My daughter loves the savate classes. I think she's getting fitter and faster. Morgan and Ollie are great teachers. I can't recommend it more if you're after an active hour, which cultivates listening, working in pairs, better personal performance.
I continue to thoroughly enjoy my canne de combat and occasional savate and kali training at CAMA, as I have done for the past eight years. The canne and savate instructors are top-notch martial artists, we trainees receive personalized instruction that is appropriate for our skills level and allows rapid development, and everybody at the club is welcoming and helpful. I have gone from clumsy to coordinated and lazy to training enthusiast whilst training at CAMA, and made some great friends too. I also appreciate how organized Ollie is in setting up and communicating training schedules.
I joined the academy about two months ago and I have really enjoyed the experience. Ollie is very knowledgeable and skilled, as is Morgan (instructors). It is a great learning environment with a good balance between the trainings being demanding and fun. It’s a great choice whether you are beginner or advanced, as you’ll have the unique opportunity to train with all levels, even world champions.
Amazing, unforgettable experience in martial arts. I learned a lot from my 6-month training here, including Kali stick, bare-hand techniques, and boxing. I had absolutely no experience and a really bad body coordination before joining, but it didn't matter thanks to Ollie and Morgan for their professional and patient instructions. I notice that some reviews mentioned being hit or unfairly treated, but this is NEVER possible in CAMA. We train in a friendly and collaborative manner, in a group of 5 to 10, and practice in pairs with either the teacher or other students - none of them will use violence orally or physically. The training also focuses more on techniques and body mechanics - there is no hard punch or kick at all. In summary, I highly recommend training at CAMA - you will master some skills, do some work out, make some friends, and feel the amazing aspects of martial arts through practice. You'll definitely enjoy your time here.
I've trained with CAMA for over 20 years - and have experience of a number of other martial arts clubs. This is the best I have trained with. It's sad that some have had bad experiences but I simply do not recognise what they are saying I'm afraid; I have learnt (and continue to learn) much from all the instructors and my training partners and would (and do) happily recommend this club to anybody with a genuine interest n martial arts.
