Atlantic Martial Arts Club

Discover the rich heritage and disciplined artistry at Atlantic Martial Arts Club, a cornerstone of the Trafford community since 1968. Originally founded as a Judo club by Soke Reg Stone, the club has evolved into a premier destination for those seeking to master Bushi Kempo Ju Jitsu, offering a unique fusion of traditional Japanese martial arts and effective modern self-defence. Now led by Chief Instructor Sensei Chris Stone, the club maintains a family-friendly atmosphere that welcomes absolute beginners as well as experienced practitioners.

Our curriculum is designed to provide a holistic approach to martial arts. Students engage in a comprehensive training program that includes striking, blocking, joint-locks, throws, and modern ground-fighting techniques. Beyond physical fitness and self-confidence, we place a strong emphasis on traditional weapons training. Members have the opportunity to learn Kata using authentic Japanese weapons such as the Nunchaku, Jo staff, and Bokken, under the guidance of highly ranked instructors.

We offer a welcoming environment where safety and comfort are paramount. No prior experience is necessary; our senior instructors will guide you through etiquette, basic movements, and safe falling techniques during your first session. New members are invited to try their first class completely free of charge. The club operates primarily with a Senior Class (18+) held every Tuesday evening from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm at the Scout Hut in Lyburn Hall, Timperley. Whether your goal is to learn practical self-defence, improve flexibility, or join a supportive community of like-minded individuals, Atlantic Martial Arts Club is the perfect place to begin your journey.

Fantastic experience: The knowledge of this club is astounding - no surprise since the club has been active for the best part of 50 years. It’s a blend of Japanese ju-jitsu, judo, aikido and BJJ. The club is as old school as it comes and self defence is at the heart of what is taught.

Fantastic experience: I have trained at this club for nearly 10 years. Started as an absolute beginner. The standard of this club is so high, and the years of experience and multiple high level Dan grades combined, gives such a great martial arts foundation and learning experience. I can proudly say I achieved my first Dan black belt at this club and it is all done to the knowledge, patience and exceptionally friendly and approachable teaching team who helped me get there with consummate ease. No matter what your background - total novice or experienced martial artist - I cannot recommend this club enough
