North Kent Martial Arts

North Kent Martial Arts (NKMA) was founded in 2009 by Sensei Saj De Silva. From one small karate class in Swanscombe, we’ve grown into four thriving centres, Swanscombe HQ, Dartford, Gravesend and Ipswich, running classes seven days a week across multiple martial arts. We are proud to have a highly experienced team of instructors skilled in karate, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, boxing, and weapons training, ranging from world champions to our newest academy leaders. Whether you’re a three year old taking your first steps in martial arts, an adult beginner, or an elite athlete aiming to represent your country, NKMA can help you reach your goals.
