West Byfleet martial arts for kids recommended by parents

At Unleash Self Defence, our children's martial arts programme empowers youngsters to navigate conflict peacefully. We champion innovative teaching methods and emphasise the practical application of martial arts and self-defence skills in genuine, everyday situations.

We structure our classes by age group and tailor the curriculum to meet the specific needs of each age group.

Our Super Warriors (ages 4-6) actively learn fundamental techniques through imaginative scenarios involving mischievous Naughty Pirates and Goblins.

As children progress to our Street Warriors (ages 7-12), the training evolves to address the more serious issue of real-life bullying. It incorporates realistic scenarios that include the practical application of self-defence strategies.

Our classes significantly will improve physical fitness and overall well-being. They will also boost mental resilience and provide a strong foundation for a healthy lifestyle. We actively teach essential teamwork, communication, and leadership skills through collaborative group activities.

We actively instil core values such as respect, discipline, and self-control. Explore our gallery to see pictures of recent classes.

Unleash Self Defence Syllabus

Our martial arts classes incorporate elements of:

Thai-boxing

Thai Boxing is a national sport in Thailand that emphasises powerful punches, kicks, elbows, and knee strikes.

Kung Fu

This Chinese martial art emphasises movement, discipline, and philosophical principles.

Muay Thai

Known as the ‘Art of Eight Limbs,’ Muay Thai combines the use of fists, elbows, knees, and shins in combat.

MMA

Mixed Martial Arts is a hybrid combat sport that blends striking, grappling, and submission techniques from various martial arts.

Wing Chun

This close-range fighting style specialises in quick strikes, trapping, and defence

Karate

This Japanese martial art focuses on powerful strikes, blocks, and disciplined training.

Taekwondo

This Korean martial art is renowned for its dynamic kicking techniques and speed.

Krav Maga

Krav Maga is an Israeli self-defence system that focuses on real-world combat. It is used by security professionals, military special forces, and law enforcement agencies worldwide.

Our training incorporates many elements from these disciplines but has significantly evolved to not only become completely unique in its method and application, but also specifically designed with the aim and focus of being truly reality-based i.e. offering you a self defence system genuinely applicable for real-life scenarios.

Through consistent practice and regular classes, our students develop the confidence and peace of mind that comes from knowing they can protect themselves and their loved ones if the need arises.

In addition to group classes, we offer private sessions and small group training tailored to individual needs. We also organise corporate team-building events and specialised self-defence workshops, providing practical skills in a supportive and empowering environment.

What our happy students in Byfleet say about us

Vangelis Sakelliou

Great course, amazing experience. I highly recommend it to everyone, age doesn't matter. I chose it and it helped me learning self defence skills, improve my confidence and it is a good exercise as well.

pip jones

We have used Unleashed at our all-girls South London school twice this year and have booked a third session already to give all the girls the opportunity to take part. The sessions were well structured and parents thought it was a great opportunity. Communication was great and they were flexible when we had to change a date. The sessions themselves were organised in response to student voice that they didn’t feel safe in the community. These sessions gave the students the tools to defend themselves physically based on real scenarios but also gave them tips to keep themselves safe day to day. Couldn’t recommend more.

Setareh Jalalifar

"Thank you for creating such a positive and empowering environment in your self-defense class. My daughter is gaining confidence, strength, and valuable life skills each week. I truly appreciate the dedication and care you put into teaching the students!" Setareh

Sharom Gonzaga

My son absolutely loves going to his classes here at Unleash Self Defence. The instructors are brilliant, very knowledgeable, encouraging, friendly and update us on our child's progress - we feel like family. They truly want every student to succeed and do their best to help not only with the physical aspect, but with the important life lessons along the way that are essential to understand in order to live your best life. There is a good balance of both physical movement as well as teaching the kids the skills to be calm, more focused and disciplined. Unleash is not only a place to learn Martial Arts, it is a place where all of the lessons are taught around real life such as developing defence skills. These were all reasons why I wanted to enroll my son here as he generally has very chaotic energy and needs an activity that can allow him to burn off some of that energy while still learning the life lessons of good behavior and having discipline. Our son has built up incredible confidence, focus, and physical strength, we could not be happier. UNLEASH IS THE BEST!

Tanya Brunello

From the moment I reached out to Unleash Self Defence I knew I had chosen the best. They immediately welcomed me and my niece and made us feel part of the family. Absolutely reccomended!!

Charmaine Cushing

A great physical educational experience for children. Fun, teaches discipline, defence skills and the team are so friendly!

Stephen Holmes

My son (7) has been going for about a year and loves it! Tehseen is great with the kids, perfectly judging the right level of fun and teaching for them. The classes encompass a nice range of real-world techniques for their age group (blocking, punches, kicks, wrestling) that they can easily get to grips with, and through repeated practice build up speed and confidence. He especially loves the wrestling :)

Mario Palermo

Really friendly family run club. There is a great bunch of people who attend sessions which are focused on self defence in different situations. I enjoy attending and always look forward to going.

Crystal Davis

My son started Unleashed in the Summer and he loves it! It has built his confidence and also encourages him to interact with other children of all ages. The instructors are so friendly and professional but also very serious about how the children are to use what they have learnt. Highly recommend!

Ewelina Gocek

Highly recommended defence class. My son 6yr old enjoys going and training with Farhaj and his lovely team. He slowly builds up his confidence and coordination among with other skills. Thank you.

Lauren Marks

I would highly recommend Unleash Self Defence to anyone interested. The instructors are very knowledgeable, really reassuring and made me feel really welcome as a beginner. I felt nervous as I’d never done anything like it before but they set me at ease quickly ☺️ Keep up the great work guys!

John Mc D

This is a great club to train with. The instructors are very friendly and knowledgeable. The classes are the perfect duration being just 1 hour. The students are very friendly and respectful of each other when sparing so you do not need to worry about getting injured. I have been training here about 2 months twice a week and I would highly recommend it for beginners or people with prior experience.

Dave Cordle

As a parent you hope it never happens, but if my children do ever get set upon I'm confident that they both have the best chance of defending themselves and getting out of the situation. One is now 22 and the other 18 and they did Unleash for 7 and 9 years respectively. Both unfortunately had occasion to use what they learnt, one when set upon by a boy twice his size (put the assailant to the ground and walked away), the other in a night club to get free her friend from being assaulted. I've now been training myself for a year (I'm in my 60s). It's fun, friendly, good for fitness and I'm learning new skills. So its for all ages and the thing I love most is that they encourage younger members to share their skills and teach people who are older than them - great for building their confidence and employability skills.

Paul Egan

Friendly & welcoming atmosphere with knowledgeable instructors.

Laurie Nagle

My son thoroughly enjoys each class he has learnt so much and continually does so each instructor is great very patient and they will work with each students untill they get the moves.

Jeff Romp

Have been attending for a couple of months and I've loved every second of it! Both Tehseen and Tahir have made me feel really welcome and are great at teaching with a lot of patience and encouragement. Would highly recommend. I am 49 years old and never done anything like this before but I am so glad I did!

Anna

Amazing self defence classes!I highly recomed it.Definitely boost my 9 years old son's confidence and parents are always welcome to watch!

Waleed Shah

Had the opportunity to train with Tahir and the crew during my recent visit to UK. The session was incredibly practical, engaging, and full of valuable self-defence techniques that anyone can apply in real life. The team’s professionalism and friendly approach made the experience both enjoyable and empowering. Highly recommend their training to anyone looking to build confidence and learn effective self-defence skills

Jen Ciarleglio

Our kids absolutely adore Unleashed! We've seen them respond so well to the easy to follow - with just the right amount of fun challenge - physical teaching. They also have flourished under the principles of respect for yourself and others that are taught along the way. For us as parents it gives us more confidence that, when faced with unavoidable conflict on the playground, or anywhere else, that they will respond - not rashly or helplessly - but appropriately.

Filippo Spinello

Fantastic self-defense course! (Now rebranded as Unleash Self Defense) The instructors are highly knowledgeable, creating a friendly, welcoming atmosphere that’s perfect for both beginners advanced. They focus on clear guidance and individual support, making sure everyone feels comfortable and confident. Highly recommended!
