Master Brett Nelson

In martial arts, we spend a huge amount of time working with partners. Whether you’re practising combinations, self-defence drills, sparring or simply holding pads, your progress is directly linked to the person standing opposite you. That means being a good training partner is not just a nice extra - it is an essential part of becoming a better martial artist.

It’s nearly time for one of the biggest, loudest, proudest (and occasionally most chaotic) events in the Family Martial Arts Centres calendar…GRADUATION DAY – Sunday 26th April!

You’ve probably heard us talk about the “8 Key Concepts” in class. If you train at one of our full-time centres, you’ll also have seen them displayed on the wall. But what do they really mean? And more importantly… how do they apply to you, your training and your life outside the Do Jang?
