News about the Beginners Course October 2013

busyclassWe had an amazing success and nearly 20 new people joined last night,Tuesday 22 October 2013, and we can easily state we are now at saturation point.  While the beginners course will continue as usual for the next 3 consecutive Tuesday and Thursday classes (e.g. 24, 29, 31) we cannot accept any more people until next order. October is notoriously a very busy month but this time we exceeded our expectations.  Depending on how things go we might have a beginners course in November but, more likey, in January.

Please notice: you must join the beginners’ course just if you are a total beginnner. Any previous experience in striking martial arts (kickboxing, muai thai, karate, tae kwon do, kung fu, etc…) is appreciated and will allow you to join without going through the beginners’ course. Please get in touch with us if in doubt.

ARU introductory class 2013

On Saturday 28 September 2013 we will be running a one-off free introductory class for all ARU students.  This will be aimed at all ARU students (members of staff are also welcome though) that would like to try a class and see whether they would like to take up kickboxing as their main sport.  Total beginners are welcome as well as people with previous experience in martial arts.

Arranged at 3:00 for 3:30pm it will last until 5:00pm with a short introduction and demonstration from the instructors, about what kickboxing is and how it works then a full class (no contact for beginners) will be taught, exploring a few of the basics techniques we use.

The ARU introductory class 2013 will be held at the Fenners Gallery at Kelsey Kerridge and all ARU students with own student cards are granted free entry at reception; the class itself will also be totally free.
