I’ve been a member of the Dragons for a couple of years. This is one of the friendliest clubs I have ever been a member of. Mike Ford, our instructor is brilliant, he trains us twice a week, he is totally dedicated to his sport and is an absolute inspiration. This club is great if you want to get fit, great if you want to learn a new sport and great socially. We have a good mix of men and women all with different goals. I would have no hesitations in recommending it to anyone.

My little girl has been going to Western Dragons kickboxing for about 18 months and she thoroughly enjoys it. Having started as a slightly shy, clumsy 5 year she has developed into a confident, active and coordinated little girl.
Mike and his team have been fantastic and work hard to ensure that each member get the most out of each session and reach their potential. Highly recommended.

I joined weston dragons about 16 months ago now and i love it. I look forward to going every week as im always learning more each time. Its been especially good for me as just before i started i found out that i have a lazy eye and that i havent got much sight left in it. My mum was worried that it would knock my confidence and that i wouldnt be able to do it! But if anything its helped it hasnt held me back in any way and my confidence keeps growing. My mum and dad are really proud of how im doing, and now my mums even joined!
I started about a year and a half ago and I have got very far and learned a lot. It has also really helped with my fitness levels. I am the youngest in the club (14-in the adults) so I am qualified to say that it doesn't matter how old/young, how fat/thin, how fit you are because you can still take part and you will still be accepted as all the people in the club are kind and easy to get along with.
You don't have to worry about being bad either because everyone starts out like that, we have all been there when you start. Not only that but the first session is free so you can just come along and try it out.
I have been part of the Weston Dragons for only a few months, but within that time I have found Mike a patient and knowledgeable instructor. The other members have been nothing but encouraging and supportive with my training throughout and I can say that it is by far the best club I have been a part of . After a long period of doing little in the way of exercise, I was keen to improve my health but didn't want to just be running on a treadmill like a hamster !! So I came to my first lesson with Mike and the Dragons not really knowing what to expect , but by then end of the lesson I knew I'd be coming back.
My self motivation and confidence have been given a boost and fitness levels are improving so for anyone looking for something fun and enjoyable that also gives a better workout than the treadmill come on down! Not only that but self defense at the same time. Bonus!
The atmosphere in the lessons is always good , no egos like I've found in some martial arts I've done previously, warm genuine people that have a passion for kickboxing that permeates through the group. Keep up the good work and I'm proud to be a Dragon and part of this fantastic club.
So finally first lesson free, no contracts tie you , bring a friend and a bottle of water and see you soon !
I have been training with Mike now for over two and a half years now. I first joined when I was on a fitness kick-start, having been inactive for too long. Kickboxing was something I had been interested in for a bit but I was apprehensive of joining a club. I was recommended to Dragons and I'm glad I tried it. As well as having learnt a lot, the atmosphere is very relaxed and I've made a number of good friends through it.
I am now ranked 2nd Kyu (Brown Belt) and I am very much looking forward to achieving my 1st Dan (Black Belt). As well as the skills I have learned for the grading, there are many others, such as self defence, that I have learnt along the way. My fitness is greatly improved as well, thanks to both the work done at kickboxing, but also the work done at the gym. My desire to be a better kickboxer means a greater desire to go to the gym. So it is a great motivator for anyone looking to improve their fitness as well.
The first session is free so why not give it a go yourself?
Hi All, Our son joined the dragons about 18 months ago now, we went along to a few other clubs in weston and found them costly and unfriendly, we've found the dragons keep the price low and the friendlyness high, Our daughter has just turn 6 and she joined up about 6 months ago and is loving it, the club kept the cost down by discounting your second child cost if you pay for the term, thankyou dragons, john & sarah
Hi everyone. Ever been in a position where you cant find your true kickboxing home?? The one where you always find that effort to go week in week out no matter how ill or tired you feel after a long days work! Then look no further!! All I can say is that this is one of the best clubs around!! Mike and Sarah who run the club are two of the best instructors I have ever trained with and are truly dedicated to ensuring everyone learns to the best of their ability. Their dedication to making sure true technique is learnt in a fun, safe and informative manner shines through.
Well done guys. Its good to know the 'Dragons Kickboxing' spirit that existed in the original Lincoln based club is being delivered to new parts of the country!! We are all proud to have trained with you and see you passing your excellent skills on to others :)
