Video Section Coming Soon. Meet Steve Cross Mr Cross started training in the art of Lau Gar Kung Fu at the age of 7; under the tutelage of 3x World Champion Kevin “The Jedi” Brewerton and his elite team The Stormtroopers. Achieving his first Black Belt in kickboxing after four years of studying the art in 1995 was no mean feat and in the following year his Black Belt in Kung Fu was presented.It was at this point Mr Cross began his certified instructor training.Going from strength to strength on the competition circuit he became Junior National Champ and within a year went on to take the silver medal at the World Championships held in Prague. Only to exceed this at adult level to become World Semi-Pro Champion in 2001 and to top the year off take the prestigious honour of being awarded Basingstoke Sports Personality of The Year. After many years in the sport he loved and having taken his competing as far as possible, Mr Cross then felt it was time to inspire others as the Stormtroopers had inspired him. A martial arts school was opened in Aldershot under the guidance of Precision Martial Arts & Master Bernard where Mr Cross was to be Chief Instructor. Through Natural progression Mr Cross has now come to open his own school with his father who has had a great passion for the sport for over 14 years.They make a great team and you will love it here. I would highly recommend Cross Kickboxing to anyone. When my husband and oldest son, aged 6, first signed up with Cross, it was a chance for father & son to do something fun together. After the 1st lesson, they came back exhausted but keen to continue! My son is now 10 years old and a black belt! His confidence has grown from strength to strength. He is more focussed and always willing to help other people in the class if they are struggling. My husband is also a black belt and in great shape. My middle son, not to be left out, joined as soon as he was able! They have all made new friends and there is a great sense of camaraderie in the classes. It’s a brilliant way to keep in shape & get rid of any excess energy!! Nita My daughter has been only going to the Cross Kickboxing since December 2015 and has just gained her fourth belt in grading. Going to the club has not only given her fitness but also improved her confidence in her daily life. This is very important as she is registered disabled with special needs and the club has gone out of its way to support her and accommodate her needs. Thank you Cross Kickboxing I am writing to reflect the impact that kickboxing with Mr Cross has had on my 13 year old son. He had lacked confidence and his self esteem was low he is a clever boy but  had been picked on by other kids. This had created a downward spiral. By joining kickboxing it seems to have broken through the pattern. his confidence when achieving belts really boosted him and the discipline and respect at kickboxing has also helped build his character. The children who previously had been unkind, now seem to leave him alone, I believe just the change in his confidence and walking taller, gave them a message. Carol Smith After my first lesson I was hooked!  I saw myself as an overweight, unfit, middle aged woman with a curiosity to try Martial Arts, but Mr Cross saw me as a future Black belt!  I could not even do one press up, I had no idea what martial arts was about but I knew I wanted to challenge myself and I was enjoying learning and the sense of achievement. Liz Read The Cross family are well regarded as being highly influential in the UK martial arts scene. Steve has always been one of the nation’s most naturally gifted competitors and has won many tournaments nation and world wide and is a terrific instructor, plus his father Kevin is one of the driving forces in making the martial arts a reputable and safe past time for children Matt Winsper – WPKA & NBL Champion I have had the great pleasure to have Known Steve Cross for almost 20 years now, and in that time I have Graded, fought   alongside and watched Steve progress into a great Instructor in his own right.

Can not recommend enough for children, my son has been going for the last 6 months twice a week and absolutely loves it. The instructor is friendly but firm and sets clear guidelines for all the class which is mixed abilities including parents (if you wish to partake). Friendly, welcoming and warm atmosphere which enables children to grow and learn at their own pace without any pressure.

My sister, my brother and myself have been going to Cross Kickboxing for many years now. The class has a close family feel and we have all made great friends there. Mr Cross is an amazing teacher who always demonstrates new techniques and exercises. He helps new and old students alike to make sure everyone is reaching the best of their abilities. Kevin is also a vital member of the Cross team keeping us all updated of coming up events and grading. Since I first started i have seen a dramatic improvement in my health and kickboxing. It has given me stronger confidence in many aspects of life and to this day I learn something new at every lesson. I could not recommend the club enough for anyone of any age or ability.

I can't really tell you when I started with Cross kickboxing as I am not keeping tabs but I can tell you that I have been to a few different groups before this one and I feel this fits me really well. I like to challenge myself always and this class has allowed me to progress at my own pace while never loosing site of my goals. I train here with my son who is 10 and its always an oportunity for me to help him improve his skills and spend quality time with him. It is a mixed abilities class and that is perfect in my opinion because it helps you to adapt your style of fighting to different opponents and learn to practice restraint at the same time. You always feel like you had a good workout at the end of every lesson regardless of your ability. Mr Cross is always happy to answer any questions and offer support whenever it is needed.

Started here in my late thirties, about 6 years ago together with my eldest son and Mr Cross has done a fantastic job instructing us both from beginners through to black belts, whilst ensuring we pushed ourselves harder than we thought possible at every stage. I'm amazed with what we've been able to achieve in terms of physical fitness, technical ability and personal confidence. My younger son joined a few years later and is approaching his black belt, both of them have made good friends in the family and adult classes and always leave feeling that they've learnt something new and completely exhausted. Really nice family feel to both classes catering to a wide variety of abilities. Hope to continue attending for many more years.

My son has been kickboxing with Cross Kickboxing for the last 6 years and my daughter has been kickboxing for the last 4 years - I have never had any issues or concerns. Master Cross and Kevin are both very friendly and professional. Master Cross works both my children hard and they always come out sweating. They always do a full warm up before sparring - Master Cross takes a no nonsense approach and this is brilliant considering we are in the midst of a snowflake society! My two have the upmost respect for Master Cross. My son went through a stage of “teenage attitude” recently, thankfully this was short lived thanks to Master Cross, Master Cross gave my son an outsiders point of view to which my son took on board and quickly changed his ways. I would always recommend Cross Kickboxing to anyone who is looking for a martial arts class for their children, especially if they’re having bullying issues - my two know they can protect themselves which gives them the confidence to not only stand up to a bully but to then walk away from confrontation! Just to add... their dad has recently joined too - kickboxing is not only a great martial art Its also a great way of getting fit too!
