Calling all police officers, probation and prison staff, and security professionals.

We're running a free Control and Restraint Workshop at our Newton Abbot academy on Saturday 10th October at 10am.

This is a practical, hands on session covering the fundamentals of control, positioning, balance and body mechanics, built around leverage rather than strength. You'll work through safe, controlled takedowns, how to maintain a dominant position, escaping and recovering from difficult positions, and the core principles for handling aggressive behaviour safely.

Led by instructors with years of experience in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling and MMA, plus extensive work with military and police organisations. No martial arts experience needed, just come in comfortable clothing you can move in, bring some water, and your professional ID.

Places are limited and it's completely free, so get booked in early via www.fightworx.co.uk/controlandrestraint

This workshop covers general principles and isn't a substitute for accredited training.

🔥 INTRODUCING THE FORGE PROJECT 🔥

Community has always been a huge part of what we do at Fightworx.

For years, we’ve worked with local organisations and services, using martial arts to help young people build confidence, discipline, resilience and a sense of belonging.

Now, we’re taking that work a step further. 👊

The Forge Project is a dedicated FWX initiative working alongside schools, local authorities, youth services and other professional organisations to provide structured 1-to-1 and group programmes for young people who can benefit from them.

TRAIN. BUILD. BELONG. PROGRESS.

Martial arts is the vehicle. Building stronger futures is the goal.

This isn’t the beginning of our community work. It’s the next chapter.

👊🏻 THE FORGE PROJECT 👊🏻
FORGING STRONGER FUTURES.
