My name is Thanos and I started training martial arts at the age of 9, beginning with Karate where I earned my black belt, then moving on to kick boxing. As I got older and more committed to the Dojo, I naturally took on a teaching role and spent four years as a teaching assistant. During that time, I started to appreciate the fitness side of martial arts, focusing on bodyweight excersises and running, it served me well when it was time to complete my military national service in Greece, where I joined the Army Rangers. Shortly after finishing my national service I moved to the UK and aspired to join the Parachute Regiment Reserve. That is where I met Lee, whilst I was still a recruit. Naturally the conversation would drift towards martial arts, so Lee offered me the opportunity to coach in BMMA as long as if I complete training to become a Paratrooper and his Instructors course. Arguably two of the hardest courses I have participated in.

Testimonials

I think BMMA offers a fantastic vehicle for students to learn martial arts and take charge of their own self-development.

As a mum, I love the confidence and techniques they are developing to 'stay safe' and, whilst Jake keeps it fun, I think these are important life skills for all ages. I can't recommend BMMA enough!

I honestly didn't think Martial Arts was something I'd enjoy but I'm so pleased I gave it a go. Each week combines a tough but fantastic workout in a friendly environment and Jake and Dan never fail to keep the classes such fun. I highly recommend trying it!

Testimonials

I attend BMMA as a (cough) mature student who has always been 'allergic' to exercise. But after only a few weeks, I've seen changes in my overall fitness levels as well as positive changes in my body tone.

All of the instructors are friendly and helpful, a credit to Charlotte and the effort that she puts in. My daughter is a little soldier and has just accomplished her red and black stripe belt and wants to be a black belt like Charlotte!

My children have been training with Charlotte for 7 years and all 3 enjoy her classes. We're very proud to have a black-belt in the family - and two more in the making! The atmosphere at the academy is very friendly and the other instructors are great too. We wouldn't train anywhere else!
