All of our instructors are martial artists with a thorough knowledge of sport science..


As a result, working with IMAS you get more than a martial arts instructor who shows you techniques and expects you to copy them; our instructors understand the nature of the human body, and as such can help you to find the best way to execute the techniques using the nature of your own, individual body.





Sifu Vik Hothi is the only fitness instructor in the UK to be certfied by both Pavel Tsatsouline and Scott Sonnon.

Vik holds Russian Kettlebell Training Certification (RKC) from Pavel Tsatsouline and Circular Strength Training Accreditation (CST) from Scott Sonnon. Vik  was one of the earliest adopters of these training techniques in the UK,  starting in 2000, and has coached a high-level K1 fighter, national level wrestlers, a world champion Escrimador and many other kung fu masters.




IMAS is led by Chief Instructor Vik Hothi, along with his two Senior Instructors, Sunny Riyat and Allan Cook.




Vik Hothi

Vik is a highly-experienced mixed martial artist and sports coach who remains at the forefront of sports science and peak performance training techniques.



Sunny Riyat

Sunny is Sifu Vik's longest-serving private student and observing his martial ability is probably the best demonstration of the effectiveness of the teaching  programmes of IMAS.


Allan Cook

Allan has a wealth of martial arts experience  from training with masters across the world.  Training with Sifu Vik since 2005, Allan was rapidly convinced of the effectiveness of IMAS.
