SD School Of Martial Arts

This is a real family club with instructors of the highest calibre and care. I’m proud to train here and my children love it.

My kids have been taking lessons there for years and still love it. Great environment and teachers. Worth every penny. A++

One of the best boxing training I have done. Really spiked my interest in boxing. Dont go anymore but I remember the coaches would always try and push me and they were very knowledgable and experienced. Thanks

We stopped bringing my son to the boxing class as it’s the instructor is very rude, arrogant, unprofessional and disrespectful. SD Martial Arts has really gone down in my opinion (we’ve been coming to the place since 2014). I thought they were meant to boost confidence and teach their pupils respect. But going by the instructors there and witnessing the owner being rude to a parent we will never return or recommend this place. If you are however looking for a good boxing club, the Corporal Bud’s Gymnasium hold them and they are amazing.

Awesome in every way. Great atmosphere, nice people and quality lessons. I've taken part in quite a few and the instructor are top!!

The owner/main teacherMade a new kid of 10 feel very embarrassed and small in-front of the other students Because he didn’t have gloves with him on his second time there. He wasn’t aware he needed them on this occasion as he was still trying the club out. But the instructor shouted at him saying “ you know this is a fighting class don’t you. Go and tell your parents you need the kit” and sent him out of the gym. After that point he didn’t want to go back in. There’s a way of treating kids especially new comers . He was already fragile after having a tough year. New to this area trying to make friends.I waited at the door to speak to the instructor but he just ignored me . No wonder there was only half of a dozen students in the class.He spent 5 years doing kickboxing and became a British kids champion. Then because of covid it all stopped he lost his way . I decided to bring my family down south to be closer to me.So wanted to get him back into karate or kickboxing to socialise and be part of a team again. But after this experience I’m not sure he will ever go back to another class.

The best martial arts school in Colchester, great instructors, friendly atmosphere, everyone feels welcome, nothing is too much to ask
