At Zen Martial Arts, we prioritise the well-being and development of our students. We aim to instil valuable life skills such as discipline, respect, coordination, and balance in all our students. We have a dedicated team of instructors who are passionate about martial arts and are committed to helping you achieve your goals.

Sensei Patrick Perry, also known as Sensei by the students, is the founder and head instructor at Zen Martial Arts. With 10 years of experience on the kickboxing circuit and numerous victories in championships across the UK, Sensei Perry brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the academy. He holds a 5th Dan Black Belt in Kickboxing and has a degree in Lau Gar Kung Fu. Sensei Perry teaches full-time at the gym and is dedicated to providing high-quality martial arts instruction to all students.

We regularly celebrate the achievements of our students through awards. We have monthly awards such as “Student of the Month” and yearly awards including “Student of the Year,” “Best Attendance,” and “Best Fighter. ” These awards not only recognise the efforts and progress of our students but also serve to boost their confidence and motivation.

In addition to training, we organise trips to tournaments throughout the year, provided the students are ready and willing to participate. We want to ensure their readiness and avoid putting them in situations that may knock their confidence. We also host an annual Christmas party for the children as a treat and show of appreciation for their hard work.
