Our Kickboxing programme uses
western boxing as the main structure of our hand striking, we also add elements from Kali and Ghost Elusive Combat to make our punches effective and efficient, elusive and accurate.
We take kicks from Karate, Muay Thai, Savate and Taekwondo, this gives us a large range of leg techniques to attack with.
Even if you are not flexible kicks to your opponents legs are just as effective as higher kicks.
We use clinch (grappling) techniques from Muay Thai for when the fight gets up close.
From here we can use elbows, knees and sweeps to attack our opponent.
The clinch is an essential part in being a complete fighter (or is just good hard fun).
We use focus mits, Thai pads, kick shields and punch bags to build striking power and targeting. This allows a safe way to train kickboxing and a great way to work off the weeks tensions, It also develops accuracy and timing.
Sparring is developed in a progressive way, starting with light contact for beginners and building as students get more experienced to semi and full contact if people wish. We make sure that people leave their egos at the door when they train as everyone is there to have fun and develop safely.
Technique and skill is one thing but if you cannot last more than 30 seconds without gassing then you are in trouble. Fitness is essential to our training and all the pad work, sparring and partner drills are mixed with traditional fitness elements to get you fighting fit.
Once a month we come together on a Friday Night and put the months training to test.
Friday Night Fight Club is a dedicated 1 hour session of pure sparring.
We go harder than in classes, and really test where our skill and grit levels are.
This is open to all members and also non members from other clubs.
We still ensure that everyone is respectful and different levels of ability are adjusted for, but it is a good hard kickboxing session and is looked forward to and feared by all participants.
Lee and his team are excellent.
Patient and professional with all levels
