Special mighty Matt classes for 3-7 years
Family classes for 8 years and up But this is only the start.

Welcome to the Matt Fiddes Martial Arts Gympie School. By following the Matt Fiddes Martial Arts path you will learn how to bring together both mind and body to achieve your goals, be this weight loss, getting fit or boosting confidence and social skills. The Matt Fiddes Martial Arts staff are highly qualified, well trained and motivated to help you get where you want to be, through learning and practicing martial arts. Martial Arts Programmes for all ages and fitness from the Mighty Matts through to adults. Our philosophy is simple; "Everyone can learn and develop their bodies and minds by learning martial arts in a relaxed, exciting and fun way." Regular training through Matt Fiddes Martial Arts delivers much more than physical improvement. Your strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, and confidence will increase considerably. Physical skills act as a foundation for something much more important: the development of value skills, both mental and spiritual. Children at the Matt Fiddes Martial Arts Schools learn life skills such as Respect, Discipline, Goal setting, Concentration, Stranger Danger, First Aid and lots more. Our method incorportates a range of techniques and styles for a well-balanced self-defence system
The Matt Fiddes Martial Arts method incorporates a combination of techniques and principles from a variety of martial arts styles, including: Karate, Kickboxing, Tae Kwon Do, Ju Jitsu, martial arts weapons and Kung Fu - all of which provides our students with a well-balanced self-defence system. Bringing together the best of a range of styles into an integrated system gives Matt Fiddes students the advantage they need to protect themselves in virtually any situation. The Matt Fiddes Martial Arts Schools have been helping people improve their lives through teaching Martial Arts since 1997. Our main goal is to enhance self-esteem and confidence. We achieve this through building self-confidence and character, and by developing a sense of respect for others; in addition to teaching effective self-defence skills and action-packed, fun classes!

⚠️ ALERT: JUPITER IS ON A SLIME‑QUEST ⚠️
Our little legend Jupiter & his classmates are fundraising for a new covered basketball court at their school - something the whole community will benefit from for years to come!

Jupiter is currently 3rd in the entire school for fundraising, and he is determined to climb higher. Why?
Because the student who raises the most money gets to SLIME the Head of Curriculum in front of the school (yes… SLIME πŸ˜„) + Jupiter’s class will earn an icy pole party if they take out the top spot.

So, we are asking you to please commit to financial nonsense, immediately. Do it for the slime, do it for the icy poles, do it for the legacy πŸ’₯

But most importantly, please do it for this incredible school community and the benefit of their sporting games and opportunities for years to come!

Pictured is Jupiter proudly wielding his "Caught Being Good" trophy after a recent MF class 😁

Below is the donation link that will take you to his page -

What an awesome night celebrating our Gympie Juniors & Adults and their latest belt achievements! πŸŽ‰

A massive congratulations to everyone who stepped onto the grading floor, gave it their all and earned their next belt. β€οΈπŸ’™

Every new belt represents so much more than a new colour, it represents the hours of training, determination, resilience and hard work that got you there.

We are incredibly proud of the progress we continue to see from this crew, both in their martial arts and in the confidence they bring onto the mats each week. πŸ₯ΉπŸ‘

Enjoy that new belt, team you earned it! πŸ₯‹πŸ†
