About Us | Cobra Martial Arts

Cobra Martial Arts - for Self Defence and Fitness!

Cobra Martial Arts and Fitness Centres have been teaching beginners for 30 years. We guarantee that all of our students will experience significant health, fitness, confidence and life improvements within their first month of training. You are not expected to be 'in shape', fit, nor flexible to begin training in the Cobra Martial Arts beginner classes. It is OUR job, to work with you, gradually improving your health, fitness and self defence capability. As a beginner it is important that you participate at your own pace and only increase your intensity as your fitness improves.

Offering the last line of defence against many of life's major threats!

"We all stand on the front lines of a war that threatens the lives of every man, woman and child today. The enemy includes such threats as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer, stroke, gang membership, bullying, smoking, drinking, drug use, low self-esteem, mental disorders, depression, suicide, insufficient exercise, improper diets, school dropout and a lack of goal setting & achievement skills.

Proper martial arts schools such as Cobra, that still teach traditional values, life skills and character development, are some of the only places remaining within our society today, where self-discipline, self-control, self-confidence and self-belief; the weapons needed to defeat these enemies, are still being taught."

How and why the Cobra 'Freestyle' or Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Concept was developed

The Cobra Martial Arts & Fitness Centres founders are Kyoshi Craig Monie and Sensei Aubrey Monie, who began martial arts training as children in the 1980's. They have studied and achieved black belt/level ranks or higher in five different martial arts styles, being Karate, Taekwondo, Muay Thai, Freestyle Kickboxing and Filipino Eskrima, as well as compete at state level and national level in numerous forms of martial arts over the past 30 years.

Cobra Martial Arts and Fitness Centres - Established 30 Years!

Cobra Martial Arts & Fitness Centres are some of the few, original, long-standing and stable martial arts schools in Western Australia. Martial arts schools are opening and closing down almost every week in Perth, but Cobra has stood the test of time and is growing stronger every year, with firm plans already in place for the next 30 years.

Over the past three decades, our highly qualified team of 20 instructors, have become experts at helping local people and families with their fitness, health, weight loss, self-defence capability, self-respect, discipline and confidence. We GUARANTEE to get you into shape and to teach you how to defend yourself, if you commit to the program and you may even be surprised to learn some possibly unexpected skills, such as how to achieve your dreams.

Besides the obvious physical benefits of Cobra Martial Arts training, students report constantly, that their life, including home life, family life, work/career and school/education performance, have also improved, as part of the Cobra Martial Arts training process. Improved self-discipline and the learning of goal-setting skills learned through the program, will help you more than you may realise, in other areas of your life, such as if applied to finance and investment.

We have seen it happen to our students every day for the past 30 years at Cobra Martial Arts and Fitness Centres. Surround yourself with positive and motivated people, who are achieving their dreams and going places and you will be swept along with us! If it is to be - It is up to me (you!).
