Thoughts from parents
“As a Mum, I’m just happy that I finally found a self defence class for my teenage daughter. This was definitely missing in Dubai. It’s such a fun way to learn a life skill and this should be a part of every girls education.”

“Leah is an exceptional martial arts instructor who has made a wonderful impact on my two boys, aged 9 and 7. She has a remarkable ability to keep them both engaged and focused for the entire hour, something that is no small feat! Her energy, patience, and enthusiasm really shine through in every lesson.”

“My husband and I grew up in the UK and although we are grateful for the safe environment Dubai provides for our children, we do worry about their lack of “street smarts”. My daughter loves the Impulse class and I’ve noticed a boost in confidence.”
