Very friendly group. Senior students have a wide range of knowledge from various martial arts backgrounds. And the process they use allows you to learn very practical skills for self defence while constantly linking the movements to tried and tested techniques. Modern Applications based on Traditional Martial Arts.
Manchester Karate's online Quarantine lessons are a superb way of keeping my Karate and my fitness in good condition during lock-down. The live lessons are a good mix of working hard on your techniques, understanding your own body as you do so; entertaining and exhausting :-D On top of that there is plenty of helpful and diverse recorded material for inspiration and reference between the live lessons. I can highly recommend this to any martial arts practitioner to get you over the dojo-free time.
Have been attending the classes for the last 5 months, it's safe to say it's the best Martial Arts Dojo that I've been to so far. All instructors are friendly and welcoming, the techniques are explained thoroughly and without prejudice which makes the place very comfortable for beginners. The instructors bring in different set of techniques and styles to learn from, making each class worth attending. Unlike traditional karate, this martial arts community continuously improves the curriculum by exploring traditional (Karate's connection to its Chinese roots) and modern martial arts. Literally, each black belt goes through research work and presents it to the community to further improve the martial art. At Missing Link you get classes from Monday to Saturday which makes it flexible for anyone. There's also seminars organised every 6 months, sometimes in branches across Europe. I can't recommend it enough, just give it a try and see it for yourself! :)
Friendly, fun and interesting lessons that made Karate much easier for me to learn. Instructors are all kind, patient and very helpful. Classes are also very affordable, especially when compared to other schools.
I have attended almost every lesson, and I am happy about the experience in general. The people are amazing, there is not a single grumpy face around. The training is interesting, and the instructors explain everything in a manner that is easy to understand. The training also is well priced, affordable to pretty much anyone. At our current economic climate one can not ignore this. I sincerely recommend everyone to try this out.
