    Learn Practical Skills Through Self Defence Classes for Kids

    Self defence is not only about physical techniques. For children, it can also be about becoming more aware, staying calm and knowing how to respond when something does not feel right. Our self defence classes for kids involve age-appropriate activities that encourage children to become more aware of their movement and surroundings. Our kids martial arts classes can include activities that help children work on coordination and body control, balance and movement, strength and fitness, focus and concentration, confidence when learning new skills, and discipline and positive training habits. The focus is on learning useful skills while making exercise enjoyable. Our experienced trainers introduce young participants to suitable exercises while keeping sessions engaging and approachable.

  • Confidence

    Build Skills, Confidence and Healthy Habits

    Children often gain more from martial arts training than just learning physical movements. Regular participation can give them opportunities to challenge themselves, work towards goals and become more comfortable trying something new. Our martial arts classes for kids encourage young members to try new activities without being afraid of mistakes, listen and follow instructions during training, work on skills through regular practice, become more comfortable in a group environment, and stay active while learning something they enjoy. The focus is on creating a positive experience that helps children enjoy coming back to training, with encouragement and guidance throughout each session.

    Discover MMA for Kids in a Supportive Environment

    If your child enjoys being active, MMA for kids is an exciting way to introduce them to different forms of movement. Martial arts training sessions involve a mixture of fitness drills, movement patterns and martial arts-based exercises. At 747Fitness, your children learn new skills without feeling pressured to compete or keep up with someone else. Our kids MMA classes are also a great option for children who enjoy variety — instead of doing the same type of exercise every session, our trainers encourage them to work on different movements and skills. This constant practice helps them become more comfortable with training.

  • Community-Vibe

    Personal Attention from Experienced Trainers

    Our trainers take the time to understand each member and their goals. Children receive guidance throughout their sessions as they learn new movements, improve their technique and become more comfortable with training. Children get the support they need as they learn new MMA and self-defence skills.

At 747Fitness, we want young members to feel comfortable, enjoy their sessions and look forward to coming back. Our focus is on making training challenging, rewarding and enjoyable. Children can learn differently, which is why individual attention matters — our kids martial arts classes give children something to work towards with every session, developing confidence, discipline and resilience alongside their physical fitness.

I’ve been going to 747fitness and honestly, I love it! Kosta and Coach Ray and V are so friendly and supportive, and everyone there is really welcoming too. I used to feel very self-conscious and avoided anything fitness-related, but now I go almost 6 days a week. I’m really happy with the change I see in myself, both physically and mentally 😊

My daughter has been training with 747 both at their gym and through her soccer club. The care they show is absolutely incredible!
She has become stronger, more confident, more explosive on the pitch, and mentally resilient. Thanks you Kosta and Aidan!
100% recommended! I can’t imagine her training anywhere else

Kosta, Vedad and the team do an awesome job. They engage well with everyone and everyone feels welcomed. My 13yr old son has been coming for a few months and loves it, you can really see the improvement in his workouts and he is trying things he never would have otherwise like Yoga.

My son says “It’s a great place to go to for good vibes and a great workout, everyone there is so nice and welcoming and I always have a fun workout”

I can’t recommend 747 Fitness enough. Training here has completely changed my strength and consistency.

Kosta goes above and beyond — he doesn’t just coach you in the gym, he keeps you accountable outside of it too. He texts every morning to check how you’re feeling, which honestly keeps you committed and on track. That level of care makes a huge difference.

I was also dealing with groin soreness that just wouldn’t go away, and Kosta helped me work through it properly with the right exercises and adjustments. Since then, I’ve felt stronger, more mobile, and pain-free.

I’ve had a really good experience at 747 Fitness. Since starting, I’ve definitely noticed improvements in my strength and overall fitness. The sessions are tough, but that’s what makes them so effective, you really get pushed and it brings out your best.

The trainers are great. They’re supportive, approachable, and always encouraging, but they also know how to challenge you. It’s a really positive environment to train in, and you feel motivated every session.

747 Fitness isn’t just a place of working out, it’s a family environment. Whether you’re new or a returning person, you’re welcomed like you’ve been there for many years. The coaches are super friendly, helpful and most importantly passionate. I’ve never had or seen coaches that are genuinely interested in seeing you achieve what you aim to achieve, they push you every step of the way with amazing encouragement. I can say confidently that being at 747 fitness has not only helped me reach my goals physically but mentally it has help me grow in other areas. I would highly recommend going down and seeing for yourself what it’s like. Shoutout to Kosta for creating a space for everyone ❤️

If I could give 747 fitness 100 stars, I would without hesitation!

3 months in and this place has truly become my home away from home. From day one, the atmosphere has been welcoming, motivating and full of positive energy. I actually know Kosta from school and when I realised I needed help with my weightloss journey, I reached out and it was the best decision I have ever made. The support and encouragement I received right away meant so much to me.

The classes are amazing. They're challenging in the best way. Full of energy and designed to actually help you grow. You don't just show up and sweat, you show up with purpose. There's real focus on your goals, and the coaches are amazing. They're right there with you every step of the way. They push you, encourage you, check in on you and celebrate your wins like they're, their own. That kind of support is rare.

On top of that, having a diet plan ready and tailored to my goals makes the whole journey so much smoother. It takes the guess work out of everything and makes staying consistent so much easier. You're not left to figure things out alone. Kosta truly sets you up to succeed.

And the fact that it's kid friendly? That means everything. Being able to focus on myself while knowing my children are welcomed and comfortable takes away so much stress. It makes showing up possible, and consistency is everything.

747 fitness truly has everything you could ask for. Great classes, real guidance, accountability and an incredible atmosphere. I'm beyond grateful to be apart of 747 fitness. I look forward to being there and honestly, I'd do whatever it takes to keep coming back. It's more than just a gym. It's support, community and a place that makes me want to be better every single day.

I have held several gym memberships but I must say that I have never been a part of anything like this. This is not just a membership to some fitness club. It’s belonging, it’s run by a genuinely wonderful person who genuinely cares and challenges your fitness goals. It is aligned with a group of trainers that pay individual attention to your needs and personal goals. They celebrate with you they challenge you they continually encourage you. They are genuinely pleased to see you turn up at every session and every session is different. And the members - that’s another story they are simply wonderful people that build each other up. The success stories are remarkable the journeys associated with these remarkable individuals are astounding.
747 is not like any other gym. I love it. I have never worked harder and never felt better for it.

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

A children’s MMA session can include movement drills, fitness activities and basic martial arts exercises. The activities can vary from class to class, giving children a chance to learn different skills while staying active.

Absolutely. Many children start martial arts without knowing any techniques beforehand. A good first class should give them time to understand the activities, meet the trainer and become comfortable with the training environment.

Not every child is ready for contact-based training, and it should never be assumed that they are. Classes can focus on movement, technique, fitness and controlled drills rather than encouraging children to fight. Speak with the 747Fitness team about included activities and what is suitable for your child.

Self-defence training can help children feel more confident and aware of their surroundings. It should not encourage them to confront a bully physically. Children should also know when to walk away, seek help and tell a trusted adult.

Still have questions? We'd love to chat.
