New Academy!

As some of you may already know, East Coast Martial Arts are moving!


We have a new academy which will be a total of 6000sq ft. There is going to be a fully matted martial arts area, a separate boxing area with punch bags and speed balls, a separate gym & fitness area with equipment and free weights, a separate Samurai Sam area for the 3-7 year olds, a toilet and changing facility, reception & lounge area, and a shop. The centre will also have a private gated car park and entrance.


The new centre is located at Linx Pictures which is at the bottom of Regent Road. All existing members will be receiving newsletters with map and directions to the new place.


We will be moving in on Monday 4th April, with a Grand Opening on Saturday 9th April. We're hoping to hold a few training seminars as well as performing numerous demonstrations in kickboxing, tae kwon do, karate, ju jitsu, forms and fighting, and it will be open to the public. So bring your friends and family down for a free open day!


We'll also be running a lot of extra classes once the new centre opens, including fitness and martial arts classes, in both the daytimes and evenings. So if there's anything in particular you'd like to see at the academy, let us know and we'll see what we can do!


Last note - There will be monthly membership packages available for just fitness, just gym, and just martial arts, as well as all inclusive packages for people doing a bit of everything. There is also the option to pay as you go, so you can choose the cheapest solution for you.


Keep checking for updates and pictures!
