Services
Yes all our staff our DBS checked and we have a written policy which all staff are trained. No its not, although we believe all techniques should be tested against a resisting opponent, this is only when you are ready and comfortable to do so. Our fitness classes are taught by martial art experts. They'll get you as fit as any gym session, why not pick up some self-defense skills on the way.
Etiquette has always been a big part of martial arts. We are super proud of the atmosphere and vibe that we have here at Kraken and are determined to maintain it. Turn up to class on time! If you happen to be slightly late, once in a blue moon, then please wait off of the mat until you have permission from the coach to join in.
This Junior MMA class is designed for younger children just beginning their martial arts journey. Once the fundamentals are learnt children progress to a wider range and more detailed curriculum. This class is when children are entering their final stage of our junior curriculum. Upon completion of this stage they'll have the skillset and knowledge to enter into our adults classes.
Respect for values: Honesty, courtesy, integrity, perseverance and excellence are some curriculum areas of focus. These qualities help both children and adults become great leaders. Enhanced self esteem: By learning these skills and improving your physical condition, you become more comfortable in all situations - whether you're in danger or simply doing a task that takes you beyond your comfort zone.
This allows you 8 classes per month and full use of all of our facilities, open mat, weights room, sauna etc. This allows you 5 classes per month and full use of all of our facilities, open mat, weights room, sauna etc. Same as our 'Adult Gold' Membership except that it is for Off-Peak times: Full use of all facilities & unlimited classes on every single weekday up until 4pm!

Where on earth is my beer belly?!?!
What kind of place do you call this? I didn’t even plan to join a/this gym and look what’s happened to me now!
My son did two trial sessions, enjoyed it, then fully joined a week before the first lockdown.
I continued to pay as no one wants to see a local independent business go under, so when the gyms reopened at the end of July he decided that he didn’t want to go…Roblox took over his life!
As I was paying for it I thought why not give it a try?
I thought that I was fairly fit as I played football 5 times a week, obviously having a few beers after

The trainers are all wonderful and friendly, which helps my daughter to feel comfortable during her class. She always enjoys her sessions and her confidence has grown! All their equipment is professional and they've done an amazing job with the café downstairs. Really great!

I’ve been going to Kraken for 2 years now - from the moment I walked in, I was welcomed and encouraged by all of the coaches. I was a total beginner having never been to a gym before, but I have always been made to feel able while being encouraged to push myself.
The classes are cleverly tailored to suit all abilities and are incredibly varied so the sessions never get boring! The coaches are really friendly and brilliant teachers which is what makes it such an enjoyable place to be.
The facilities and equipment are excellent and always cleaned to the highest standard.
Kraken also has a cafe

Great place to learn martial arts, whether its for leisure, fitness, self defense or competition purposes. Great facilities, skilled and knowledgeable coaches with proven track records and a welcoming atmosphere. I've spent many hours on the mats at Kraken and have enjoyed every minute. Recommended for both beginners and the more experienced.
