If you want someone who is keen, enthusiastic and more than patient, you need to attend a martial arts session with this guy (Adam).
We have been taking our 9 yrs old grandson for nearly 12 mths.
Under Adams guidance, his confidence has grown considerably.
Sessions are made to be fun and enjoyable for the kids.
I would highly recommend YSMS for anyone looking for a martial arts instructor

My son has been with Adam over a year, he's taught him alot and shown him what persistence can achieve. He couldn't do anything when he first started has come along way. Adam is a great teacher and also has amazing helpers that make the sessions run smoothly. Highly recommend

My three children have been attending for many years and throughly enjoy it. My eldest started when she was 6 and now she is 14! Adam is a great instructor and is very professional. Communication is spot on.
I have recommended and will continue to recommend Adams YSMS. If you want a honest, reliable, trustworthy, highly professional and a kind instructor Adam's your man.

My 12 year old son has been training with Adam for 3 years now and loves it, he's already got great plans for becoming a martial arts instructor just like Adam when he's older!
Adam is the best kind of instructor, upholds discipline but not bossy, friendly and funny but never a pushover and knows how to get the best from children and adults of all ages and abilities.

The club is fantastic for adults and children alike. I attend (age late 40s) and so do my 2 daughters age 8 and 13. Every week is different and everyone can succeed whatever their ability. Adam is very knowledgable, supportive and encouraging. The club is welcoming and friendly. A great club to be a part of!

My son has been doing classes with Adam for around 2 and a half years now and still looks forward to it every week. Adam is great with all ages in the class, keeping them focused but also having fun. Learnt a few things myself sat observing every week.
I would highly recommend these classes for any age or experience level. Adam clearly loves his job!

Well what can I say I'm a 70 year old young man who's always looking for new challenges so approx 1 year ago along with my daughter started doing martial arts with our instructor/Sensei Adam who trust me needs to have a lot of patience but he's just a great all round bloke who's very passionate and proffesional about his craft and nurtures all his students from 5yrs old to the old guy writing this oh and forgot to mention he also teaches my 12yrs old granddaughter who has cerebral palsy and the only one from miles around who was willing to give her a chance

My son has been attending after school karate lessons with Adam for a number of months now. The lessons have improved his confidence & he is always eager to share with us what he has learnt after each lessons. He is very proud of the progress he has made & the different coloured belts he has earned so far. He is already keen to achieve the higest level in karate & aspires to be just like Adam. Adam is an amazing teacher & the children have a lot of respect for him & really like him. Adam is always willing to answer any questions you may have & he will always respond promptly to any messages you send him. My youngest son is also keen to join Adam's karate lessons & he will do when he is old enough. I would recommend Adam's karate lessons to family & friends.

Adam is great with the children. He's fun and has a good balance between discipline and encouraging the children to bring out their best.
