Sempai M. Langley (Sonic)AKBA British Champion
Sport Kickboxing originated in the United States in 1975 and was developed by a group of top karate practitioners. Unlike Thai boxing where elbows, knees and low kicks are used, Sama Kickboxing involves boxing with your hands, with the exception of the added spinning fists (not allowed in some tournaments) and kicks from karate which must be above the waist in a fight situation.
It is a hugely popular sport as it offers a full body workout with cardiovascular and resistance training whilst helping to build lean, long muscle and burn fat. It also gives valuable self defence techniques, improved flexibility and strength.
But most importantly it is great fun. All training is set to motivating music. Classes are conducted in a relaxed and friendly environment. It is suitable for all ages (from 11 upwards) and fitness levels.
Newcomers always welcome.
As with all our classes kickboxing operates a
pay-as-you-go scheme.
£4.50 for adults, £4 for under 16s.
