This Is What Our Students Say

SMA is an excellent environment for kids to learn the art of self defence and build self confidence. Our son has been attending for the past 2mths and loves his training with guidance of Gary and his team of Black Belt instructors. We highly recommend the program at SMA

Having trained at SMA for many years now, I have never once considered quitting or moving, this is likely a result of the excellent teaching staff, brilliantly designed curriculum, and the wholesome community that has stemmed from the excellent student-to-teacher relationships.

I want to say a massive thank you to the staff at Shire Martial Arts. My 5 year old’s self-confidence has developed enormously since joining little dolphins. The team has been so nurturing and encouraging. I would highly recommend them for all kids

More Information

At Shire Martial Arts our beginners program is based on Taekwondo, which is a unique activity because it is a hybrid of two thousand years of traditional Korean self defence, and the latest in modern western sport science.

Martial Arts is both a scientific study and an artistic expression of the human body’s natural design so the whole body may be used to move in its most efficient manner. These moves are done within the context of self defence...

How To Overcome Fear: The Journey

Knowing how to overcome fear isn’t a quick fix. It’s not a matter of just doing ‘xyz’ and then that’s it, you’ve overcome your fear. 

I like to say, "it's an ongoing process". Or, to be more succinct, "learning how to overcome fear is a personal development journey"
