Karate teacher Paul Scammell denied 12 allegations of indecent assault on teenage girls when he appeared before a Crown court judge on Monday.
Scammell, of Foxley Fields, Urchfont, Devizes, was said to have indecently assaulted a 15-year-old girl three times between January 1999 and October 2000.
The 39-year-old was also accused of pouncing on a 16-year-old girl three times between January 1999 and March 2001.
He faces six other charges of indecently assaulting two females between November 1999 and January 2001 and August 1998 and June 2001.
Scammell stood in the dock at Bristol Crown Court dressed in a turquoise shirt, black jacket and black trousers and spoke only to confirm his name and reply 'not guilty' to the 12 charges of indecent assault.
Judge John Foley granted him unconditional bail and told him to stay in touch with his lawyers so that he would know when to return for trial.
