The martial arts classes we teach bring real changes to the lives of our students
Don't just listen to us - look at what our students say:
Valentina “my biggest struggle was thinking that I was never going to try something like TFW just because it seemed to be a worLd very far from myself...I guess the old “myself” now, But then obviously my excuses: I’ve got 2 kids, a job, house, homework, husband...where do I find the time to take care of my body, of my diet and my mind? I met new people and most of them are truly friends now, I’m more confident and got self esteem, I gave up smoking almost one year ago and simply because I could not sprinting as all my mates I wished I would have stopped before,I gained more muscle mass thanks to lifting weight constantly and changed most of my old eating habits.”
Sam “My training lacked consistency. I was regularly going to the gym but had very little direction on what I wanted to accomplish or why I was going, other than attempting to keep ‘in shape’’. At Can Do Martial Arts, more than anywhere else I have trained, there has always been one eye that is kept on progression. The persistence in training, ability to overcome obstacles and having an adaptable approach to my training and learning, have been competencies which I have transposed over into both my personal and business life. These have proven to be valuable lessons and are evidence that the rewards gained through training have gone beyond my initial expectations. I like to understand what I do and why I do it and as such I like to ask questions. I like to train with people who feel the same way. Whenever I have asked questions of the CDMA team they have always provided an informed answer. There is a reason to the training other than just working hard and I have not seen this understanding in other organisations. ”
Darran “I was gaining weight really fast and I had no energy all the time. I was out of breath doing simple things I took for granted before. I was unhappy with the way I looked so comfort ate even more. I have lost 4 stone since I joined TFW. I have made a lot of good friends and have received valuable advice that was really practical and easy to follow. I feel much fitter much better. I have regained my self confidence I have loads of energy now. I know my coaches always have time for me if I needed to talk to them. TFW has a family feel where everyone is free to work at there own pace and is fully supported by the coaches and other members. It really motivates you to keep going even when you think you can't. You want to keep going as you are invested in everyone else's tourney as well as your own. It isn't a place for poser's doing curls in the mirror or gym heads doing stupid weights. It is a place for real change in the most positive way. It changes the way you think and feel as well as your health and wellbeing.”
Sean “Some of the struggles I faced before I came to CDMA were a complete lack of motivation and drive”. I contacted CDMA because I fancied a change up in my training routine and to try some new experiences in the form of martial arts.
The results I've gained since training at CDMA are not only improved physical fitness but also better mental well being. In the past year or so I've taken a lot away from training at CDMA and am thoroughly grateful for it as well.
The things for me that separate CDMA from other gyms I've been involved with is the support from all the coaching team, they are all very friendly and focused on helping you improve. There are no egos involved which help you progress quicker and completely removes any fear of training at a DōJō.
Leanne “ After my initial chat with V I felt so empowered I realised that they really cared about me reaching my goals. I had already made changes to our family diet and as much as my husband was doing it with me this was for me and about me, I do matter and it was about time I realised that.
I remember I felt so nervous on my first session but very quickly them fears went away. Not only the coaches supporting you to get the exercise right but all the members it really is a family I’ve joined. I’ve learnt why you do different exercises and what that does to make you more healthy and stronger. I’ve had the most amazing results already and already feeling brilliant for it. I have more energy I’m burning body fat, I’m building muscle but more than anything I love it! I already have more confidence in myself. My results are amazing but my journey has just started. If I can do it, you can too.”
