Private 1 to 1 Self Defence Training in your own home
- or a place of your choosing
If you’d like to benefit from personal martial arts instruction, I can come to you, wherever is most convenient. Train with me on your schedule and in the way that benefits you the most. No person is the same and you’ll gain greatly from a tailored self-defence training programme. This is your journey, I’m just here to help you achieve your goals.
Self-defence/martial arts: Why Train Privately?
Learning a martial art is more than movements and techniques. It’s confidence. It’s clarity. It’s the feeling that you can handle yourself, both physically and mentally should life become unpredictable.
For many people, private training simply works better. Some prefer to learn in a familiar environment. Others feel too shy or anxious to step into a busy class straight away. And plenty of students need flexibility that weekly sessions can’t provide.
That’s where private training shines and it’s where you can take advantage of the added benefits and enhanced progression that it can offer you.
It gives you space. It gives you time. And it gives you complete control over your journey. Whether you’re a total beginner, returning after time away, or looking to sharpen your skills, your sessions will be built around you, your goals, your ability and your comfort level.
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about individual capability. It’s about finding your pace, developing real-world readiness and stepping into each session with growing clarity and confidence.
It’s about becoming stronger, more confident, and more capable. One step at a time.

What You Can Expect with 1:1 Training
Private training is your opportunity to learn directly with a Master Instructor, no distractions, just respect, discretion and focus.
Enjoying total flexibility and complete personalisation. Here’s what you’ll get from working 1-to-1 with me:
Learn, Train and Develop in your Own Home
No need to travel. No need to arrange childcare. No need to adjust your schedule. I come to you — wherever you feel most comfortable.
Where We Train
I train with some private students in their living rooms, others in their garages, and some in local gym spaces — it’s entirely up to you. Think of your home, your garden, your workplace during a break, or even a local park. All you need is a little space and the willingness to begin. We can always switch up the venue as we go.

Who I Teach
Private self-defence and martial arts training is also different to a group or class setting in the sense that those are usually broken up and organised by age, ability and gender (or a mixture of). When I come to you, these more restrictive elements don’t apply.
I train and mentor a lot of students individually, but I also have ‘groups’ of private students that I regularly coach too, such as families (parents and children), siblings and even groups of friends who train privately together.
I’m very accommodating and whatever your requirements, it’s usually simple to iron out the details.
Tailored instruction
Every person learns differently. Your training plan is built around your pace, your strengths, and the areas you want to develop most. I’ll never ‘work’ you too hard and we’ll always stay with what what’s safe or comfortable for you.
I have decades of experience recognising when you’re ready to level up. You’re always free to pause, adjust, or choose the direction we take. I may be the Master Instructor, but you’re the Master of yourself.
Faster progress
With my full attention on you, your learning accelerates naturally. You’ll understand more, remember more, and grow more, session after session.
​Perfect for beginners and returning learners
Many students are nervous to start in a group setting — and that’s completely normal. Private training gives you the chance to build confidence from day one.
I also train seasoned martial artists from other disciplines in my specific system.
Less Pressure & Ultimate Flexibility
Private sessions allow you to focus, ask questions freely, and revisit techniques until they feel natural, which is essential for real-world readiness. Private instruction also gives you the space to slow down, refine movements, and build capability at a steady, comfortable pace.
Early mornings, afternoons, evenings — we’ll find what fits your lifestyle. Your sessions are booked around your availability and that’s it.
Your Personal Training Journey
Every session will help you become stronger, more confident, and more prepared for the real world. But this journey isn’t just practical, it’s mental too.
You’ll learn:
How to stay calm under pressure
How to react with clarity
To trust your instincts more
How to better handle common real-world situations (like pushes, breaking from a grip or managing confrontations)
How to walk with more confidence in life as well as ‘down the street’
How to wrestle back control in more worrisome situations
I’ll be there to support, guide and mentor you from wherever your starting point may be, step by step, technique by technique — until you feel proud of how far you’ve come.
And once you reach that point, we go again.
​
​Some of my private students simply want to know how to handle certain situations, others, embark on a full black-belt journey with me. For you, it can be anything you wish it to be, you just have to take that first step.
