Arroyo Martial Arts Academy
Arroyo Martial Arts Academy was founded by me, Julio Cesar Castro Carmenate, to provide Martial Arts training and fitness instruction in a high quality Martial Arts Academy.
I am Black Belt 6th Dan in Shotokan Ryu and Kairon Ryu. I also have a Black Belt 3rd Dan in Japanese Jujitsu and I am Kru in Muay Thai.
I have a Sports Science Degree and qualifications in Personal Training, Gym Instruction, Zumba ® and Massage. I’m also CRB certified and fully insured.
My dream has always been to open an academy in the UK and that dream came true in June 2014.
If you are interested in Martial Arts Training or Fitness Training that’s a bit different please contact me by phone or email or drop in for a chat
