Not sure what to expect in your first class?

Here's a quick rundown:

Upon arrival you'll be greeted by a member of the leadership team.
They will introduce you to the senior instructor and ask you to fill out an application form, providing a class timetable and calendar of our events for the year too.
After that they will take you to meet a few of the people you will be training alongside and class will start.

The class itself will start with a simple warm up designed to get your blood flowing and body ready to move like a martial artist.
We will practice some basic techniques ranging from punches, to kicks to blocks to stances.
And then get into the main portion of the session, whatever we may be focusing on that week (I'll tell you more about this in a coming post so stay tuned).
We will often finish class with a new technique or drill to broaden your knowledge, alongside some live practice and/ or a quick cooldown.
Then your instructor will come and speak to you, take your feedback and show you exactly how to proceed with membership and joining and answer any final questions you may have.

Thinking about having a go? Drop us a message or simply pop down to a class on Monday, Tuesday or Thursday at the Hastings Centre on the Ridge!!!

Our intermediate Juniors practicing kick catching techniques for the upcoming tournament.

Not only a super effective tool for compeititon but also a great way to start introducing grappling and throwing to our younger students! 😀

IT'S TIME!!

We are just under three weeks out from the Club Championships. A great event we hold twice a year and always have a massive number of competitors enter.

And as with our last event we are keeping the teams divisions to give even more opportunities and experiences to our members and competitors.

I can't wait. Are you entering? Let me know down below!

For the 2nd tournament running our students have the opportunity to compete in team kata and team sparring now.

Not only is this a chance to rack up double the experience (and medals 🎖) per comp.
It also gives you the opportunity to train and compete alongside your team mates and friends and work towards a shared goal.

Here is a snapshot of Jokyu's Philly and Irina competing in the black belt, team kata division at our last event!

Even our youngest students learn how to spar!

Yes it is zero contact and no they dont tend to get too close to each other or necessarily understand the full extent of what they're doing. But it's an important part of martial arts and frankly, they LOVE it.

The smiles and laughter of a child pretending to punch and kick their friends is unmatched 😆😁

Here is some of our Samurais sparring today during tournament prep... look at the round kick 🤯🤯👌

Amazing work these Samurais last Tuesday with Jokyu Philly.

She runs excellent classes here every Tuesday.

I cannot recommend getting down there enough!

DM us to book your first class or pop in and see us during the week!

Discipline. Respect. Resilience.

These aren’t just words — they’re what we live every time we step onto the mat. 🥋🔥

Martial arts isn’t about being the strongest or the fastest. It’s about showing up, trying your best, and never giving up — for yourself AND your team.

Ready to start your journey? Doors are open. Your next level is waiting.

IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK!

After a couple of weeks away teaching elsewhere it was great to be back in Hastings Dojo last night.

A huge thanks to the team keeping everything running whilst I was away and to the instructors who came in to take some classes also. Now we set our sights on the club championships next month!! 👏 🏆
