Mark Tobias

I’m an experienced martial arts tutor who has trained in kickboxing, karate, tae kwon do, and kung fu. Based in East London, passionate about helping people build confidence, improve fitness, and develop mental resilience through martial arts. My teaching style is beginner-friendly, supportive, and focused on steady progress—whether your goal is self-defence, fitness, stress relief, or personal growth.

I work with students who may feel nervous about starting martial arts, are returning to exercise after a break, or simply want a challenging and empowering way to get fit. Sessions are tailored to your individual ability, goals, and pace.

Training with me is about more than just learning techniques—it’s about building a stronger mindset alongside a stronger body. I place a strong emphasis on correct fundamentals, safe training, and gradual improvement, so you can progress confidently without feeling overwhelmed or pressured. Sessions combine practical self-defence skills, cardiovascular conditioning, coordination, and mental focus, helping you feel more capable both inside and outside the mat. I believe martial arts should be accessible to everyone, regardless of age or fitness level, and I take pride in creating an atmosphere where students feel respected, motivated, and supported. My goal is to help you leave every single session feeling challenged, accomplished, and empowered.
