Testimonials

The techniques and skills Ian is teaching are genuine and proven to work, they aren't just out of a book and Ian himself is going back to his teachers and learning new concepts - he's not content with just passing on what he's learnt; but also what he's learning.
Joining Ian's class is helping my weight drop down as well as improving my cardio strength. I can reflect on the first couple of weeks and see how far I've already come.
I recommend Ian's martial arts and self-defence classes to anyone who is serious about defending themselves and having some fun at the same time.

Not long been with Hampshire Self Protection, in the period I've been with them I have learnt some fantastic techniques for real-life situations. The students and teachers are all very welcoming and we have a great laugh, when Ian turns up the pressure its still very enjoyable. This club is up there with the best! 10/10 for Thai, and fitness. Ian takes into consideration any health issues and works with you. My peak flow meter reading has gone from 550 all the way up to 750! I highly recommend Hampshire Self Protection to anyone.

Dave Mingay
I can recommend this club highly to anyone who wants to build their self-protection skills, self-confidence and fitness.

Being forced into a difficult situation can happen to anyone at any time. Having the invaluable knowledge and skills taught by the club would only benefit anyone in enabling them to protect themselves.

The classes have even helped my confidence in real life events. An example, I have recently just got a new job and I’m certain the confidence I have built in the short time with the club helped me immensely during the stressful interview process.

My only regret is not having started these classes at a younger age.

If you are considering starting a martial arts class even as I did at beginner level aged 30. The club will make you feel very welcome and I'm confident you won't regret the decision.
