With the up and coming movie starring Jason Isaacs, Marcus Houston steps in and provides first class personal training sessions.

This is what Jason Isaacs had to say...

"Marcus really went the extra mile for me, putting together a totally customised proramme that built in not just what I needed for the project I was working on, but fitness training, practical tips and ungodly early morning starts.

A great experience all round and one I'd recommend to anyone looking for confidence and conditioning."

"JC Santana and I are always in search of the world's best facilities and instructors when choosing a venue for our prestigious MMA Certified Strength & Conditioning Coach’s course. So when the people of Scotland asked us to bring the MMA-CSCC to their hometown, the obvious choice for us was Marcus Houston’s Combat Ready in Edinburgh. An awesome training facility that was perfect for our MMA-CSCC, but most importantly the atmosphere embodied the ‘TRUE’ warrior spirit feeling, which is no doubt instilled by Marcus’ passion for the Martial Arts. Combat Ready is not just a venue and Marcus is not just an instructor – this is the place where warriors are made!”

"Excellent private tuition which was tailored to the specific areas of training I'd requested. The classes were hard work but always fun and every single one was varied from the last. Really good teaching. Although I am still unclear as to why we did so many sessions with my shorts off."

"I loved to instruct at Combat Ready in Edinburgh.  The space was large and rustic, very practical, and conveniently located, let alone a very warm and friendly staff.  Made my event even better!".

"On the 3rd November 2010 the University of St Andrews hosted a self-defence class as part of the Rape Awareness Week program of events. The aim of the event was to instruct students as to how they could defend themselves specifically in an attempt of sexual assault. The event was very successful. Students learnt many ways of defending themselves, gained confidence and had lots of fun.  The majority of students who attends expressed their desire to attend further self-defence training and felt like they gained vital knowledge.
The event was a great success. Thank-you Marcus!"
