Phoenix Martial Arts Wakefield

We adapt where we can for students.

In class we have a few ladies with different health issues. So when they can't do an exercise we change it so they can still join in.

Does this mean they get an easier lesson than others? No. Everyone is working at different levels and all are pushed to work to theirs.

Today's sparring session is all about sharpening our front kick and back kick! 💥

The front kick is fast, sharp, and brilliant for creating space. The back kick? That's all about timing, balance, and landing it with confidence.

Every drill gets us one step closer to becoming quicker, stronger, and more controlled in sparring.🔥

So grab your sparring partner and let’s practise this drill!

POV: You say, "Who's up for a challenge?" and suddenly everyone's moving at the speed of light! 😂💨

Our students don't just accept a challenge, they race towards it! 🥋🔥

Good thing Mr Lafferty has the energy to go back and forth. 😆

🥹 Can we tell you a little secret?

Teaching our Ninja Tykes is incredibly rewarding. 💛🥷

You know why?

Because they listen, they try their best, and they work so hard to follow instructions.

It's those little moments; when they remember a technique, follow directions, or give their best effort, that make us so proud.

Honestly, they make us smile in every single class. 🌟👏

You asked for more? Here you go!

Here's another action-packed clip from the Summer Showdown! 🥊🔥

The sparring, the skill, and the atmosphere were absolutely brilliant and we've still got plenty more to share!

Enjoy! 🎥💥

Rule number one: KEEP MOVING! 😂

Ladies, whatever you do don't let them touch your shoulders! 👀

Keep those feet moving and make them work for it! 🥊🔥

👏 Now that's what we call focus!

A huge well done to Richard for giving their kata their absolute best! 🥋✨

Every movement showed concentration, effort, and determination, and we're so proud of your hard work.

Keep it up, you're doing brilliantly! 💛
