As a field hockey player in college I was always in great shape. But after graduation, my job as a professor just seemed to take up all my time and as a result - I put on some weight. I was looking for a way to get back into shape in just a few hours a week and yoga and the gym wasn't getting it done for me. I started kickboxing classes here and was amazed at how fast the weight came off. I lost 1 stone 11lbs in just a few months!

The Bushido Academy of Martial Artists was founded in 1979, by Grand Master Chusan (Pete Delane), in order to combat the declining standard of martial arts taught in the West. Here there are no contracts, no commercial gradings, no withholding of 'secret' techniques at the Bushido Academy, only trained instructors dedicated to the spirit of excellence and the personal advancement of each student. It takes courage, determination and commitment.
Our aim is to share our passion with you and to inspire you to achieve your true potential. There are no time limits on gradings, you take them when your instructor feels you are ready, andnot every 4-6 months as a means of generating money as some other clubs do. Jason our instructor has over 20 years of karate experience and demands the highest standards of instruction for all his students.
