TRAINING SESSIONS
Sessions
K500 Kickboxing + sessions are ideal for everybody!
Kickboxing combines the punches of boxing with the kicks of various martial arts styles. At our classes the emphasis is based on kicking and punching drills. Most of the training in our class is practiced on focus pads, kick shields and kick bags. Kickboxing also offers a great aerobic workout. Kickboxing techniques are also ideal for developing self defence skills.
There is NEVER any pressure to spar, hit another or get hit yourself. We encourage you to try out the skills you’re learning and developing but NEVER any pressure, from any coach or instructor should be placed upon you.
Sessions vary from week to week but we offer drills and exercises that include:
Explosive Kicking
Punching Drills
Sweeping Drills and Take Downs
Fitness Workouts
Strength Drills
Balance Drills
Flexibility Drills
Combination Drills
Self Defence
Fighting Skills
Pad Workout
Sparring Training – Non Compulsory
Regular Competitions
Confidence & Self Awareness
We teach Kickboxing right, so what is the ‘+’ for?
It’s because we also teach elements of Judo, Ju-Jitsu, Aikido, Muay Thai and Kung Fu to name a few.
We opt to teach kickboxing as a foundation to build on due to its fluidity, ease of movement and one’s ability to adapt technique.
I guess you could say that adopting techniques from various methods of combat we verge on MMA. However, MMA these days has very much become a ‘style’ within itself.
I try not to use the term MMA or Mixed Martial Arts because we don’t teach it as a style. We provide an insight into the tools and movements used in many Martial Arts, allowing the fighter/student to put it together in a format that works for them and their structure.
Adults
Beginner:
Anybody that has ever wanted to have a try at Martial Arts. Anybody with fitness goals or weight loss as both can be achieved with Kickboxing.
Intermediate:
People that have done some combat before. Possibly graded and wishing to further their skills. Possibly never graded but would like to. Maybe even someone wishing to compete and become a better fighter. We use Biomechanics & Human Movement Pattern training to
achieve this.
Advanced:
Similar to intermediates but to the higher end of a syllabus. 3rd Kyu (Purple Belt) or above. These people would benefit from the experience of a Martial Arts Movement Specialists & WAKO GB’s Coaching Officer. Not to mention being put through your paces and pushed to your limits of fitness and skill by our qualified coaches.

GRADING
Grading is a necessary part of the path to learning Martial Arts. It is a way to show your instructors the level of your progress, to identify any areas that need to be worked on and to test you mentally. The pride and satisfaction from gaining a grade cannot be measured. It is an award
for all the hard work, discipline and commitment that you have shown.
