Although
training at KB Kickboxing is quite different to the street
fighting system taught at
KB Self Defence,
the Kickboxing classes do provide certain beneficial elements
of self defence:
>
Kickboxing
improves self-esteem. Just by walking taller and more
confidently as a result of training, KB Members become less of
a target. An attacker will always prey on people they believe
to be weaker.
>
Focus pad
training teaches range - knowing where to be stood to land a
punch or kick. Understanding the length of your arms and legs
would help if ever you had to strike somebody in defence.
>
Ultimately
sparring (contact with full equipment) is the best form of
self defence within our Kickboxing training. It teaches the
above range, but with more realistic movement. Your target
moves, therefore you need to move. Plus, because they are
striking you (in a controlled, safe manner), you work your
timing, reflex actions, blocks etc. It's exhilarating.
>
Because your
fitness is pushed to a whole new unique level, even if you're
a regular gym attendee, you'll be best placed to be able to
run away and keep running.
Proper Self
Defence classes are required for each Kickboxing grading, so
that all KB Members are all-round Martial Artists.
