# Portsmouth Martial Arts Description
Portsmouth Martial Arts is a specialist martial arts training facility serving Portsmouth and surrounding areas including Southsea, Bognor Regis, Chichester, Fareham, Southampton, Havant, Cosham and Waterlooville. The school specialises in traditional Japanese martial arts, particularly Ninjutsu, alongside Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and dedicated kids' programmes.
The business distinguishes itself by teaching battle-tested self-defence techniques grounded in authentic Japanese martial traditions, rather than focusing purely on sport or competition. Their curriculum encompasses hand and foot strikes, throws, sweeps, takedowns, locks, strangles and escape techniques, combined into a flexible fighting system that adapts to individual body types rather than forcing students into a rigid format.
What sets Portsmouth Martial Arts apart is their holistic approach to martial training. Beyond combat skills, they emphasise building self-confidence and self-discipline whilst creating a community of like-minded practitioners. The school actively teaches traditional weapon systems including katana, hanbo, bo staff and kusari, offering depth rarely found in modern martial arts schools.
Their MMA programme synthesises Thai boxing, kickboxing, boxing, judo, Brazilian jiu jitsu, sambo and wrestling into cohesive fighting technique. Notably, the school welcomes students of all fitness levels, gradually building capability from zero fitness upwards whilst challenging experienced practitioners. The inclusive approach has resulted in significant health transformations, with students regularly achieving substantial weight loss alongside martial competency.
