A combat club for women & marginalised genders in Bristol.
About ACC
Athena Combat Club is a martial arts club designed to create a safe space for all women and marginalised genders. Our Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday classes are designed for any level, from complete beginner to seasoned fighter. We focus on K1 kickboxing and Muay Thai techniques as well as functional fitness.
We have regular socials, a WhatsApp chat, and we usually go for coffee/breakfast after training on a Saturday, so it’s a great way to meet new people!
About Your Coach
My name is Ash (she/her) and I’m the face behind ACC. I’ve been training in K1 kickboxing, Muay Thai, and boxing for just over 11 years and I’ve been coaching for the last 4. I’ve trained in the UK, Thailand and Australia. I’m fully qualified and insured to coach Muay Thai and K1 Kickboxing by the British Martial Arts & Boxing Association. I’m passionate about getting more people involved in the sport.
Facilities
All our classes take place in the studios at The Hideout Bristol. The studios are newly refurbished with large mirrors and a sound system. There are gender neutral changing cubicles and it is an LGBTQIA+ safe space. We get the whole studio to ourselves and it is a brilliant space to train in.
All equipment (pads and gloves) on a Wednesday and Saturday is provided, but we do recommend bringing your own gloves and handwraps if you have them.

"I was really nervous to begin with as it was something I had never tried before, but Ash was really reassuring and it made me feel at ease. Already looking forward to my next session!"
