1-to-1 Martial Arts Coaches
No verified coaches in this discipline yet
A good 1-to-1 martial arts coach does what a team session can't: all the attention on one student, with the session built around what they specifically need to fix. Private martial arts coaching in the UK typically costs £30–£70 per hour, and sessions usually run on matted gyms, dojos and combat-sport clubs. Coaching normally starts from around 5 in most striking arts, from 6+ in grappling.
Sessions usually cover 1-to-1 technique work in the student's chosen discipline (BJJ, Muay Thai, karate, judo, MMA), conditioning and mobility specific to the discipline and grading preparation for belt or level exams. For juniors, ask specifically about how sparring intensity is controlled — this is the single biggest safety differentiator.

Martial Arts coaching FAQ
How much does a 1-to-1 martial arts coach cost?
Typically £30–£70 per hour in the UK. Coaches with academy, county or international backgrounds sit at the top of that range, and block bookings of 5 or 10 sessions usually come at a discount.
How do I choose a martial arts coach?
• Coaches should be able to name their governing body and grading lineage — vagueness here is a red flag • Ask whether junior sessions include drilling only, or controlled sparring — parents should have the call • Confirm the discipline matches your goal — 'martial arts' covers everything from BJJ to karate to MMA
