MAC began in the Mid ’90s in local schools sports halls and over time developed to full-time academies, our first of which was opened in 1998. We quickly realised that dedicated buildings and well trained and accomplished team members made for a better student experience and allowed full- time staff to focus on continual professional learning as well as the opportunity to share our passion for martial arts with schools and local community groups. In fact today all of our instructor team started their own training in MAC. We’ve all walked the same path so we know how it feels to share that journey. We are proud of our students and achievements over more than 25 years, we’ve graduated many Black Belts, fighters at international and European level and shared our art and programs with thousands of our local community. Fitness confidence and self-defence remain our watchwords today.
