Kids Martial Arts 4-6

My Son thoroughly enjoys attending. He thrives to be the best he can each lesson thank to Sensei. They didnt have the best start but he has genuine respect towards them as a result & they too have learnt how to aproach him & encourage positive attitude. He has so much more self control 👌

I had lost all my confidence after putting on weight over covid and moving to a new area, I forced my self to sign up to fit in 5 with Lauren and I haven’t looked back she is so supportive and I love the routines, Lauren has helped me grow in confidence and is always there to help and give you a kick up the bum if needed! Lauren and Matthew are a great team and I couldn’t think of going anywhere else.
Gwen Roberts
My son loves attending the classes at PMA, Lauren and Matthew are great with kids, teaching them about respect but also with a fun element. Would definitely highly recommend to anyone.

Our daughter really enjoys the combination of karate and kick boxing (and she loves the pad work). Senseis Matthew and Lauren work hard to ensure that the classes are welcoming, fun and engaging for all ages and levels of experience.

My daughter is having fun in their sessions. Not only that the Sensei's are knowledgeable but also knows how to incorporate fun while training.

My six year old son attended free summer holiday taster classes in Tremadog. He absolutely loved it from day one. We signed him up for weekly classes as soon as school restarted and we haven’t looked back. PMA is an inclusive, friendly, confidence building, fun karate & kick boxing program that has improved my son’s fitness, confidence and overall attitude. It’s great. After 2.5 months he has already graduated from white belt to yellow belt. The fact that these classes promote self confidence, self defence and self control is the main reason we signed our son up. Lauren and Matthew are great teachers and make every class so much fun.

Lauren & Matt are brilliant 🤩. As before starting back in May I used to struggle to get up off the floor and now I’m a lot stronger and have a lot more confidence in myself 😊. I haven’t felt this healthy since I was in my 20’s 🫣. Highly recommend …
