What our members are saying...
"Best decision I made for the children. Essentially started them so they can defend themselves if needed. The classes support and equipped the children with so much more and so many different skills such as self esteem, confidence, respect, listening and discipline.
Instructors are great and full of enthusiasm. Different days or times to choose from which gives flexibility.
Both children started at the age of 4, 3 years in and I've also joined with the children which is great fun. Great club, great atmosphere.!"
— Carly, Parent of a Tiger a Dragon, and now a student herself.
"I've been taking my sons to Seven Star Martial Arts for over 12 years and that already says something.
Eventually my husband joined them as well. On the start we wanted to help our kids gain more confidence but they've learned so much more there...and got fitter.
All our family highly recommends these classes and Master Summers is not only a great instructor but also a role model for young people."
— Karol, Parent
“Our granddaughter attends the tiger tots class twice a week and absolutely loves it .
We have noticed an increase in her level of confidence, social interaction and general fitness .
The instructors are friendly ,experienced, dedicated and very motivating. Making every session fun for all.”
-Sandra, Grandparent
“I can’t recommend this seven-star martial arts class enough for my child !
My 6-year-old absolutely loves it and looks forward to every session.
The instructors are phenomenal—patient, energetic, and incredibly skilled at working with children.
They focus not just on teaching proper techniques, but also on important life skills like discipline, respect, and confidence.
The classes are well-structured, fun, and engaging, with the perfect balance of learning and physical activity.
I’ve already noticed a positive change in my child’s focus and coordination. It’s amazing to see the kids cheering each other on and celebrating their progress.
Definitely worth every penny!”

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the youngest age kids can start?
The youngest age we take is 4 years old, though we’re happy to accept children a couple of weeks early if they’re ready. We assess this during the 1-2-1 trial lesson.
Q: Are your classes suitable for beginners?
Absolutely! Our classes cater for ALL fitness levels, especially beginners, as we recognize that the beginning is the most important stage of development.
Q: Why a 1-2-1 trial class & how do I book?
In the past, we placed new students directly into regular classes from day one.
While some thrived, many children (and adults!) found it overwhelming, similar to being thrown into the deep end of a pool without knowing how to swim.
Now, with our structured 1-2-1 trials, we ensure a smoother, stress-free introduction to martial arts by:
-- Building confidence before stepping into a full group setting.
-- Giving a clear understanding of what to expect in our classes.
-- Providing tailored guidance based on the student’s needs, age, and experience level. Helping parents see the value of our structured syllabus and character development focus.
Simply click on the "Book a Trial" button and choose one of the available sessions from the calendar.
Q: What should I wear to my first 1-2-1 trial class?
Wear comfortable clothing you can move in. Track suit and t-shirt is best. You'll receive your customized uniform on enrollment!
Q: How long do the classes last? And do you have to attend both classes?
Tigers classes are 30 minutes twice a week.
Dragons and Adults classes are one hour twice a week, with an unlimited classes option for Dragons & Adults.
We recommend attending both classes every week. This we’ve found is optimal for development and best results.
Q: Is martial arts safe for children?
Absolutely!
We have over 143 square meters of matted training area at our full time Neath Center, with plenty of viewing space for parents and guardians to watch their children’s progress in our safe and supportive environment.
All of our instructors and leaders are highly trained and first aid certified.
Plus, we have a comprehensive child protection policy which is available on request or enrollment.
Q: How much are the classes?
Prices depend on age/class/frequency options, but start at just £40 (much cheaper than swimming, dance or gymnastics).
Class fees are monthly, and there are family discounts of 25% available!!
There are multiple discounted enrollment options which are fully explained after the 1-2-1. These include the first years membership, custom uniform, access to our extensive online material and training videos.
There are also additional upgrade options available, as we want to be as affordable as possible.
However, I’m sure you understand, you get what you pay for, and it’s an investment into your/your child's future, which will be invaluable!
