Mrs Wiseman has to say about the Academy
I am Jaydon's Mum and I'm really happy about the classes
he is involved in. Every time he attends he really enjoys
the class and he has got a lot more confidence since he has
attended.
I'm also really happy with his progress and I know he can
go along way if he stays here at the Black belt Academy. I've
always wanted him to get involved in a sport but I've found
it difficult as he has got asthma, but he really enjoyed here.
I also want to say since he has met his Master he has been
a lot better with discipline at home and I would like to thank
him for being such a good teacher for my son.Thanks for every
thing you are doing to help my son full fill his ambition.

Holy Cunneen
Joel has built a lot of confidence since he joined kickboxing
in may 2004, he has built up a lot of muscle. Joel was bullied
till he started kickboxing.
Sam Jones
Black Belt Academy are words I can say with pride. I used
to get bullied frequently at school but when I turned to Black
Belt Academy they showed me how to deal with such problems.
They have also done wonders for my confidence. I try things
and give them a go. The techniques they teach I like very
and they teach them brilliantly, they make sure that you can
go to other people and say ‘I can do that’.
There is one major thing that they have taught me and that
is ‘You can do anything if you put your mind to it’
Jack Ashcroft
Milo continues to enjoy his kickboxing sessions and remains
continued to achieving his black belt. He particularly enjoys
the weapons classes, learning the different routines.
Janet Waters
Since joining the black belt academy my partner Darren Collingwood
and children Megan and Jake have grown in confidence and as
well as keeping them healthy they enjoy doing it as a family.
K. G. Birtles
My flexibility has come. The kicking drills are fun and learning
to “Axe kick” has improved my confidence in sparring.
As well as a good way to keep fit lessons are a good place
to socialise and meet interesting people.

My son, Lewis Musgrave, commenced Black Belt Training at
age of 9. Now 13, he has successfully achieved his Black Belt,
with a grade A.
Lewis is a wonderful child. He is active, energetic and full
of fun. At school, he had problems with reading and writing
and has since been assessed as Dyslexic. Needless to say,
falling behind his peers in this area knocked his confidence
a lot. Lewis needed something in his life that he could enjoy,
and that would also make him feel better about himself.
This was the main reason why he joined Kickboxing, and within
the first 6 months, it was noted that his ability in this
area was outstanding. He was focused, started to feel good
about himself, and shown, at his then age 10, a great deal
of commitment to the sport. I recall him getting upset on
the nights that he did not have any training. We then decided
Lewis should join the Black Belt Members Club.
Since this time, Lewis has gone from strength to strength.
He has entered competitions, and even fought on four occasion
at Master Edwards ‘Black Tie’ Events, in front
of crowds of people. His confidence is improving all the time,
and so is his trophy and medals collection. And the discipline
and focus he trains so hard to achieve has even assisted his
performance in school.
The support that Master Edwards and Miss Gott have offered
Lewis over the past 3 years has been magnificent. Not only
have they trained him to be a ‘Kickboxer’, they
have also assisted Lewis in the development of life skills,
and most importantly, they have been friends to him and myself.
He absolutely loved gaining his Black Belt. Everybody cheered
for him on the day, and he couldn't’t stop smiling.
As his Mum, it was a very proud and tearful moment, one of
his first great achievements in his life. I have no doubt
that he will go on to achieve even more. He is currently training
for his second Dan, which will take 2 years. I have no doubt
that this will encourage him to grow in further confidence
though his teenage years.

My name is Darren Collingwood I am 32 and have been at the
Edwards Black Belt Academy now for a year, along with two
of my children Megan 11and Jake 8, initially I intended for
them to take classes.
I wanted them to gain fitness learn self defence but the main
reason was to increase their self confidence as they are quite
shy.
I saw how much they enjoyed their classes and decided to join
as well, I liked playing football at the time and was already
quite an athletic person I thought this would be more challenging,
and I was right, plus it is a lot more rewarding than getting
up early every Sunday morning only to loose another game due
to lack of team effort.
We are all pleased when grading comes around, so we need to
put in the effort and focus
Darren Collingwood
I started kickboxing because I wanted to improve my fitness
and learn a new skill. Within a few weeks I found my fitness
and flexibility had dramatically improved. But the thing I
wasn’t anticipating was how much I enjoy it (exercise
has always been a done, but it isn’t anymore!)
Emily
Never trying any martial arts before I was some what (apprehensive)
when approached in me steel to come along.
However, I have been very pleasantly surprised. The wirier
is excellent and everyone is very friendly.
I hope in the next couple of years to become much fitter and
accomplished.
Alison Cooper
I have improved my self confidence by a long way because now
I feel a lot more comfortable with people I have just met.
I have also improved my flexibility because now I can almost
do the splits because when I came I could hardly do them at
all.
