It is the Academy's goal to create an environment where, our student's can train martial arts in a safe, fun & friendly atmosphere, offering Martial Arts training that will educate, inspire and energise you physically and mentally. This is a 2 month programme for each life skills, get rewarded with stickers and certificate on completion.

The best Academy I have been to by far. Tried a few styles before going to John's, but for variation and fitness combined it's by far the best. I'm sorry I can't get down anymore due to work commitments. Having completed the 4 week course, I cannot recommend the training highly enough. From the minute I walked in the door there was just a fantastic atmosphere.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Report

I'm a paragraph. I'm a great place for you to tell a story and let your users know a little more about you. John McKean Academy is currently authorised to share Brazillian Jiu Jitsu under Professor Rick Young. John is currently a Blue Belt 3 stripes under his instructor. Although alot of BJJ schools focus on competing and helping it improve your MMA game (which is great).

Best place around to train Martial Arts. Friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable coaches providing a one stop shop for kickboxing, jui jitsu and MKG. Plenty of classes to suit all levels including kids.

I can't thank all the instructor's enough for the amount of self confidence they have taught my son. He is honestly a different boy since starting about a year ago.
Amazing academy and would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for somewhere for their children or themselves to learn Mixed Martial Arts.
Excellent value for money for the amount of different skills and knowledge my son has learned.

Best place for a serious but fun workout. Both myself and my son have been going to John McKean Martial Arts Academy for almost a year now and couldnt recommend it highly enough. Made to feel as part of the "family" from day one, and looking forward to every session. Best place in Scotland for martial arts and priced for everybody's pocket.
