DAD’S ON THE MAT WEEK IS HERE!
This week we’re celebrating Father’s Day by inviting our students to bring Dad to class!
It’s a chance for Dad to get off the sidelines, step onto the mats and experience what the kids get up to each week. There might even be a few opportunities for the kids to teach Dad a thing or two!
Some of the best memories aren’t made watching from the sidelines — they happen together.
📅 Monday 31 August – Saturday 5 September
👕 Dad just needs comfortable exercise clothes
💧 Bring a water bottle
🥋 Dad can join in any style and any class
And if Dad can’t make it, that’s absolutely fine — Grandad, an uncle, brother, cousin, Mum or another special person is welcome to join in too.
We can’t wait to see everyone on the mats this week!
Bring Dad. Have some fun. Make some memories.

Buddy Week has been amazing so far!
It's been fantastic seeing so many new faces on the mats this week! The smiles, encouragement and friendships being made have reminded us why Buddy Week is one of our favourite weeks of the year.
There's still time to join in! If your child has a friend who's always wanted to give martial arts a try, bring them along to class. They'll be welcomed by our instructors and students and get to experience the fun, confidence and skills that martial arts has to offer.
🥋 Friends train together.
💙 Confidence grows together.
Tag someone who should come along this week! We'd love to meet them.
