Thank you SCMA

Over the last 5 years at SCMA, I’ve gained skills, fitness and lots of friends, but most importantly for me, I’ve gained confidence. I walked into that first session with the lowest self esteem a person could have, and I left the session today with a black belt, knowing that I’ve pushed myself harder than my 13-year-old self ever thought I could. Thank you so much to everyone at South… Read more “Thank you SCMA”

“So pleased with the classes and the Instructors”

My daughter attends SCMA Little Dragons classes. I am so pleased with both the classes and the Instructors. The Instructors are very good with children. The class is a mixture of learning Taekwondo and games which for the age range of 4-6 is perfect. I also love the natural teaching of respect and manners. My daughter’s confidence has grown tremendously in the 6 months she has been going. I would… Read more ““So pleased with the classes and the Instructors””

The Instructors are brilliant with the children

My son has being coming to Little Dragons for just over a year now. He really enjoys the sessions and is always eager to learn either new moves or a little more on their current topic, his favourite topic so far is the emergency services. He was always quite quiet but being at Little Dragons he has flourished and is now much more confident in trying new things and making… Read more “The Instructors are brilliant with the children”

I have recommended SCMA to lots of people…

My children joined the club as Little Dragons (4-6 years) and had a wonderful time with great instructors. They became more co-ordinated and self confident. They are now juniors and working their way up the belts. The club has been brilliant with them, the ethos is supportive. The outside activities like the camps, Christmas parties, bowling, fast defence and Moors & BBQ training are fun and help the children grow… Read more “I have recommended SCMA to lots of people…”

A fantastic club and a community

My daughter was struggling in school with confidence, time and again her report came back saying she lacked confidence and wouldn’t answer questions or put her hand up in class. Since starting Taekwondo with SCMA she has become a lot more self-confident and no longer panics in her exams. Her school reports are now totally opposite, and they have even stated that her hand is now always up. I think… Read more “A fantastic club and a community”

Over 20 year with SCMA – they must be doing something right!

Over 20 year with SCMA – they must be doing something right. SCMA has been a part of my family’s life for a long time. My son started training with SCMA over 20 years ago when he was 7 and rising up through the grades to become a 2nd Dan. Although he has moved on, his interest in martial arts has not diminished, going on to experience other disciplines at university… Read more “Over 20 year with SCMA – they must be doing something right!”

I cannot praise SCMA enough…

My boys have been with SCMA for the past 9 years and they have loved every minute. From Little Dragons, where they play games whilst learning fundamental skills like listening, discipline, balance and team work, to Juniors where you see them develop self-confidence, respect and self-defence. I cannot praise SCMA enough for the support they have given my boys and would recommend any parent who wants their child to succeed… Read more “I cannot praise SCMA enough…”

Give this a try – you won’t be disappointed

For a year I sat and watched my 10 year old grow in confidence taking part in Taekwondo. It suddenly dawned on me that I too could be getting fit and take part. Well….. I’ve never looked back! I never in a million years thought I’d be any good and my confidence and self belief has grown massively. The whole SCMA family is so supportive and I can’t thank my… Read more “Give this a try – you won’t be disappointed”

Highly recommended to all

As a family of five, we have been on a long journey with SCMA and its founder Chris Wood. The club has provided us with a disciplined sport and we have advanced up the ranks and feel like family with other students. It’s a never ending learning curve that keeps mind and body active. We wouldn’t have had it any other way, given the choice. It is a good martial… Read more “Highly recommended to all”

The MacWhirter family

I would highly recommend SCMA to everyone!

My daughter and myself joined the club two years ago and are currently 3rd Kup. SCMA has become a big part of our lives and our family’s, as not only learning Taekwondo, but also being involved in a lot of great social events and competitions which have improved my daughter’s confidence greatly. I would highly recommend SCMA to everyone!

Lynnette Hamilton-Cox, Student & Parent

Everyone should learn to defend themselves!

Our family has been training with SCMA since 2003. Our 3 boys were little and my husband and I joined too, not wanting to just sit on the benches and watch – it looked too good to miss out!
We went through all the grades and finally, all got our Black Belts.
Our oldest son is working towards his 4th Dan, and we are working towards our 3rd… Read more “Everyone should learn to defend themselves!”

Lifestyle choice

Our whole family have been training with SCMA and Chris Wood for the best part of 14 years. It has given all of us, but especially my three sons, a sense of self awareness and confidence and a respect for the tenets of TaekwonDo. This is a wonderful family activity that is a lifelong learning experience. I would thoroughly recommend this club to anyone, but especially to families.

My little boy Wezley

My little boy Wezley started Taekwondo as a Little Dragon when he was 4 and 4 months, he was very nervous on his first night but when he realised he could do the star jumps like the other dragons he soon wanted to join in. We have done the competitions, the kids camp… Read more “My little boy Wezley”
