⭐ 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗔𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮 & 𝗦𝗲𝘁𝗵 ⭐

Every student has their own journey... and every success story starts with taking that very first step.

When Amanda first brought Seth to TKBA, she hoped he'd enjoy learning a new skill, make friends and grow in confidence.

Since then, she's watched him develop in so many ways.

🥊 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲.
🥊 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁.

🥊 𝗕𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀.

Hearing feedback like this from our members and parents means everything to us. It's why we do what we do.

Thank you, Amanda, for trusting us to be part of Seth's journey and for sharing your experience. We're incredibly proud of everything he's achieved so far, and we can't wait to see what comes next! 👏

If you've been thinking about trying kickboxing, this is your sign to come and see what TKBA is all about.

Keep going, Ava!

Skills are built in class—and tested when the moment comes. 🥊

Charlie and Jake are putting their training to use in the ring. This is where focus, control, timing and respect matter as much as the technique itself. Great work from both of them.

Good coaching is more than demonstrating a technique. It’s knowing how to make it click for the person in front of you. 🥊

Here’s Coach James sharing his knowledge with Junior Warrior Joey. Time, attention and clear guidance help young students understand what they are doing and why.

Double the smiles, double the celebration! ⭐⭐

Lexie and Ava are proudly showing their TKBA rewards. Our stickers are one way we recognise the effort, enthusiasm and good habits students bring into class. The joy on their faces says plenty.

Well done, both of you!

The basics are where progress becomes visible. 🥊

Jake put in a top effort at his latest grading, working his core techniques with focus and determination. For him, it was his best grading performance so far—and a brilliant example of what steady practice can do.

Well done, Jake.

⭐ 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗢𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿-𝗝𝗮𝗰𝗸 & 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗲𝘆 𝗕. ⭐

Watching young people grow into confident leaders is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do at TKBA.

Oliver-Jack and Charley B. have both worked incredibly hard throughout their martial arts journey so far, showing dedication, perseverance and a fantastic attitude every step of the way.

Now, they're not only continuing to develop their own skills, but they've also progressed into our Junior Leadership Academy (JLA), where they're helping to support and inspire the next generation of Little Samurais.

Whether it's welcoming nervous new starters, demonstrating techniques, encouraging younger students or simply being positive role models, they're already making a real difference.

Leadership isn't about being the loudest person in the room...

It's about leading by example, showing kindness, earning respect and helping others to succeed.

We're incredibly proud of both Oliver-Jack and Charley B. for embracing these responsibilities with such maturity and enthusiasm. Their journey shows exactly what's possible through commitment, consistency and a willingness to keep learning.

A huge thank you to their families for their continued support and for allowing us to be part of their journey.

Who knows... today's Junior Leaders could be tomorrow's instructors! 🥊👏

Well done, Oliver-Jack and Charley – keep inspiring those around you. The future is looking very bright! ❤️

The warm-up is part of the training, not just the bit before it. 🥊

Our Teens & Adults group prepares the body with movement and gradually increases effort before the main session. It also helps everyone switch focus from the day outside to the work on the mats.

Move with purpose. Train with focus.

Real people. Real progress.
