Having spent time at different schools and clubs, I can guarantee you won't find a place that focuses more on the success of its students.Neil Kelly is the most knowledgable man about his art-that I have ever met; he teaches with a passion, understanding and love for the sport that Noone can match.His support team in Sean and Ailbhe are some of the friendliest people you will meet and the schools success is a testament to the environment they have built! Whether you want to Win,Improve or just Learn, USKA is the only place to be!

Over the past 4 years I've been to many different gyms, for different disciplines i.e. karate, semi contact, boxing, kickboxing. Nowhere comes close to this place. In my opinion it's the best gym in the country for kickboxing. Run by Neil Kelly and Sean Quinn, both know the sport inside out and manage to bring out the very best in everyone. Very friendly place too, mixed with men, women and children of all ages.

My son has been training at USKA with Neil Kelly in his little ninja's group for a year now. It is fun filled sessions aimed at keeping young ones interested in the sport through fun and enjoyment. My son looks forward to each session and its a joy to see him happy and enjoying himself at the gym with the other little ninja's.

Uska is the definatly the place to be.
I joined the club nearly a year ago and it has been in the several years I have been kickboxing the best year ever.
Neil Kelly is an amazing coach as he can relate to everybodys needs& manages to bring out the best in everyone, he has helped me mentally and physically over the year making me realise why I love kickboxing so much. The uska family are so supportive & welcoming, there is such a live atmosphere with in the club& everyone is always on a high as we've all got the ''uska bug''. Uska is the place to be.
The place to train the best in the country probably the best in the world.

I have trained at other kickboxing gyms in the area and the noticeable difference with this gym is the passion the instructors have. Whether you are a novice or an expert, a new starter or a long time member, in every lesson you are instructed. You learn something in every class you attend. Neil Kelly teaches not only how to fight in technique but the science behind it, not just the how's but the why's, so you become not just a strong and fast fighter but a clever fighter. Shaun has so much experience and knowledge to share with his students combined with his passion you are guaranteed a workout that will stretch and interest you no matter what your abilities. And both instructors put their students first, taking time to develop them, working to individuals strengths and overcoming their weaknesses. This is a gym that has something for everyone. Technical classes, fitness classes, fighters classes, children's classes. The students are very friendly, the atmosphere is buzzing and there is plenty of equipment available. There really is no better gym to be in.

Two very good coaches which a wide horizon of knowledge on kickboxing. I always learn something new everyday I go there. Plus, really good facilities. Everyone that goes there is kind and there is a good community. Wouldn't even consider going to a different club.

Been to many kickboxing clubs over the years and none come close to the standards and expertise from the club & instructor Neil Kelly, unlike so many kickboxing clubs that are now up and coming with no real kickboxing background.
It's fun, helps you to keep active, you learn lot's of important techniques for self defence. There is also a friendly environment and I enjoy learning new things every day with the specialist equipment which is provided.
