Every kids kickboxing session is carefully structured to build fitness, technique and confidence. Here's what a typical class looks like:
Equipment hire is available at the gym for first-timers. Wear comfortable, breathable sportswear — shorts or tracksuit bottoms and a t-shirt. Bare feet or trainers are both fine for kids classes.
Our kids kickboxing classes are open to children aged 5 to 15. Classes are grouped by age so your child will always be training with peers at a similar level and development stage.
Absolutely. Our classes are non-contact and fully supervised by qualified instructors. All techniques are taught with safety as the top priority, and children only ever spar on pads — never against each other without full protective equipment and instructor oversight.
Completely fine. We welcome total beginners and our instructors are experienced at working with children of all abilities. The first session is free so your child can try it with no pressure or commitment.
Kids kickboxing builds confidence, focus, self-discipline and social skills alongside physical fitness. Many parents tell us their child's behaviour, concentration and self-esteem improve noticeably within weeks of starting classes.
The first session is completely free. After that, classes are £10 per session on a pay-as-you-go basis, or £45 per month for unlimited classes. There is no joining fee and no long-term contract required.
Competition is entirely optional. Children who wish to compete can do so from around age 8 with parental consent. Our instructors will let you know when your child is ready and guide you through the process — there is never any pressure to compete.
