I joined Marsden Martial Arts around 5 and a half years ago and it was the best decision iv ever made. When I first started I was heavily over weight and extremely anxious and depressed. So that first walk through the door was terrorfying, however I was greeted by a lovely smiling family who made me feel so welcome. I wasn't interested in grading and had given up on losing weight as I'd tried everything with very little maintainable success, I just felt something was missing from my life and used to love Martial arts growing up so thought I'd give it a go. 5 and a half years later and I'm preparing for my blackbelt grading, iv lost over 5 stone, iv made so many friends, I have fallen in love with jiu-jitsu, my anxiety and depression is so much more manageable now and my confidence has grown. I now teach classes at the academy and love sharing and gaining new knowledge and helping the kids. Something I never thought I would have the confidence to do and I have even completed a personal training course so I can advise students in other areas of fitness and basic nutrition. I now fill my life with a job I love, training which I love alongside my other hobbies and I'm a much happier person. I would recommend this to everyone regardless of size, age and fitness level as its helped me with every area of my life and I want everyone to feel this good.
