Reviews of Croydon Kali And Kickboxing Club

Byakko Shiro Tora means White Tiger of The West, an analogy for bringing Oriental Martial Arts to the Western World, in this case Southern England.

While the UFC is sweeping the world and MMA clubs are opening everywhere, and people are looking to Thailand for their kickboxing and Brazil for their Jujutsu, and everyone is looking for sports orientated cage fighting, there are less clubs open to teach the traditional Warrior battlefield arts.

How refreshing to find a club run by a high graded Sensei, teaching weapons and unarmed combat the way they were developed, with a contemporary modern application. Police officers and prison officers train alongside nightclub doormen, officer workers and medical personnel in a friendly, non aggressive environment where the deadliest martial arts methods are analysed and practiced with a rich vein of humour and a strong sense of fun.

Have a great workout, learn something, and have fun!

A high ranking Martial Arts Sensei with over 30 years of teaching experience in authentic Traditional Martial Arts, with a decade of Real world experience. Senior students include Police Officers, Door Supervisors and Prison Officers, as well as Security and Medial personnel.

Weapons training, that is REAL authentic weapons training and realistic weapons defence training.

Unarmed Combat, Effective Street Self Defence.

Grappling and ground fighting, and that is also on hard surfaces for real functional Street defence, not just rolling on mats.

Kickboxing training and sparring, learning to hit REALLY hard.

Come and see what REAL really feels like!

This school really does have a full training program, in all ranges and phases.

Weapons training includes stickfighting and knife fighting, with sword, staff and spear work for Seniors.

Weapons Defence training against attacks by club, stick, knife and real effective gun defence.

Unarmed Combat is mainly Kempo Jujutsu, a lethal Street fighting system, with a healthy dose of Traditional Karate and Wing Chun, as well as karate sparring, and Wing Chun Chi Sao training and sparring for the Seniors.

Groundfighting is just that, effective ground fighting and finishing methods, not just sport sparring on mats, this is trained on the hard wood floor and the grass.

Kickboxing includes training on boxing pads and Thai pads as well as Sparring in full gear at all ranges.
