Great place both my boys just joined 2weeks now and they absolutely love it, the instructors are amazing super friendly and very professional.
This place is amazing! Perfect approach to teaching martial arts to children. Daughter who is 7 & son who is 11 absolutely love it.
Samuel joined FMA in September/October 23 he’s always been shy, the staff were very friendly and welcoming and after the first trial session that was it Samuel wanted to join. He looks forward to going every week and learning new skills. He was voted by other students for best costume for Halloween which made his day.
We have been coming for a month and my son is loving it and learning a lot. Staff are awesome, strict but make it fun to learn. Instructions are clear and they check that each kid is doing it correctly. Would highly recommend!
Very friendly place for all the family! I joined the ladies class at the beginning of the year and have really enjoyed it. Classes are friendly with great teachers, it’s a great full body workout and I love the sense of achievement each class gives me. I feel supported with my fitness goals and achieving my belts. Thank you FMA!!
Our eldest has been attending since they were 3 years old and they love it! They've progressed from Ninja Cubs to being part of the Advanced class.
Every step of the way Miss Whitehead makes sure it is fun, focussed and supportive while helping our child grow in confidence, compassion and understanding.
Since lockdown, both my husband and I have joined to get our own fitness levels and personal strength at its best.
The overall vibe of FMA Chester is fantastic!
Family-focussed but with very real life skills underpinning everything.
Respect. Courage. Perseverance. Self-Worth.
Awesome my daughter loves coming here
My son has been going here for almost a year now and loves every class. You can see the growth that has happened physically and mentally for him since he started, it's incredible!
What can I really say the rating speaks for itself Mr Steen and others have brought my. Son so far this past year with confidence and learning he learnt so much great teachers and great set. Off Kids.Highly recommend any one better
This really is an amazing family martial arts! I attend the women’s classes, my husband does Krav and my son does martial arts and is now junior black belt!
For me, the women’s class is perfect. It’s local with easy access and an excellent venue with all the gear u need. Miss Moore is great and is good at adapting the class to our needs and focusing on what we need to practice. The group of women are fab, we have a laugh and everyone is kind and helpful. This suits me better than any gym; u get a good balance of exercise and also learning something new. Love it ♥️
FMA has developed and raised self confidence in our son, pushing his boundaries and developing his coordination and techniques through a welcoming environment. The instructors are friendly and approachable and always ready to encourage their pupils to achieve their best.
This has been one of the best decisions we have made for our daughter, the team are so understanding of her Asd/adhd she is building friendships and skills for life her confidence and fitness has grown its a great way for her release any built up frustrations from the day , the little mentor talks are helping too it is true its like a family they look out for each other and no one is ever left out inclusion for everyone 😀
We had our taster session tonight, with our 8 year old son, he absolutely loved it, myself and his dad can see this is going to be just what he needs. Looking forward to seeing him progress. I just want to add how welcoming and friendly the whole expirience was from staff to other familys and children.
My daughter Izzy 10 has been going to FMA now for what must be over or close to a year. She has progressed from beginners class and into advanced and loves attending twice a week. She has also started an additional Elite leadership class in which she helps out some of the less experienced members. The staff are amazing with all the kids and she has fun every lesson. I would recommend to anyone thinking about joining to just go down and sign up, you won't regret it.
Myself, my husband and our two children(6,9) enrolled on the FMA family classes. they are flexible enough to fit in with the kids busy social schedules and inclusive enough that we can all join in! It has really brought us together as a family and I can't recommend FMA enough. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and the setting is immaculate! It's easy to find and park and the instructors are kind, respectful and knowledgeable.
My son has been going here for almost a year now and loves every class. You can see the growth that has happened physically and mentally for him since he started, it's incredible!
My son has been attending this club for 6 years. He was struggling to concentrate at school and the helpful and patient instructors have really helped him to focus and stay on task. My daughter joined 2 years ago and also absolutely loves it. My son has qualified as a black belt and we have been so impressed by the level of skill and fitness that they both have reached.
