of love, care, and support we provide them. Parents just want their kids to be confident, happy and healthy. They rest easy knowing we provide a safe, friendly, and positive environment.
LIFELONG CHARACTER AND SUCCESS TRAITS
Your children’s everyday friends aren’t the main concern anymore when it comes to character development. Now you have to worry about all the negative and harmful influences that the internet can introduce into your children’s lives. Children can sometimes struggle with self-esteem, judging themselves harshly.
The true benefit of our classes are the character and success traits that are developed through martial arts training. Respect is a cornerstone value. Here at Excel Martial Arts, every child is treated with respect by coaches and fellow students alike.
Best of all, children learn that when they respect themselves, other will respect them too – and they’ll be respected wherever they go.
GOOD JUDGMENT IS ALSO A FORM OF SELF-DEFENCE
We never want our children to have to use these skills in modern life, but every good parent still wants their children to be safe. In life, the best outcome is often determined by the decision-making process and learning what good judgment is and how to use it.
That’s why our martial arts training is very serious about teaching your children the skills needed for self-protection in any circumstance, from the neighborhood bully to a stranger on the street (and so much more). Students learn how to make judgments in the moment using the information they have available in conjunction with their training.
Having the skills and technique to defend oneself is only half the battle. Our classes teach your child how to evaluate decisions and the elements of healthy decision-making. Your child will feel confident about their self-discipline and ability to use good judgment to diffuse a situation without violence whenever possible.
BUILD A HEALTHY BODY FOR A HEALTHY LIFE
Face it. Between the foods we eat and the constant sitting and staring into screens and devices, many children aren’t getting enough regular exercise.
We all need our share of physical activity and exercise to lead healthy lives. Our Juniors martial arts classes are full exercise routines disguised as a boatload of fun! Jam packed with activities, games and drills to disguise the repetition of training, your child will be too busy having fun to realize they’re exercising.
Of course it’s important for your children to exercise and wear themselves out – they stay healthy, sleep well, and develop their minds and bodies. But just as important, our classes the physical habits they need to grow into healthy adults.
SETTING (AND ACHIEVING) GOALS WHILE HAVING TONS OF F-U-N !!
We never forget… children are children and they deserve to have some fun! However, they also need to know how to set realistic goals and work toward them.
One of the biggest benefits of martial arts training is that in class, students are pursuing goals constantly. Each skill they master – and each belt they earn- represents a goal they’ve achieved. We can’t guarantee that their normal academy teachers are making learning an enjoyable experience, but we DO guarantee that your child will have a blast in our martial arts classes.
It really is a challenge to design a class that keeps children focused on learning, respect, and discipline while still having fun… but our classes are created just for that. They are so full of ideas, activities, and games that your children will never get bored or stagnate.
It’s also a fantastic and healthy environment for them to make friends with other like-minded students. It really is a place where laughter, cheer and happiness abound.

I often hear about bullying in academys . I wanted my children to become more confident and have the skills to defend their self if they have to. My boys joined Excel Martial Arts at the beginning of 2021. It was recommended to us by one of the academy Mums. They loved it straight away. The coaches are very professional, great with children. After seeing their success, I took the opportunity to join the Ladies kickboxing class , and never looked back since. I tried many exercise classes, running , gym.. but never stuck to anything. This is the first exercise what I thoroughly enjoy. My boys made lots of friends, enjoy going on Excel events like Jump Inc., Halloween and recently signed up for their first Summer camp with Excel. I would highly recommend Excel Martial Arts to everyone.

Nothing but praise for Excel Martials Arts and the team there.. We have been coming here nearly 4 years now and I cant tell you how they have helped my son develop his confidence, strength and fitness. As a parent I got so into it that I joined last year during lockdown while suffering with a back injury and will now be grading for my 4th belt. If you want to get fit, meet some amazing and inspiring people and fancy giving martial arts a try then don't waste any more time looking elsewhere, this is the place to be.
