Little Ninjas
REACH YOUR FULL POTENTIAL
Martial arts for Kids Designed to help children thrive!
Getting the right activity for children can be challenging. Children need activities that build their health, fitness and coordination while enhancing their confidence, concentration and ability to interact comfortably in social settings.
Our Little Ninjas program is designed with these needs and more in mind. After the first few months on this program parents tell us they start to see their children thriving not just in Martial Arts class but also at home and at school.
The ability to make new friends, fit in with large and small peer groups and improved skills in paying attention and following instructions not only make them successful in Martial Arts but sees them shine in everyday life too.

Parenting through martial arts
Your child’s overall health & happiness is at the forefront of our mind. We work with parents to promote the values and skills that create success in life.
The tenets of our Martial Arts curriculum teach values of courage, commitment, self belief, hard work, discipline and respect for self and others.
We empower children to focus on positive thoughts, words, choices and behaviours.
Balancing discipline and respect with learning, fitness & fun
The Combat Academy teaches traditional martial arts in a modern group learning environment. Classes are engaging and fun, but always expect the best of students.
Our philosophy is to support every student in building the best version of themselves and fulfilling their incredible individual potential.
All our locations—Barnsley, Sunderland, Rotherham, Sleaford, Burton, Wath, Chesterfield and Clay Cross – share the same commitment to discipline, respect, and fun learning in our Little Ninjas program.

Martial Arts training develops physical coordination & control
Young children who learn martial arts find out quickly that each movement must be intentional.
They learn to control their bodies and be intentional about their actions.
Martial Arts Teaches Kids FOCUS & CONCENTRATION
Getting young kids to pay attention can feel like an impossible task. The structure of our martial arts classes shows kids the importance of focus and teaches them to develop concentration by teaching stillness, developing listening skills, supporting them to understand and follow instructions and helping them to overcome challenges, achieve tasks and recognising their success.
The focus they learn in Martial Arts is something they’ll take home – and into the classroom. That’s why kids who study martial arts tend to be good students, too.
Martial Arts helps children manage emotions and deal with frustration
Martial arts instruction requires students to identify, pursue & achieve goals. Young children can easily become frustrated when they don’t succeed at the first try, but studying martial arts helps them learn the power of persistence.
The physical activity in our classes also helps kids manage stress and anxiety by allowing them to burn it off in a safe and constructive way.
Martial Arts Teaches Kids Resilience, Humility & Respect
Losing is not anybody’s idea of fun, but we all need to learn how to accept a defeat gracefully and move on. We believe in the old adage that “winners have failed more times than losers have tried” and we teach students that losing is part of life. We support students to learn how to accept a defeat and extract the learning so that they may “fail forward” and continue their march to success.
We also promote humility in winning. It is our goal to train each student for success and to develop into young leaders where they might use that success to inspire and motivate others, becoming role models and always offering a helping hand to students who are lower on the ladder of the Martial Arts journey.
Even though martial arts is an individual sport, we cultivate an environment of supportive teamwork where students root for one another and pick each other up where needed. A rising tide raises all ships and our emphasis on community, leadership and support helps everyone succeed together no matter the stage of their development.

Our son Teddy, who is 7 years old, has absolutely flourished since joining. His confidence, discipline, fitness and kickboxing ability have improved beyond anything we could have imagined. Every week he looks forward to training, and watching him grow both as a kickboxer and as a young lad has been incredible.
A huge thank you to Gasan, Blaine, Guyvin and all of the instructors. The passion, patience and dedication they show to every child is second to none. They know exactly how to get the very best out of each student, making every session fun, challenging and rewarding. Teddy is flying under their guidance, and we’re so grateful for everything they do.
A special mention also has to go to Nikki, the centre manager. She is one of the friendliest, most welcoming people you’ll ever meet and will genuinely bend over backwards to help you and your family achieve your goals. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and she makes everyone feel like part of the Combat Academy family from day one.
What makes this place so special is the atmosphere. It’s supportive, encouraging and full of people who genuinely want to see each other succeed. It’s much more than a martial arts gym—it’s a community.
