Story

Hello
Myself, and My Brother Michael have finally got our own space to provide martial arts to the local community of Boscombe and the surrounding area. We have been running classes for a while ranging from Boot Camp, Ladies Thai Fit, Boxing, Thai Boxing and Kids Thai Boxing. We will be adding to our time table Ju jitsu, wresting, yoga and in time something that is close to both of our hearts some community classes. We are hoping to help those who may have health issues (mental and physical), confidence issues or people who are just looking to become part of something that feels like a family environment.
We are both qualified fitness and thai boxing instructors and couldn't love what we do anymore. We fully believe in it and believe we are able to help people from all walks of life and whatever background they are from.
We are also hoping to do some more charity work as we have been lucky enough to help an amazing young man by the Name of Leon get a new prosthetic limb by raising funds for him through our work. We have also been involved in other charity events including raising money for Lisa Hopkins who was suffering from terminal Cancer and we were helping to make her time left as comfortable as possible. Unfortunately she has recently passed away.
We have been lucky enough to find a great property located in the heart of Boscombe and we have completely renovated it but as it is an old property we came across a lot of horrors! This unfortunately ate into a lot of our budget. The £5000 will get us new equipment such as bags pads, mats, lockers, mirrors, benches, storage etc. and cover some of the money we had to spend on renovations.
Anyone who trains with us or has done previously understands what and amazing atmosphere we create in our gym and what fantastic people we have working for and with us. We are incredibly lucky to be able to call all instructors and clients friends and we are 1 big family.

We are so looking forward to our new venture and making it work and making a difference in our community. Boscombe unfortunately has quite a bad name for itself in the Bournemouth area. But we want to show people that there are some amazing places people and opportunities there that can make a difference. To show kids they have somewhere to go where they are welcome and can learn an art which will help them with discipline confidence and fitness. and show adults its never too late to start a journey that can make a difference
