Kickboxing is a modern day martial art which combines the kicking technique from martial arts such as Karate, Tae Kwon Do and Muay Thai and conventional punching techniques from western Professional Boxing.
Kickboxing was originally introduced as Full Contact Karate in late 1950s to the Western World from Japan in a sporting format as opposed to a strict martial arts discipline as competitors wanted to continue with their combinations.
The American influence in the mid 1960’s popularised the sport bringing it more mainstream across Europe and now we see many different rule sets being practiced such as, Ring Continuous (Controlled contact bouts), Semi-contact (stopping after each point), Full Contact (Kicks above the waist with power), Kickboxing (Low Kick) and K-1 (Modified rules including low Kick and limited clinch and knees).
Kickboxing offers something for everyone whether its participant’s goals are fitness, weight loss, confidence and self esteem building, ambitions to become a black belt or ambitions to become a Champion.

Like most things in life, the more you put in the more you get out and the sport of Kickboxing is no different.
We encourage our students to commit as much time and effort as possible to their training in order to reach their goals quicker and achieve the very best results.
Sometimes obviously life gets in the way of Kickboxing and we understand that. As well as practicing at the gym we encourage students to also practice at home wherever possible and have coaches with a wealth of knowledge to advise on this.
In order not to restrict your movement when stretching and performing kicking technique you should try to wear comfortable loose fitting clothing. Jogging bottoms and a t-shirt are ideal. We train in bare feet on a matted area so no footwear is required.
We always recommend bringing a hoody for afterwards and a bottle of water to keep hydratyed (no other food or drinks in the dojo)
KIt can be built up as you train, we have a fully stocked Pro Shop with everything you will need and it will be the correct type and the best quality.
