My fitness isn't very good, should I join a gym first to get in shape?
Our classes will gradually increase your basic fitness levels, muscle tone and flexilbility at a pace that is comfortable for you. Within a few weeks you will feel the benefits physically and will enjoy learning martial arts with people similar to yourself!

Shorts, T - Shirts, Gloves....... How much will I have to pay?
All equipment is provided so there is no need to buy your own. Just wear your own shorts, a t-shirt and come along. Classes can be paid for on the night - or monthly via standing order. There is no joining fee - or expensive uniform to buy!

Do your classes cater for women & children?
Absolutely! We have specific classes for children run by our CRB checked instructors. The age range is from 12 years and up, and all children aged 12 must be booked in with the coach prior to arriving at the session. Teenagers are encouraged to train in the adults class but with someone their own age. Women are very welcome and train alongside the men in the appropriate class. We also offer small group and one to one training - please contact us for more details.

What about competitions? Do I have to fight?
There are various levels of competition, from amateur to professional. We train people from all walks of life and understand that it is a personal choice whether to compete. Our classes are there to teach technique and application in a controlled environment. We have separate sparring classes where students are supervised and coached in our boxing ring.

I'm already training at another club, can I come along anyway?
The Reaper Gym wishes to promote the arts of Muay Thai & Brazilian Jiu - Jitsu in a positive manner. We don't mind if you are training at another club or even if you are training in another martial art. As long as your current instructor doesn't mind - you are very welcome.
