I have to say that hilarious one star review makes me think this place is a good no nonsense option. Good on the trainer for telling them to find another. Obviously a lot to learn.

In my late 20s, training in the adult classes and sparring has been great. Start off with a stretch, warmup, shadow and skipping, then partner drills and applying technique in light sparring or bag work then finish off with abs and general conditioning. Sessions feel structured and build on themselves well so you can definitely feel and see progress - more likely your training partners let you know ;) Sparring has a dedicated day which involves a similar start to the session and then several rounds of sparring against different partners of all skill levels from complete beginner to professional fighter. This is where for me, the bulk of the learning is done where I can see what works and what doesn't and apply things from the other classes in a more live situation. The great thing is, the same people will come to those sessions so that motivates you to keep training hard too and you see them do better and improve which in turn makes you want to do the same. I've been training on off for around 10 years and hadn't found a gym for about 5 years now after leaving Notts but I think I've found the place to be. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to get in shape and learn some self defense - you'll be holding your own after 6 months or so of solid training. Or anyone who wants to get involved in Muay Thai and perhaps get involved in competition which is my aim for the next few years.
