Welcome To Nemesis Martial Arts & Fitness

A Quick Hook Kick About us

Nemesis Martial Arts & Fitness was established in the early 2000’s by Peter Felix, a 5th Degree Black Belt & Former Undefeated European & British Champion.
The aim of the club has always been to provide high quality and effective Martial Arts training to the people of Berkshire, and as a club we teach our students a very effective form of self-defence, through the use of various traditional and modern Martial Arts skills.
Since its inception, Nemesis Martial Arts & Fitness has been both training and mentoring Martial Artists, and we continue to grow our family orientated club by offering the best support, advice and training to all of our students.
We believe strongly that training in the Martial Arts can benefit young people immensely. We do this by providing them with a structured environment based on mutual respect for both them and their fellow students.

Our Classes

Junior Classes

At Nemesis Martial Arts, our junior classes start from 5 years old, until the child is 14. All of our classes start with a warm up program, where the children are given cardio vascular exercises along with stretching, and fun strength exercises. Following the warm up the rest of the lesson is spent on teaching kickboxing techniques, shadow sparring, pad work, sparring drills, Karate drills and traditional Karate Katas so that the children understand all aspects of our chosen arts. Many of our children progress on to the adult classes and stay with the club well into adult hood.

Adult Classes

Our Adult classes start from the age of 14 years onwards and are open to both men and women. These classes are fantastic and have always attracted a wide variety of people from different social backgrounds and cultures. These classes start with a warm up session, which is similar to the Children’s Classes although run for longer and are more intense, then followed by martial arts training session. The friendly environment of Nemesis Martial Arts means that we always have several family groups training together.

Fitness Training

Should you be seeking a fitness class that really burns fat, tones your body and increases self-esteem, then we would gladly welcome you to join in and try any of our class warm ups. These last 40 to 45 minutes, and involve anaerobic and aerobic techniques, together with core stability exercises. You will be welcomed by our fittest students who will help you and push you, and you will be training alongside our regular martial arts fight team members. This will give you a taster of what we do to keep winning at competitions, and help you gain a winning mindset.

Exceptional Martial Arts and Fitness Training at Nemesis Martial and Fitness. I am delighted to share my family's experience with Nemesis Martial and Fitness, where my son, wife, and daughter have been attending since last summer. This place has truly been a game-changer for us, providing exceptional martial arts training, fostering personal growth, and surrounding us all with positive role models and friendship. First and foremost, I cannot express enough how impressed I am with the progress my son has made since joining Nemesis. Not only has he won British and World Titles, but for me, more importantly he has also grown in confidence, developed leadership skills, and improved his overall fitness considerably. The dedicated instructors headed up by Sensei Peter Felix and Sensei Matt Church along with the supportive community of parents at Nemesis have played a significant role in pushing him to become a better version of himself every day. The training sessions are challenging yet rewarding, and each and every Black Belt instructor go above and beyond to ensure each student reaches their full potential. My daughter has also found inspiration and motivation at Nemesis. With aspirations to join the fight team one day to emulate her older brother, she is surrounded by numerous positive role models who exemplify discipline, kindness, and sportsmanship. The inclusive and encouraging environment has instilled in her a sense of belonging, ambition and a drive to excel in martial arts that I know will set her up for life. The instructors and fellow students have become like an extended family (I see them more than my own family :-), providing guidance and support as she pursues her own goals. Thank you, Nemesis Martial and Fitness, for creating an environment where our family can thrive and continuously strive for excellence. Read Less

This is an outstanding martial arts club! While they primarily focus on Kickboxing, they also offer training in various other martial arts styles. My 13-year-old son absolutely loves it here. He especially enjoys the sparring sessions and participating in different competitions. This club offers a fantastic opportunity to learn lifelong skills. Come join us—it's a skill for life!

My 9 and 12 year old train with Nemesis and their fitness levels and confidence have increased at an amazing pace. They both love attending the classes that require a strong work ethic and work hard to become strong members of the team. My children are developing a strong winning mentality with my son in particular aspiring to compete and become a winner. This is all due to the efforts of the Nemesis staff who work tirelessly to develop the skills of the parents and the children.

My family and I have been training with Nemesis Martial Arts and Fitness for over 15 years now and I can’t speak highly enough of the club. The knowledge and professionalism of the instructors is second to none, they dedicate their own time to teach children and adults of all ages to help them in their martial arts journey.

I've trained with Peter Felix on and off for over twenty years, I introduced my children when they came along and they are stronger more confident adults now for the time they spent in Nemesis classes. I'd highly recommend Nemesis to anyone looking for top end fitness and to take part in old school competitive martial arts. You won't find anyone more dedicated to a club or the Sport in the Reading area!
