KBF martial arts academy

At KBF, kickboxing is only part of the journey.

What we are really building is a community. A place where children grow in confidence, adults improve their mental and physical health, and friendships are built through hard work, support, and shared goals.

From the first lesson to black belt… from nervous beginners to national champions… everyone is treated as part of the team.

We are proud of the environment we have created together — supportive, disciplined, welcoming, and driven.

Whether someone joins to get fit, gain confidence, compete, or simply be part of something positive, there is a place for them here.

That is what KBF is about. 🥊❤️

💥Advanced grading💥

Well done to everyone who did their blue, purple, brown and brown with black stripe gradings. Truly exceptional again, with fantastic technique and determination shown throughout.

Every belt higher gets tougher and tougher. Keep on pushing everyone. We are all proud of you.

🥋Black belt achieved 🥋

We are delighted to announce that Rosa Rich has achieved her black belt over the weekend.

Rosa has been coming to classes at KBF for 4 1/2 years as a complete beginner and has shown immense dedication throughout with regular attendance to classes, becoming part of the fight squad and competing at national competitions. Over the last year, she has focused on her black belt and has been attending 3 sessions per week including a black belt session, and has been helping in classes. That is dedication and an example for others of what it takes to achieve a black belt with us.

Well done Rosa. You join the small group of people who have achieved a black belt with KBF. We are all very proud of you. 👏
