Mirfield Martial Arts Club
Mind, Body & Spirit.
A way of Harmony for young and old since 1975

About Us
We’re among the Oldest Martial Arts Clubs in the UK
Mirfield Martial Arts is a not-for-profit club based near Leeds in Mirfield, West Yorkshire. We have been providing expert instruction in Traditional Martial Arts since 1975.
Unlike most of the franchise Martial Arts businesses you’ll find via google, nobody in MMAC is paid. It’s run 100% by volunteers. This means there is no agenda, no pressure selling, and better value for you.
Every class is led by a highly experienced instructor, fully insured, DBS checked and with a Dan Grade (Black Belt) awarded and ratified by some of the oldest and most respected Budo Associations in the UK.
“We pride ourselves in putting the students first. We are all still learning. We’re all on the same journey. That’s why It’s run by students, for students”

Oh, and one crucial membership benefit that rarely gets mentioned on Martial Arts business websites – it’s also great fun.

Practical Skills
Develop self-defence skills to help keep you safe and learn to avoid putting yourself in harms way in the first place.

I started aikido in 1991 , got hooked immediately and never looked back.Aikido is not just a great defensive martial art but can influence your outlook on life.

Kelsey Bates
1st Dan
I have learned so much going from eager student to instructor. And I get to enjoy it all over again, helping upcoming students on their own journies.

Roger Bawcutt
7th Dan
Aikido is challenging, great fun and addictive. That’s why I’m still here teaching and learning almost 40 years later.
