1 martial arts studios to discover.
Last updated
Islington's martial arts scene is compact but varied, with three studios spread across distinct parts of the borough. Highbury Jitsu, based in Highbury, focuses on traditional Japanese jujitsu, while Charley Jones Capoeira brings the Brazilian martial art to the Archway area. Urban Krav Maga, listed under Fitzrovia, offers the Israeli self-defence system that has grown considerably in popularity across London in recent years. The studios are distributed fairly evenly — one each in Archway, Fitzrovia, and Highbury — rather than clustered in a single neighbourhood, which reflects the borough's patchwork geography. Disciplines on offer range from striking and grappling arts to movement-based practices with strong cultural roots. This page brings together the key details on each studio to help you find the right fit.
