Martial arts was something I had always wanted to study, but found it difficult to fit in due to various time and money restraints. However, I found that the Rapid Defence Academy was most accomodating and I began with one to one lessons which I could fit in at my lesuire. After that I joined the evening classes and was hooked. I found myself becoming more focused day to day and certainly a lot fitter, all in a clean, friendly and professional atmosphere. For me, the Rapid Defence Martial Arts Academy in Norwich comes highly recommened. -Ciaran U., Stoke Holy Cross, Norwich |

"The martial arts world always seems to argue over which style is better, who would win, etc. In the end it is down to the student and the Rapid Defence Academy run by Sifu Talib is very much about the student. There are no inflated egos, no pretentious Bruce Lee wannabees which is a real change. Most people who want to start a martial art are nervous about doing something they know nothing about but this is a very practical and useful martial art taught by an interesting and interested master. If you have studied a martial art before I would definately recommend the main system we train in which is a very fast and real style of Wing Chun/Tsun - it removes the flamboyant elements of certain martial arts and concentrates on defense and attack. Come along and dispell the myths surrounding martial arts - its fun and you never know when it may save yours or your loved ones life. - Michael J., Norwich |

I joined the academy together with my six year old son last year (8 months ago). For me, a father of three, I felt it was essential that I learned to protect myself and my family. The intelligent, friendly instruction I have received at the Rapid Defence Martial Arts Academy in Ber Street has dramaticaly improved my health, strength, coordination and self-defence skills. The martial arts I have learnt at the school are sophisticated, practical and specifically aimed at real world situations. There are no absurd practices like breaking bricks and flying kicks! What we learn is fast, realistic and effective. The kids classes my son attends have really boosted his self-confidence and are a lot of fun. I have found it particularly helpful that the classes run six days a week and therefore I am able to fit them in around my work commitments. I strongly recommend the Rapid Defence Academy to anyone who takes the welfare of their loved ones seriously. - Alex R., Fakenham |
About The Rapid Defence Martial Arts Academy Norwich
The Rapid Defence Martial Arts Academy was founded in 2004 by Master Instructor Talib Fehlhaber, who has been involved in the martial arts for over 30 years and has been teaching martial arts and self-defence skills since 1993. The Academy has since become Norwich’s premier full time martial arts training centre.

At our modern and clean 2000 sq. ft. full time facility, in the city centre of Norwich, we are committed to providing our trainees with a very comprehensive working knowledge of martial arts and self-defence. You can now also enjoy our classes at our regular Tuesday session at the Esporta (Virgin Active) Sports Centre near Asda in Norwich.
We take great pride in the fact that what we have on offer is without equal in this area. The training ranges from traditional Kung Fu and self-defence training to weapons, usually sticks and knifes, to grappling and ground fighting. This means for you that you are able to cover all areas physical combat under one roof, which will save you a lot of time and money.

Since its inception Wing Chun has enjoyed a continued growth in the West due to its clever and simple design and without the need to resorting to acrobatics. >>> read more…
Escrima Weapons Training
Due to ever increasing levels of knife crime and the fact that Wing Chun is predominantly an unarmed system we have introduced a well sought after weapons training course that is Escrima Concepts. It has its roots in the Philippino fighting arts and has been evolved to a no-nonsense system of personal combat.
Although you are not expected to walk around armed with sticks and/or knifes other people do. Our training gives you a much greater awareness and confidence if ever confronted by an armed attacker. In addition to that it has proven its worth in seriously enhancing your unarmed capabilities. Above all it’s a lot of fun and a great challenge even if you already practise other styles of martial arts.
