Just had my 1st trial class. Must say, movies make it look so easy. It was a complete body workout. Leo, the kickboxing instructor was amazing. Gave me personal attention as it was my 1st class, while keeping an eye on everyone. I came back bruised but absolutely loved it. Highly recommended.

I've been doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Hurstvile Martial Arts for almost two years and I love it. It has been a great way to learn self-defence, let off steam, get a great workout and have fun at the same time. I really enjoy the instructors and how they change things up so there is never a dull moment. I highly recommend Hurstvile Martial Arts!
