help train your child
During our Diddy & Me sessions, the parents get an opportunity to help pad feed for their children watching and helping them learn new skills & develop.
We've also found some children aren't quite ready for learning in an unknown environment, this class bridges that gap and builds their confidence.
The sessions are 45 minutes long and are broken into a warm up where mums & dads should be prepared to do the odd push up or race! Followed by a main session where you'll get a chance work directly with your child, helping them learn new kickboxing techniques & combos.
Wear suitable clothing as you'll be joining in for some of the lesson​.
Diddy Kongs grade every 2 months, with the aim to achieve a grey belt before they move up to the older class.

making it fun
When teaching children age 4 - 6 it's all about making the sessions fun. If a child enjoys what they are being taught, they are more likely to stick at the sport.
Our classes will help develop basic motor skills needed in every day life, such as balance, co-ordination and teamwork.
The sessions consist of a fun, game based warm up, followed by practising their favourite kicks and punches on pads with our coaches.
We grade our Diddy Kong classes every two months, giving them certificates for new coloured belts to keep them motivated.

MMA
The ultimate blend
MMA is a mixture of striking, grappling & ground fighting.
​
To get an insight to MMA, think cage fighting, or UFC.
It is without a doubt the fastest growing combat sport globally.
Originally, MMA was designed to test different fighters from different backgrounds but it has grown hugely in the last few years.
​
Despite what some martial arts claim, MMA is the best self defence system in the world, since it tests all aspects of the fight (excluding weapons)
It covers stand up & ground, against a variety of styles.
6 huge benefits of starting MMA
- Increased confidence
-Improved mood
-Reduced stress
-Improved fitness
-Increased strength
-Make friends
