What mental benefits will I get from training?
You will develop a much more positive attitude, which will cross over into all aspects of your life. It will reduce your stress levels and improve your concentration and relaxation periods. Increased Self Confidence and Self Discipline will help you to achieve your personal goals and also give you the peace of mind from knowing that you can adequately protect yourself and your family if the need arises.

Will there be other beginners in my class?
SMAF are always recruiting new beginners and so you'll always have people of the same level around you. This will help build team spirit as you'll constantly encourage & motivate each other to progress further.

Will myself or my children become overly aggressive from training?
Children especially, are taught the importance of Self Control. Martial Arts are defensive skills rather than aggressive behaviour. Agression is channeled into assertiveness to increase self esteem, self discipline and also to build character and social awareness.

Is training safe?
All classes are strictly monitored to ensure complete safety for everyone. All exercises and techniques are taught and executed to very high standards ensuring full safety for everyone. Students interested in sparring are required to wear the full protective equipment and are closely supervised. The actual chance of injury is very small.

How long will it take to become 'good'?
As with any sport or new skill, the time taken to become proficient varies with each individual depending on the effort and time they put in. With regular training you should be amazed within a few months as to how quickly and how much you start to improve. Regular gradings and a coloured belt system will monitor your progress. Your ultimate goal of course is to attain the coveted Blackbelt - this should take approximately 3 to 5 years depending on your level of effort, desire and commitment.
