At SBG Bedfordview we have very well trained and experienced coaches to get you started on your fitness journey. They will help you be the best you can, on and off the mats.

Innovative “aliveness” coaching

Our coaching staff is passionate about making champions, regardless of whether you compete or not. We believe in working hard to help you be the best you can be, on and off the mats.

Part of being a good coach is to be highly skilled at what you are teaching. The other part is being able to articulate and communicate clearly what you are teaching. At SBG we use innovative aliveness coaching methods – safe, functional martial arts training that can be used against resisting opponents.
