The Leicester Martial Arts Academy is CLOSED until further notice

 

 

Please read a little about what we do.

The Martial Science Program at LMA teaches the art of self-defense. The program will consist of hand techniques and feet techniques. When beginning the program the student will learn basic stances, punches, kicks, and blocks. We will work on improving balance, muscle control, eye-body co-ordination, timing, speed, and power.

** All techniques are placed into practical application **

Fitness and Overall Health:
Karate training improves flexibility, strength, coordination, and
endurance of an individual. Karate’s punches, thrust, kicks, blocks,
sweeps and throws tones the whole body in an explosive and dynamic
workout.

Stress Reduction: In
addition to the stress reducing benefits of any physical activity,
The Martial Arts also improves concentration and awareness of mental attitudes
that can cause stress.

Self-Confidence: While all
physical activities improves feelings of well-being, Sekkinsen Goshin Jitsu places special emphasis on building character, and focuses
on increasing self-confidence, awareness, and perseverance through
repetitive physical and mental exercises.

Self-Defense: Sekkinsen Goshin Jitsu is a great way to learn basic self-defense because it focuses
on actual defense skills rather than sport oriented techniques that
are found to be impractical and inefficient in actual combative
situations.
