Samurai Kickboxing is a renowned martial arts school located in Maidenhead. With a focus on helping children become the best versions of themselves, Samurai Kickboxing offers a range of classes designed to develop physical and life skills while promoting mental strength, confidence, and resilience.
Founded by Matt Collins 14 years ago, Samurai Kickboxing began as a result of his 4-year-old nephew's desire to learn kickboxing with a few friends. From its humble beginnings, the school has grown exponentially and remains a family affair, with Matt's sister Paula serving as the Managing Director.
At Samurai Kickboxing, children can expect to develop a wide range of skills, including resilience, determination, focus, discipline, self-confidence, self-esteem, flexibility, balance, coordination, reflexes, aerobic fitness, endurance, and stamina. With a focus on high-quality teaching, the classes are designed to help students become better versions of themselves.
Contrary to misconceptions, the classes at Samurai Kickboxing are safe, professional, fun, and engaging, offering much more than just kickboxing. Instructors are fully qualified martial artists, trained in the school's kickboxing syllabus, and equipped with Advanced DBS, Paediatric First Aid, and Child Protection Certification to ensure the safety and well-being of all students.

There are classes available for Little Samurai (age 4 – School Year 2), Young Samurai (School Years 3 – 6), Samurai Kickboxers (School Year 7+), and Adult Fitness Kickboxing (age 15+).
