Developed a great passion for martial arts and decided to share their knowledge and skills with others by opening Acomb Martial Arts.
Acomb Martial Arts is a family-friendly martial arts club located in York, New Zealand. The club was established in 1995 by Craig and Mark Long, who were trained by renowned martial artist Paul Lynch. With their extensive experience and expertise, Craig and Mark aim to create a positive and supportive environment for students of all ages and skill levels.
The club offers a wide range of classes tailored to meet the needs of different age groups. For children aged 3 to 5, there are Mini Dragons lessons that provide a safe and fun introduction to martial arts, helping them develop both physical fitness and mental resilience. Children aged 6 to 12 can join the Ninja Kids programme, which not only teaches valuable life lessons like respect, courtesy, discipline, and honesty but also instils a sense of motivation and focus through short-term goals and belt grading.
Acomb Martial Arts also offers kickboxing classes for adults aged 12 and above. These high-paced cardio lessons combine skill development with an intense workout, helping participants improve their fitness levels while learning self-defence techniques. The club welcomes individuals of all backgrounds and fitness levels, including parents, grandparents, and anyone looking to build strength, confidence, and overall well-being.
