I have found GMA to be a great club for beginners like myself. They don't expect you to learn any faster than your own pace allows, the training team are very understanding to each pupils needs. I have an awful memory and am constantly forgetting how to transition to different stances, they tell me to take my time and don't rush, it will come with time. I would really recommend this club to anyone willing to learn an applicated form of self defence. All the other students have made me feel ve...
