About Phoenix Martial Arts

Phoenix Martial Arts has been teaching in Hexham for more than 25 years, making it one of the town's longest-running martial arts clubs. Its syllabus follows Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do philosophy, drawing together material from Jun Fan Gung Fu, Thai boxing, kickboxing, boxing, Kali and Escrima and various Filipino and grappling arts into a practical, all-round approach to self-defence and fitness. The club welcomes families, adults and children, with a strong emphasis on discipline, confidence and staying active rather than on aggression.

Adult classes are held at E.T Fitness & Therapy on Maidens Walk in the centre of Hexham, while children's classes run at Wentworth Leisure Centre on Wentworth Place. Newcomers of all abilities are welcome to try a session, and prospective members can contact instructor Simon on 07949 921980 or by email for current class times and to arrange a first visit.
