Brought my 3 year old son for his first introduction to martial arts with coach Jack, great class he really enjoyed it. I've also trained with Ashley in the past who is a very experienced pro fighter and a great guy for adults to learn from. I would be surprised if there is equivalent experience in the moorlands area...
