If you ask Emma's students what makes her special, they'll tell you it's about so much more than kickboxing. They describe a coach who is fun, knowledgeable, encouraging, and full of infectious energy. She has a unique ability to make every woman feel welcome, whether it's their very first class or they've been training for years.

They say...

"No matter how you're feeling when you arrive, you always leave feeling better."

"She balances a whole lot of fun and laughter with working hard and learning new skills."

"Her knowledge of kickboxing is excellent and she passes it on to everyone."

"She makes it okay to try hard and make mistakes."

"I always leave smiling, sweaty, and feeling stronger."

"She's funny, slightly mad in the best possible way, and endlessly upbeat."

"It's impossible to be anything other than happy around her."

Emma's students love the atmosphere she creates. They describe classes filled with laughter, female solidarity, zero judgement, and plenty of hard work. They know they'll be challenged, supported, and encouraged every step of the way, all while having a brilliant time.

More than anything, they say Emma genuinely cares. She takes the time to get to know every member of the class, shares her wealth of kickboxing knowledge with enthusiasm, and makes everyone feel capable of achieving more than they thought possible.

As one student summed it up perfectly:

"It's Emma really. She's just ace."

"She makes everyone feel like they belong." That's the phrase that comes up again and again when Melissa's students describe her coaching.

Students call her "supportive," "empowering," "energetic," "attentive," "uplifting," "inspirational," and even "the absolute queen."

They say:

"Melissa makes you feel like you can do it, even if you don't think you can yourself."

"She always believed in me, even when I didn't fully believe in myself."

"She knows when to push, when to encourage, and when to tell me to back off myself."

"She makes you feel like you're getting one-to-one support, even in a room full of people."

"No matter your age, ability or experience, she finds a way to make kickboxing work for you."

"Every week I leave feeling stronger, more confident, and proud of what I've achieved."

"She somehow manages to push us hard while making every class fun."

"I've never stuck with an exercise class before. I keep coming back because of Mel."

Students talk about more than just kickboxing. They describe a coach who creates "a welcoming and inclusive environment," "a safe space," and "an amazing community of supportive women who cheer each other on." They love that "every class is different," that they are "always learning," and that they leave "physically and mentally better than when they walked in."

Perhaps the strongest endorsement comes from the words repeated throughout the testimonials:

"We're so lucky to have her."

"Melissa is priceless."

"She has changed my mindset from 'maybe I can' to 'when I achieve it.'"

For her students, Melissa isn't just a kickboxing coach. She's someone who helps them discover strength, confidence, friendships, and belief in themselves, one class at a time.

Ask anyone who trains with Abby who she is, and you'll never get the same answer twice.
You'll hear things like...

"She's hilarious."

"She makes you feel like you can do anything."

"She's absolutely bonkers... in the best possible way."

"She'll push you to your limits."

Because that's Abby.
Her classes are known for "banging tunes," "catchy combos," dancing, games and the infamous "cheeky burpees." Somehow, she has mastered the art of making people work harder than they ever imagined while making them laugh all the way through.

"Abby makes the class so much fun you don't even realise she has you doing burpees!"

"I've never laughed so much but also trained harder in my life."

Behind the fun is a coach who genuinely cares.

"She knows exactly when to push you and when to let you just punch it out."

"She always picks up on the little things that sharpen your technique."

"She believed in me every step of the way."

"She always has time for every lady there."

Whether you're a complete beginner or working towards your next belt, Abby makes every challenge feel achievable.
Her students speak just as much about how she makes them feel as they do about the training.

"She creates such a safe space where we can just be ourselves."

"My confidence has grown massively because of Abby."

"I always leave feeling incredible."

"She's helped improve both my mental and physical health."

Many admit they arrive with no motivation but always leave smiling.

"Even when I don't feel like going, I know I'll leave feeling so much better."

She's caring enough to make everyone feel seen, determined enough to help them grow, and energetic enough to make every class unforgettable.

Her students will tell you she isn't just teaching kickboxing.
She's building confidence, creating friendships and helping women discover just how strong they're capable of becoming.

"She's so warm and welcoming."

"She makes training fun."

"She never makes me feel silly, even when I get things wrong."

From the moment you walk through the door, Kyra creates an environment where everyone belongs. Whether it's your very first class or you've been training for years, she meets you where you are and helps you grow at your own pace.

"She's inclusive of all abilities."

"She lets you set your own pace."

"She always gives helpful tips and still finds time to help each of us improve our skills."

But Kyra offers far more than great coaching. Her students describe the community she's built as a place where women can be completely themselves.

"She creates a space where I can be me, unfiltered."

"She is unapologetically herself, and that creates the perfect environment to grow and have fun."

"The community she's created is a fantastically crazy sisterhood where we punch, kick, bob, weave, dance, laugh and sometimes forget what we're supposed to be doing!"

There's plenty of laughter, dancing and fun, but there's also purpose behind every class.

"The vibe is full of love and laughter, but the focus on progression and passion for kickboxing is kick-ass."

Her students know they're supported both inside and outside the gym.

"Kyra cares that every single lady gets something from the class."

"She's extremely supportive and always checks in if you've had a tough time."

"Empowering is one word for Kyra."

For many, class nights have become more than just a kickboxing class.

"I keep coming back because she makes every session fun, rewarding and full of encouragement."

"The ladies she brings together make you feel so welcome."

Ask her students what keeps them coming back, and the answer is simple. Kyra isn't just building stronger kickboxers. She's building confidence, creating connection and leading a sisterhood where every woman is welcomed, supported and encouraged to become the very best version of herself.

Some final words from Kyra - life is crazy, so many people expect so much from you, give yourself an hour a week to just be you and think about nothing else than hitting the pads in front of you!

"Fun, supportive and always encouraging." That's the phrase that comes up again and again when Ellie's students describe her coaching.

Students call her "supportive," "collaborative," "approachable," "motivating," and someone who always knows exactly "when to support me and when to push me."

They say:

"I love Ellie's classes as they are fun."

"She makes sure we all have clear instructions and re-demonstrates a kick or punch when needed."

"She's always willing to help."

"She always makes sure we know what we're doing and corrects our technique."

"She ensures a supportive and collaborative environment."

"Ellie knows exactly when to support me and when to push me."

"I always look forward to coming to classes."

Students talk about much more than learning combinations and earning belts. They describe a coach who has helped them grow in confidence, improve their physical health, make new friends, and even navigate difficult times. One member shared that, over five years, Ellie has taught her "not just kickboxing," while another said, "Ellie has brought me through some difficult times, she listens, which is invaluable."

They love that her classes are fun, welcoming and motivating, with clear coaching, plenty of encouragement, and a community that keeps them coming back week after week. Whether it's someone's very first class or they're working towards their next belt, Ellie creates an environment where everyone feels supported to learn and improve.

Perhaps the strongest endorsement comes from the reason so many women give for returning:

"I keep coming back because of the support from Ellie and how I feel afterwards."

For her students, Ellie isn't just a kickboxing coach. She's someone who helps women build confidence, celebrate progress, find genuine friendships, and discover they're capable of far more than they ever imagined.

Ask Natalie’s students what makes her such a brilliant coach, and they'll tell you it's the quiet confidence behind everything she does.

"She puts everything into context, and suddenly you understand exactly why you're doing it."

"She knows every student and exactly what they need to work on."

"I wouldn't have got through my grading without her support."

"She talked me through it when I lost the rhythm and never let me give up."

"She's quiet and humble but fierce and awesome all at the same time."

Natalie's students love that every class is different. They describe sessions that are fun, varied, challenging and full of encouragement. Whether you're walking into your very first class or preparing for your next grading, they know they'll leave having learned something new.

As one student put it perfectly:

"Natalie is Elite through and through. Her dedication and passion for kickboxing shine through in everything she does."

Some final words from Nat - Life is too short. Start saying yes to things that excite you- even if they seem a little scary!

Ask Maddy's students what keeps them coming back, and one word comes up again and again: support.

They describe a coach who is caring, encouraging, welcoming, and genuinely invested in helping every woman feel comfortable from the moment she walks through the door.

They say...

"I love coming to class with Maddy."

"She is really supportive."

"I always leave class glad that I showed up."

"She genuinely cares."

"She has helped me build confidence."

Whether someone is trying kickboxing for the first time or returning after a break, Maddy focuses on helping each person feel supported, capable, and proud of their effort. Her calm, approachable style helps women relax, enjoy the process, and discover confidence they didn't realise they had.

More than anything, students say Maddy creates a class where people want to keep coming back, not just because they're getting fitter and stronger, but because they feel valued, encouraged, and part of a welcoming community.

"I always leave class glad that I showed up."

For Maddy, kickboxing is about more than just training. It's about helping women feel stronger, more confident, and supported every step of the way.

From the moment the class begins, Zoe creates an environment that's energetic, engaging and full of fun. Every session is designed to keep children active, learning and smiling, while developing real kickboxing skills along the way.

Parents often tell us their children can't wait for Monday evenings. They look forward to seeing their friends, learning something new, and burning off plenty of energy in a positive and supportive environment.

Zoe has a fantastic ability to balance fun with structure. Her classes are packed with games, challenges and exciting drills, but beneath all the laughter, children are developing coordination, confidence, discipline and respect.

She understands that every child learns differently and works hard to make sure everyone feels included, encouraged and successful, whether they're trying kickboxing for the very first time or progressing through their next grading.

More than anything, Zoe creates a place where children feel safe to challenge themselves, celebrate their achievements and grow in confidence week after week.

Parents love seeing the excitement their children have for kickboxing, and the children love being part of a class where they can learn new skills, make friends and have fun.

For many of our juniors, kickboxing isn't just another after-school activity.

It's the highlight of their week.

The random dance breaks. The way she somehow remembers the little details about everyone and always takes the time to check in.

More than anything, they say Clare helps them believe in themselves. She celebrates every success, helps them through the difficult moments, and creates a space where women feel safe to grow in confidence, fitness and skill.
