Hi, I'm Master Kara Mitchell, Chief Instructor of the Leeds South AEGIS Academy
Martial Arts has given so much to me, I want more people to benefit from it too
I began my AEGIS journey in 2012 as a student at the Leeds West AEGIS academy. My original goals were to improve my confidence, maintain my fitness levels and also know I had the skills to defend myself should the need ever arise.
I quickly discovered I had a passion for the martial arts and after 3 years of training as a student, I was invited to join the AEGIS Certified Instructor Training program and train as an instructor. I've now been a full time Instructor since 2016, with the first 4 years as Program Director then Chief Instructor at the Leeds West academy.
I have been running the South Leeds AEGIS academy since September 2019, where we have a growing community of AEGIS students of all ages. Martial arts has changed my life for the better in so many ways and it's my goal to pass those same benefits to all my students, no matter their age or ability.
