I have never liked exercising and never stuck at it. One of the best decisions I’ve ever made was giving this a go and I have stuck at it and most importantly, I actually love it! The whole team are all brilliant and very welcoming. The classes are fun and challenging. I feel fitter and more confident. I can’t recommend this highly enough! Everyone can and should do it.

What an amazing martial arts school! I honestly don’t know where to begin with my praise. From the moment I first contacted them they showed a lot of interest in getting to know my daughter and what makes her tick, she was the absolute focus of their attention, not just trying to sign me up. Attending her first class she was uncharacteristically shy and quiet but Sam the head trainer spent that class buddying up with her to make her feel welcome, the effort and time the whole team at Acomb put in to make my daughter feel special really was impressive. They have continued to make the same level of effort and give all the kids a lot of attention and a lot of praise when things go well. I can’t recommend them highly enough and I would implore anybody looking at martial arts for their children to contact X martial arts and you’ll be just as happy and impressed as I am. My daughter absolutely loves it there and has asked if she can go every single day she loves it that much!! Sam and the team are an absolute credit to the company.

After my 10yr old daughter had been struggling with confidence we came across X Martial Arts School and got in touch. We were told all about their positive start programme and it matched everything we wanted our daughter to get out of participating in classes. We were so impressed with the programme we enrolled our 8yr old daughter on it too. They both started in February and fell in love with it. The 1-2-1 tuition and FB live classes provided over lockdown were simply amazing and kept both my girls focused and raring to get back to classes. The change in both their attitudes has been positive and this continues to only benefit other aspects of their lives. My eldest has just started at secondary school and she feels confident, healthy, happy and I do believe that the XMA classes have definitely contributed to this as she feels so much better about herself and what she is capable of both physically and mentally. I have been so inspired by their abilities that myself and my husband have also joined. I had 2 serious emergency back surgeries last year and have struggled with any strenuous physical activity since but I now feel ready to do something and while ive only been attending for 2 weeks yet I feel fully supported by the instructor who offers a different exercise if I struggle with the one set. Their is also a real community in class and when I struggled with one of the combinations the other members around me didn't hesitate to offer advice on the best way to do it, this is instilled in every member attending and I am so glad to be part of this Martial Arts School. I cannot recommend X Martial Arts School enough.

Fantastic martial arts school. My son has classes for a bit over 2 years and I can clearly see how much it helps to improve his self confidence, discipline and respectful attention for other people. He is much physically stronger now too. I love the way of teaching, wish to do class by my own but currently I’m more concentrated on kids. Can’t wait when my youngest daughter can join the classes in her 3yo. Thank you guys for your effort, professionalism and love to our kids xx Daria

We started our Martial Arts journey 7 years ago. Over the years, I have done , some form of training, in one way or another. we enrolled our Son 1st and before we knew it, we were training as a family. All the Instructors are very professional and are full of knowledge and encouragement and the members are all really friendly too. Going back to my personal training, over the years, I have never been in an Environment like X MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOLS. The school is always tidy and clean, well mannered and full of respect, which is hard to find in this sort of environment ( Gyms ) . From Instructors - Staff and from members, it’s a very welcoming environment and happy place to keep fit, make friends & even go on to Compete in competitions, you are always supported and encouraged, in what ever training you wish to do. After 7 years, we still enjoy Martial Arts and we are still learning new skills and developing as individuals. I, we, can’t recommend X MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOLS enough. 🌟🌟🥋🌟🌟

X Martial Arts is a tremendous school with a dedicated team of staff and instructors. Whether face to face instruction or virtual classes, they do all they can to engage with members and help them progress, stay fit and be part of a wider circle of friends. As a family of four, we have attended the school for a number of years, we have seen it grow and expand whilst still maintaining the personal touch that makes this school special. I would highly recommend X Martial Arts School to anyone because everyone is made to feel welcome.

I’ve been going to the school for over 3 years now and am part of the ladies xfit class, and I absolutely love it... the workouts are amazing; each one different from the last and you feel so good after each class. The staff are great, very friendly respectful and professional and I’ve never felt shy or out of place there. They give you praise constantly and build your confidence to try things that were maybe out of your comfort zone before. I’ve also made lots of new friends that have actually become like family now. Would highly recommend XMA to absolutely everybody!

Such a fantastic martial arts school/family to be part of. The instructors are world class martial artists but more than that they are super lovely people who are amazing with all the children as well as the adults. X Martial Arts schools help to develop mental fitness as well as physical fitness by increasing confidence, discipline and friendships with so much support given. Enrolling them in X Martial Arts school is one of the best decisions I’ve made for my kids.

I have been attending classes here for two years now, progressing from the Ladies only to the Teens and adult classes moving up the belts, improving my fitness levels and confidence. The instructors are excellent clearly explaining what is required and helping with technique, no class is ever the same either so you wont get bored easily! There is such a friendly and supportive XMA team which I'm pleased to be a part of! Love it :)

V. C.

XMA has a relaxing and friendly atmosphere. The instructors are very professional and great with the kids and those with additional needs. They have been great at adapting the way they teach to make sure we can still enjoy the sessions from home, which have really helped us all to keep motivated. Thanks to you all x

We have been taking my boys since September and they love it. What a fantastic approach they have and they’ve been so flexible during lockdown. The classes have been accessible throughout, with such a positive attitude to online teaching. My boys have already gained confidence and skill and they’re always excited to attend their next class... virtually or in the studio. Keep on doing what you’re doing, we feel lucky to be part of the xmarial arts community.

The teachers and the venue at this school are brilliant. My son has been training at XMA for 2 years - he's always excited to attend, and the positive values that they encourage are really helping him not only with his training but also with his attitude to school. Big thanks to our amazing coach, Mr Watkinson and the always happy and helpful Carla who does a great job keeping us organised. We love you guys!

I joined Ladies Xfit in January as a way to lose some weight and find some exercise I enjoyed. The initial layout for a 6 weeks course was motivation to get my monies worth and go 3 times a week for a good kick start. Im not a super gym bunny, have metal pins in my ankle and was a little nervous that I may not of been able to do some of the exercises. I need not of worried as everyone was welcoming and reassuring putting you at ease. If there is anything you cant quite do or isnt possible you dont feel pressured you are encouraged to do what you can. 8 month on I LOVE it. I usually do 3 classes a week. They are so varied and short burdt of routines that you keep focused and dont lose motivation. I am now a member and have even begun belt testing. That's something I definitely wasn't doing when I signed up but I have the bug! I love the classes, the exercises and skills. All delivered by a fabulous team who work super hard as standard but have bent over backwards to accommodate everyone during this current pandemic! Cannot recommend enough! Come and give it a go!

XMA is a great school and very welcoming. I am 29 and started in the middle of last year as a complete beginner and I love it. The instructors are brilliant and help you feel confident and motivated. XMA have done a great job during the pandemic to keep classes going over Zoom. Highly recommend!

Tried numerous fitness classes and facilities over the years but x-martial arts doesn’t disappoint whatsoever. No class is ever the same, instructors are WORLD CLASS experts which comes from experience and not just a qualification. I’m 41yrs old and my daughter is 14 and we are both members so we can train together, build confidence and gain life long skills. Classes to suit all capabilities and Couldn’t recommend them enough xxx

X Martial Arts Schools has supported us as a family with fitness, but also with confidence and drive. The instructors are so polite, supportive and professional and show great patience with the younger children. A club we are proud to be part of..

My eldest son has been attending since January 2020, we were looking around for a ‘after school activity’ and something to distract him from his console! We enquired about Martial arts and also spoke to the team about the benefits and they ticked all the boxes straight away! We were offered a free trail, which is good because it’s hard to know if he would like it with us not knowing anyone attending the school ! He instantly fell in love and noticing confidence straight away was something huge for my son as this is something we wanted to work on. Since returning after lockdown he’s come on leaps and bounds not only at martial arts but at home and school too! His teacher has noticed a huge difference in his personality and his drive to want to join in with other activities and I have no one else to thank other then his teachers at martial arts ! They are always supporting him and encouraging him to be able achieve things I didn’t believe a 7 year old could. So thank you to every single one of you ! You are the real hero’s!

My 6 year old has been coming since he was (just turned) 3. He spent 6 weeks crying on the side line, flinching when the big kids ran past and refused to join in. We both wanted to give up. He now has his little sister joining him, he does a warm up for me before my ladies X Fit class and looks forward to every single class. It makes me so proud seeing how much he has grown in confidence and developed his skills. This is all thanks to the brilliant and very patient martial arts teachers who push him to be his very best whilst being engaging, tolerant and making sure they always have loads of fun. Thank you everyone but especially Mr Watkinson & Mr Burks.

X Martial Arts is a huge part of both my life and my kids’. They have grown in confidence and discipline as well as learning the techniques. We have made friends for life. The team work so hard in delivering a professional and personal experience for everyone. Highly recommended

Fantastic teens & adults classes inclusive to all ages and all abilities. The staff are enthusiastic and dedicated to everyone's progress and the class times are flexible throughout the week. Would highly recommend for anyone who is looking to improve their fitness and learn a new skill.

Best Kickboxing classes in York. I joined XmartialArts in January and it was definitely one of the best things I 've ever done. There's always variety between classes every week and the instructors are amazing! Would highly reccommend to anyone, whos looking for something new and fun!!!

S. C.

I started with XMA originally to get for with Ladies only, but then switched to the full kickboxing classes. I absolutely love them, the instructiors and all the staff are so friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to start their martial arts journey

Its times like these when businesses need to be adaptable, show initiative and be customer focused. X Martial Arts have been all of the above and more! Their app has been updated to ensure classes can be booked both remotely when in lockdowns and for in person when we're able to train at the dojos. Ensuring members are kept safe with limited numbers of people on site. Throughout everything 2020 had to throw as us, X Martial Arts were always there ensuring we could all still train to not only help fitness levels but also endorphin levels! The staff have been supportive, innovative in their management of the varying restrictions over the last almost 12 months and provided all with a platform to continue to do what they love. I'm proud to be a member of XMA

I did the ladies only classes and found it a really welcoming place and comfortable environment for doing martial arts. It's a really fun way to get fit and feel more confident.

My boys have been coming here since they were both three years old. They get so much from their training, learning about dedication, resilience, working hard, manners and respect. Fantastic instructors and a really warm welcoming environment.

XMA has been absolutely fantastic for my 8 year old. He has been attending for the past 2 years. He loves the structure, instructors and programme. XMA are always professional and delivering everthing to a high standard (this was demonstrated even more so in lockdown). Would highly recommend.
