Training in Creswell
Jiu-jitsu, hapkido and a heritage centre.
Creswell grew around its colliery, which opened in the 1890s and closed in the early 1990s. Today its training leans towards the mat: Nomad Jiu Jitsu and the European Hapkido Alliance both have a base here. There's also the Creswell Heritage and Wellbeing Centre, a fitness advisor, the Clowne & Creswell Family Tennis Club and junior football, with two riding and trekking centres on the edge of the village.
Creswell Crags, the limestone gorge whose caves hold prehistoric cave art, is close by, and it makes a good destination for a walk or run with someone. Having a regular partner, on the mat or on the trail, is what keeps the habit going.
