V13 TACTICAL | WORKSHOPS & WEEKLY TRAINING

We’ve got some exciting plans developing at V13 Tactical, with a series of practical Self-Protection & Personal Safety Workshops coming up.

Our upcoming workshops will include:

WOMEN’S SAFETY WORKSHOPS
Practical personal safety designed specifically for women. Awareness, recognising potential threats, setting boundaries, creating distance, escape strategies and effective physical responses when avoidance is no longer an option.

TEEN SAFETY WORKSHOPS
Helping young people become more aware, confident and capable of recognising and responding to difficult or potentially dangerous situations. From situational awareness and personal boundaries to dealing with confrontation, pressure and physical threats.

MIXED SELF-PROTECTION WORKSHOPS
Open to men and women who want practical, realistic self-protection skills. We’ll cover awareness, threat recognition, avoidance, de-escalation and physical skills designed around one objective: getting yourself home safely.

These workshops aren’t about teaching people how to fight.

They’re about knowing how to recognise trouble earlier, make better decisions under pressure and protect yourself when you have no other choice.

And the training doesn’t have to stop when the workshop finishes.

V13 Tactical runs weekly self-defence classes, giving you somewhere to continue developing your skills, fitness, confidence and ability to perform under pressure.

Weekly Classes

Monday | Women’s Self-Defence
6:30pm – 7:30pm

Thursday | Mixed Self-Defence
7:30pm – 8:30pm

Friday | Kids & Teens Self-Defence
4:30pm – 5:30pm

Whether you want to attend a workshop, start weekly training or use a workshop as your introduction before joining us regularly, there will be plenty happening at V13 Tactical over the coming months.

More workshop dates and details will be released soon.

📢 IMPORTANT – MEMBER CHECK-IN

We need to make this clear to everyone using Room13 Fitness.

ALL members MUST check in every time they enter the gym.

Please check in using your membership card or through the app BEFORE entering the gym.

This isn't optional.

We need an accurate record of who is using the gym and who is in the building at any given time. This is important for health and safety, emergency procedures and ensuring that everyone using the facilities has a current membership or has paid for their session.

Unfortunately, we are still having people entering the gym without checking in.

If you haven't checked in, we cannot confirm that you have an active membership or have paid to use the facilities.

Going forward, anyone who has not checked in may be asked to return to reception and check in before continuing their training.

Please don't put staff in the position of having to repeatedly chase people to do this.

It takes a few seconds:

ARRIVE → CHECK IN → TRAIN

Thank you to everyone who already checks in properly every time.

🥊 TRAIN FOR MORE THAN FITNESS

Combat training isn't just about learning how to defend yourself.

It's a full-body challenge that develops fitness, skill and mental resilience at the same time.

Pads, striking, defensive drills and movement demand repeated bursts of effort while you're also thinking, reacting and making decisions.

🔥 Build cardiovascular fitness
🔥 Develop strength and explosive power
🔥 Improve speed and reactions
🔥 Develop balance and coordination
🔥 Improve movement and mobility
🔥 Build mental resilience
🔥 Learn practical combat and self-defence skills

Your heart rate rises.
Your muscles fatigue.
Your reactions are tested.

And gradually, your body adapts.

At V13 Tactical, we combine physical conditioning with practical combat skills, creating training that challenges both body and mind.

And here's the important bit...

You don't need to be fit before you start.

Training is how you become fitter.

You work at your level, develop your skills and conditioning, and progress from there.

🥊 Build strength. Build stamina. Develop skill.

Whether your goal is improved fitness, greater confidence, practical self-defence skills or simply trying something completely different, there's a place to start.

We have been reviewing the prices of our Academy martial arts classes (kickboxing, boxing, & Muay Thai). We have made the difficult decision to increase the cost of these sessions. We have not had an increase since 2021, however we have had constant increases in rent, business rates and utilities.

From the 1st September these classes will be £10 per session on pay as you go. We will still be offering monthly discounts on classes. The kids classes will be £60pcm for unlimited academy classes, and Youth/Adult £80pcm for unlimited academy classes.

This will mean that when paying monthly, you can attend unlimited Kickboxing, Boxing & Muay Thai classes within the calendar month. Monthly payments can only be paid on the first session of each month.

Little Dragons classes will increase to £7.50 per class.

🥊 V13 TACTICAL AT ROOM13 GYM

We're proud to have V13 Tactical running their self-protection training here at Room13 Gym in Hythe.

These aren't traditional martial arts classes. The focus is on practical, real-world self-protection, awareness, confidence, conflict management and having the skills to respond when a situation goes wrong.

Weekly training includes:

⚫ Women's Self-Defence
⚫ Mixed Self-Defence
⚫ Teens Self-Defence | Ages 11–16

Plus, V13 will be bringing specialist workshops and training events to Room13 as the programme continues to grow.

No previous experience needed and beginners are absolutely welcome.

If you've been thinking about giving self-defence training a go, come down and train with the V13 team.

👇 Full class details are in the shared post below.

YOU DON’T NEED TO BE A FIGHTER.

You just need to be willing to learn.

Most people will never need to fight.

But knowing how to recognise danger, manage confrontation and protect yourself if things go wrong can completely change the way you carry yourself.

At V13 Tactical, we teach practical self-protection for real people and real situations.

Our training includes:

• Situational awareness and recognising potential threats
• Conflict management and de-escalation
• Escape and evasion
• Practical self-defence skills
• Striking, movement and defensive techniques
• Building confidence under pressure
• Learning how to react when something suddenly goes wrong

You do not need previous martial arts experience.

You don't need to be super fit.

And you certainly don't need to already know how to fight.

That's what training is for.

⚫ WOMEN'S SELF-DEFENCE
Mondays | 6:30–7:30pm

⚫ MIXED SELF-DEFENCE
Thursdays | 7:30–8:30pm

⚫ TEENS SELF-DEFENCE | AGES 11–16
Fridays | 4:30pm

We also have V13 Tactical workshops and specialist training events coming soon, where we'll take individual areas of self-protection much further.

Come and train with us.

Build awareness. Build capability. Build confidence.

Sometimes… people just want to come to the gym and do their own thing. 🏋️‍♀️

And that’s okay.

Not every session needs coaching.

Not every visit needs a class.

Sometimes you just need to put your headphones in, follow your own programme, train hard and head home.

That’s what we love about being an open family gym.

Whether you want coaching, classes, a training partner, strongman kit or simply your own space to train, there’s room for you here.

We’re a family-run gym, and there’s always a member of the family on site that you can reach out to, ask questions, get advice from or simply have a chat with.

We've got you.

Train your way. 💪

Just a very small glimpse of the daytime members today 💪🧠

At Room 13 Fitness, we're a family run gym, and that's exactly how we want everyone to feel part of the family.

When you walk through our doors, you're not just another membership number we know your name. We take the time to get to know you, your goals, your challenges, and we're genuinely invested in helping you succeed.

Our community is made up of people from all walks of life. Whether you're a new mum beginning your fitness journey, someone wanting to improve your health, or an athlete preparing for your next competition, you're all training for completely different but equally inspiring goals.

There are no egos here and no judgement in the gym. Just people supporting people. We celebrate every achievement, encourage each other through the hard days, and create an environment where everyone feels welcome.

That's what makes Room 13 Fitness special. Different goals. Same support. One family.
