DEVELOPING CONFIDENT YOUNG MEN
Meet Oliver Barden, 2nd Degree Blackbelt. Training now for 9 years and aged 16. Young people have enough to deal with with the challenges of this day and age. However keeping to the basics of developing a strong character in self confidence, self esteem and self respect sets them up to navigate the modern world with a clearer focus and determination. They become their own independence of strength. We are proud of our young men in our Juniors and Teens proud and what they are becoming.

Plenty of cardio this morning with interval training. A good blast to wake up the soul and body. Then it was outside to take a few minutes with the sunrise.

WHEN DECADES COME TOGETHER.
When you add up the individual years of each who attended this morning, it’s somewhere around 240 years worth of experience. Individual characteristics and skills of each contribute and blend into one style that's evolved into how we move and train today. Connected to my traditional beginnings from 1975 and blended with the influences of time. Sessions like this morning become the place of where we are presently, on the way to where we want to be. Much respect and an enjoyable session with these guys. James Sheedy

FRIDAY CONTACT NIGHTS 🥊
Best way to end the working week, and they’re getting good and fit.
MEET HAILEE
Hailee is 17 and holds the rank of Brown Belt with us. She's an excellent example of what our young women can achieve. Hailee trains hard and I often see her helping others on her own initiative. Strong capable ladies are confident in any situation. She represents our Gym which has over 50% Women membership.
