High energy class!
We absolutely love what we do and we love when the kids match the energy of the class (and this is just after the warm up).

It’s our job to engage, motivate, guide and teach all of our students and you can see how well they work in our classes 🥊

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR LATEST BLACK BELTS 🥋

Today post is showing everyone that it is more than just a belt.
It’s about years of hard work, commitment, sweat, tears, setbacks, sacrifices and refusing to give up…no matter how hard sessions can feel.

Our students have put in countless hours of training, pushed through the tough days, picked themselves back up when things didn’t go their way, and continued to turn up - week after week, YEAR after YEAR!

We always say a black belt (or any belt for that matter) isn’t given… it’s earned.
And these students have earned every single belt that has been awarded to them.

We couldn’t be prouder of the people they have become along the way. Their journey has built not only incredible martial artists, but stronger, more confident and resilient individuals and it’s been a pleasure to watch them grow into who they have become today.

To our new black belts - you should be incredibly proud of yourselves because we certainly are 🤩

This is your moment.
This is your achievement.
And this is only the beginning 🥋

Our Values and why they matter;
We often day kickboxing is about much more than learning to punch and kick. Martial arts gives children an environment where they can develop character, confidence and life skills that they can carry with them long after they leave the gym.

🥇 Excellence – Be your personal best
Excellence teaches children not to compare themselves to everyone else, but to focus on becoming the best version of themselves. It encourages effort, commitment and pride in what they do.

🤝 Respect - Treat others with respect and yourselves.
Respect is fundamental to martial arts. Children learn to listen to instructors, respect their training partners, parents and fellow students, and understand that everyone deserves to be treated fairly. Learning respect at a young age helps children develop positive relationships and understand that strength should never be used to intimidate others.

🧭 Integrity - Do the right thing
Integrity teaches children that doing the right thing matters even when nobody is watching. Through kickboxing, children can learn honesty, accountability and responsibility. They learn to own their mistakes, tell the truth and make good choices—even when those choices are difficult.

📚 Lifelong Learning - Keep growing
Kickboxing teaches children that they won’t master everything immediately. They will make mistakes, struggle with techniques and sometimes experience setbacks. Learning to keep practising and improving teaches patience, resilience and perseverance. The lesson is powerful: you don’t have to be perfect—you just have to keep learning.

❤️ Community - We grow together
A club should feel like more than a place where children attend a class. It should be a community where children feel welcome, included and supported. Training alongside others teaches cooperation, encouragement and teamwork. It can also give children a sense of belonging and a safe environment in which to grow.

The bigger picture for everyone at our club;

These values are important because children are not just learning how to fight they are learning how to handle themselves in life, to become better young people and ultimately adults.

🥋 THE BELT CHANGES COLOUR - BUT THE JOURNEY NEVER ENDS🥋

From receiving your first red belt to becoming a black belt, every step brings new challenges, new lessons and a stronger version of ourselves.

We teach our students that there is no shortcut to kickboxing and there is no finish line, only to keep learning, developing ourselves and our techniques, adapt when adaption is needed and refine what we know and then continue 🥊

Whether you’re just starting out with us or grading at the weekend, remember to trust the process and enjoy the journey with us 🥷

Here at Ninjas Kickboxing we are always teaching our students that kickboxing is not all about how hard you can hit, it’s about how well you can protect yourself too.

Every punch you throw should be matched with the ability to defend against a punch or kick coming back at you, this is where you need to learn to protect yourself!

Learning to block, cover, parry and move, builds confidence, sharpens your reactions 🥊

When your about to film the combination but you get a thumbs instead 😂

We definitely agree with the thumbs up though as it’s been a great week seeing everyone (and our new students) back at training 🥷🥊

What’s good about our classes……
The instructors are always watching and are always on hand to help out students stay safe whilst training!

Our classes are more than just kicking and punching, they are about learning how to be confident at everything - from shouting out our pledge (so many students find their voices doing this) to punching the pads AND to being able to hold the pads confidently which is a harder task than you think.

Great work boys!

Now the summer has finished all of our coaches are very much looking forward to seeing you all back on the mats this week!

The kids maybe a little tired getting back to a routine and a little rusty if they’ve been away for a weeks so we don’t expect everyone to be on their best form but turning up and giving the best you have the next few weeks will help to get our students back to their awesome selfs!

Not every student will reach this stage in their martial arts journey but today we have a team of students who will be showcasing everything they have learned over the last 4 years and more!
You have already shown us resilience, hard work, dedication and determination to get this far and we have great faith in all of you today.

Time to bring your best yet to date and we will look forward to seeing you all on the mats shortly 🥷

One of our (and the students) favourite finisher games where every successful and not so successful jump is celebrated by the team (just to confirm the kids get to choose their own height of pads)!
Games like this help to build confidence, encouragement and good sportsmanship between peers and its always a pleasure to see 🌟
