Whether you’re looking for kids martial arts classes, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ), Self Defence or Kickboxing in Bristol, we offer structured, beginner-friendly programmes designed to help you and your family build confidence, fitness and real skills.
We keep our classes smaller, so you’re not just another face in the room - meaning you or your child get the attention, coaching and support needed to make real progress.
Many martial arts schools focus on big classes and high volume.
We do things differently.
Smaller Classes
We keep classes smaller so our coaches can work with every student and help them improve.
Beginner Friendly
Most of our students start with no experience. We guide you step-by-step so you feel comfortable from your first session.
No Ego Training Environment
You’ll train alongside supportive teammates who want to improve together.
Real Skills
Our programmes focus on practical striking, grappling and self defence skills that build genuine confidence.

For me BJJ has been hugely rewarding. I have enjoyed to watch my skill set grow and have fun with a great community of people. It has taught me a lot alongside helping me improve my self defence skills. I really reccommend it whether you want to win medals, learn self defence or just have fun.

My daughter has been training with StandStrong since the age of 5 (now 9). StandStrong has helped her physical and mental development, and she is growing into a strong and confident young woman, as a result. The team are really passionate and committed to the kids and their growth.
