My son has been attending ZMA academy for about 2 years and he’s loving it. He’s getting stronger all the time, he’s always motivated to go to classes twice a week which is amazing. His fitness is great because of it as well as his self confidence going into high school. He likes the variety provided within the classes eg. the kata and techniques and especially he likes the sparring and learning different forms of martial arts. I highly recommend ZMA academy.

My sons (10 and 13) have been training here for around a year. Curtis is very supportive and a great teacher. Both boys have progressed well. The classes have improved their overall fitness, technique and most importantly, they have learned self-defense skills.

ZMA is excellent, and Curtis is an amazing instructor for all ages. My son enjoys his classes so much he goes twice a week. The location is well equipped, timetable is straightforward and parking is great. Curtis does a fantastic job helping kids to meet their goals and the class expectations while still having fun. My kid has always been hyper and a bit uncoordinated, so it's been amazing watching him concentrate on learning his katas and how to tie his uniform himself, and pass his first grading. Absolutely highly recommend ZMA.

My son has trained here for a few years now. Both in the kids classes and private sessions with the trainers Curtis and Tom. His skills and confidence have come a long way thanks to how great the gym is. Everyone at the gym makes him feel comfortable and like they’re all a group of friends, even the older guys who have been training a long time. If you’ve ever thought about starting to train martial arts or getting your kid into it I really think there’s nowhere better in terms of the one on one attention they get from staff and how comfortable they make everyone feel there.

ZMA is an excellent Martial Arts Centre. Sensai Curtis and his team of instructors have guided our son since he was six in an includive and supportive environment. They instill essential life attributes in their lessons such as discipline, team work, fitness, kindness and excellent martial arts training. We enjoy the culture and love turning up to martial arts each week.
