Welcome To Dorchester Martial Arts
Dorchester’s Premier Martial Arts Gym
Dorchester Martial Arts is West Dorset’s number 1 training facility. We specialise in helping our clients learn Thai Boxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Submission Wrestling and Self Protection skills while getting fitter and having fun through group classes and personal training.
We realise that every new member will begin training with a different level of training experience and understanding of martial arts. We also appreciate that joining a group class without adequate training in basic martial arts movements is both daunting and can potentially lead to injury.
At Dorchester Martial Arts every new member is guided through a 1-2-1 Fundamentals course, this allows you to progress at your own pace and join our group classes when you feel confident to do so whilst giving you the chance to get to know our gym and instructors personally.
We pride ourselves on our ability to provide a diverse range of martial arts programmes that cater to all ages and capabilities . So whether your goal is to compete, earn a black belt, improve your overall fitness or just enjoy learning a new skill then Dorchester Martial Arts has a programme for you!
