This style encompasses techniques taken from Tae Kwon Do, Karate, Muay thai/chinese Kickboxing and Baguazhang (chinese internal martial art)

Earth & Ocean Martial Arts is the creation of Andy Coles (Mr.C)

This style encompasses techniques taken from all of his knowledge and skills that he has learnt since starting martial arts at the age of 16 (1986).

IT IS A COMBINATION OF KARATE, TAE KWON DO, KICK BOXING AND BA GUA ZHANG (Chinese internal martial art).

The concept of this style is based on the theory of Yin & Yang; the techniques can be soft and fluid as well as dynamic and powerful.

Children's classes are from ages 7 to 12.
In the near future classes for 4-7, will be starting.

Adult's classes are from ages 12 & above.

The children's classes incorporate more traditional concepts of learning and developing:

The 4 most important qualities of a student:

Concentration
Self-control
Courtesy
Respect

It is especially suited for children to focus there minds and learn skills to protect themselves from difficult situations.

Mr.C has set in place, rules for the children to follow as well as those listed above, which they must follow not only in training, but in every day life.

The parents of the children also have a part in the child going for a grading (belt progression). They will be asked if the students have been using the disipline and mental focus at home and in school to becoming better people. If they don't think they have, then this could affect them going for there next belt.

The Adults classes are ideally suited to those whose wish to learn and understand the true meaning of the martial arts, this style incorporates traditional and modern training concepts,which include psychology, weapons, sparring, pressure point striking, disrupting the body, minimum force-maximum effectiveness, energy work, kata and more.
