Arakan Martial Art Self Defence

I thoroughly enjoy learning Arakan. It gives me confidence to handle situations that may arise and overall has had a positive impact on how I carry myself day to day. I'm having a lot of fun in the process too.

Keegan has been working weekly with my son for 2 years. I believe the experience has been transformative for my son. He is a cheeky kid but is never having issues around physicality. Keegan has taught him respect for the physical and mental. THanks

Mark Boulten from Arakan Martial Art is an exceptional teacher that prepares you physically and mentally. Highly recommend attending his classes

Fantastic instructor so precise & patient in all aspects of training. An absolute pleasure doing my lessons with Daniel, I recommend him to anyone looking to both learn & improve their ARAKAN skills

Jack is an amazing teacher fir my son with autism. Jack engages well with my son and always keeps him in the go. Keep up the excellent work Jack.

Arakan is Awesome! My instructor Bailey has been excellent taking me through things step by step. Great for confidence and self defence!

I have been doing martial arts since High school; amd this is the first time (in almost 20 years, I've felt I'm learning real-life techniques)

Arakan has been a wonderful experience for my son. Kerrod not only is amazing at teaching martial arts and defence yet is a great inspiration mentor, coach and friend to my son. Kerrod treats his students as family. Kerrod has really helped shape my son into the amazing young man he is today. Arakan and Kerrod has definitely added to my sons extra confidence, defence skills and ability to hold himself. Thank you Kerrod and the Arakan Team. Many Thanks. Carly and Josh.

I am enjoying our lessons with Daniel. I have a lot more courage now than before. I am stronger. I want to continue to grow and also become fitter and lose weight. Daniel is an awesome instructor. He makes our lessons fun and enjoyable.

It’s coming up close to 2 years since I started with Arakan. The impact that it has had on me is phenomenal, training with some of the best trainers has prepared me for real life situations. Not only has Arakan taught me self defence and life saving skills but it has shown me self growth, confidence, strength, a martial & spiritual connection. When I started I was a little bit shy, I was embarrassed and held back a lot, but now, I’m strong, I have confidence, I have self control, martial ethics, I train whole heartedly & I’m proud to be part of a caring, loving and extremely supporting family.
I highly recommend Arakan to anyone and everyone, it will teach you self & martial discipline, self defence and control, it will show you self growth, confidence and the will to want to improve every training session. It’s a Martial Art unlike any other, I can’t compare Arakan to other Martial Arts, to find out what it’s like and have fun while training, come and give Arakan a try, you won’t regret it. ️

In the past 6 months - my instructor Matt has shown me techniques that would protect me and my family if I was confronted on the street by a bully or psychopath.

The next 12 months is about learning from Matt on how to inflict so much pain on the perpetrator that they would never ever attempt their stupid actions again.

Matt explains the fundamentals of Arakan thoroughly and we never take short cuts.

Loving the journey.

I discovered this highly refined and exceptional form of martial arts by accident while walking my dog. Keegan is an amazing one-on-one instructor over the past few months I've not missed a single class. In addition, Rob the chief instructor, is professional and profoundly adept in his teaching of self defence. I couldn't recommend the pursuit of Arakan martial art more highly and with respect to personal training on a basic level I've been immensely impressed by the precision and expertise of physical exercises to complement the technical skills which also are taught with excellent explanations! (As a teacher of language i'm continually learning from the unique experiences of Arakan training which is an example of a very adept educational program. Please consider training for your health, both physical and mental. It has completely transformed my attitude and given my body the proper work out it needed at almost 50. No plans for a mid life crisis, with Arakan my dog and I live life fully like never before.

The Team is invested in your journey and your progress. Plenty of opportunities to test your development throughout your journey. At 60 its about staying active. I know 7 years of training has helped me maintain my health & wellbeing.

My 11 year old Son Luca has started private Arakan lessons with Ryan a few weeks ago and really enjoys it. Ryan is such a great teacher. He is so patient and given Luca so much confidence. Thank you Ryan

Although only new to the art I can attest to it being life changing! That's not just fancy words or cliche, but the honest truth. Not only does it teach self defence but I can see better co ordination skills, better memory, fitness and confidence (that's a big one) already, im a better person. I had been trying for soo long to find a trainer who would work with me, who understood what "I" wanted and my health situations and I found one here. My trainer Abi, pushes me enough to show me its possible and teaches the way I learn, its evident everyone involved is passionate about what they do and they encourage the little wins. I believe the team at Arakan genuinely care for students and each session is tailored to the individual. Practical Self defence that doesn't discriminate and much more. I highly recommend Arakan and i don't do reviews lightly. I encourage anyone considering, to try it!

My journey as an Arakan student for some years now has provided me with the necessary tools in life to approach any challenge with confidence, focus and power. The ability to respond to sudden conflicts and manage stress in a positive and measured way is only just one of the benefits this martial art espouses in its ethos and training. It has even assisted me greatly in improving my golf swing and game overall which came as a wonderful surprise that I attribute to my Arakan journey. I have the highest respect and gratitude for my instructors and fellow students. I’m proud to be an active member of the Arakan community.

I recommend Arakan Martial Arts as a professional and ethical club of the highest standard.
All instructors are full time, highly trained and lead by a Senior Instructor who is a true martial arts Master with blood lines linked to this unique style.
This is not a ring based martial arts: this is a self defence/attack style evolved to keep you and your family safe in today's world.
Arakan offers private lessons, private groups and group classes 6 days and nights a week, for all ages, male and female.
I am always grateful to have found Arakan Martial Arts and will continue training for a long, long time.

I have been training Arakan for just over 4 years not only has Arakan helped me get fitter and stronger physically but also mentally aswell as given me more confidence in day to day life.

Arakan is a versatile martial art that is effective in the street. The instructors very professional and passionate about what they do would recommend it to anyone

Been training for 13 years. A great art and a great club with fantastic people. It's a great environment where everone is welcome. They even offer a gym that is great for helping to rehab and strengthen your body. Can't say enough good things about Arakan
