The DMAF Founder & Chief Instructor
I'm passionate about helping others transform their lives through DMAF Martial Arts
ABOUT ME
Mark Deacon
I was a chubster kid without any confidence until I discovered Martial Arts...
It didn't take long for MA to transform me from a shy kid into a confident one. I am the man I am today because Martial Arts taught me more than just fitness. It gave me life-skills, like perseverance, resilience and determination, and I draw on these skills now - every single day!
When I retired from competitive martial arts I became passionate about instructing and quickly discovered that helping others achieve their own transformation was my purpose in life. I opened my first DMAF club in Oadby, Leicester, and have never looked back...
MY FAMILY
Meet the Deacons
I am a lucky man. Not long after starting DMAF Oadby I married my partner of 7 years and DMAF co-owner, Charlene... Thats 17 years or so in total (maybe not so lucky!)
10 years later, we have two beautiful girls. Freyja, who is just about to change from DMAF Ninjas to the 'grown up' kids class, and Eliza who has been in the DMAF Ninja class having tantrums since she could walk. We are in every sense, a 'real' family Martial Arts Club!
As parents ourselves, Charlene and I both appreciate the benefits of kids learning Martial Arts. But we also know that kids - and adults - need to have fun too...
DMAF Club Culture
Learning Martial Arts the fun way...
