About Tyne Valley Martial Arts

Tyne Valley Martial Arts is a community-driven, not-for-profit club offering real martial arts training across the Tyne Valley. It teaches Brazilian jiu jitsu alongside kickboxing, Muay Thai and striking for mixed martial arts, in an open and friendly environment aimed at all levels from complete beginners upwards. Keeping monthly fees low is central to the club's ethos, so that cost is not a barrier to taking up training, and adults and older juniors are made welcome on the mats.

The club's Hexham jiu jitsu sessions run on Saturday mornings at E.T Fitness & Therapy on Maidens Walk, with its wider weekly programme, including BJJ and kickboxing, based at Bellingham Town Hall further up the valley. Anyone interested in joining can text or email instructor Alex on 07830 071133 to arrange a first session and find out about current class times.
