COMPETITIONS
CLICK HERE FOR TOURNAMENT RESULTS!
Once students have developed
competent skills, tournaments can be entered. Competing can be
exceptionally rewarding and satisfying; it is such a
challenging experience.
|
There are two styles of tournaments in existence which KB
Kickboxing students could enter - 'point scoring' and
'continuous'. Though full contact tournaments exist,
semi-contact is much preferred as the safest and most
enjoyable. KB Kickboxing's lessons are not full
contact.
KB Kickboxing
students are encouraged to compete. Just entering a
competition is an achievement in itself; it is a new found
experience, something to learn from and cherish.

Even if a
trophy is not taken home, overcoming the fear and anxiety to
take part leaves an overwhelming feeling of self worth and
achievement. Winning is all of the aforementioned - yet
the intensity and delight is multiplied by 1,000,000!!
Here are some
comments from KB Squad Members:
"Thanks
again for the support yesterday, it was a real buzz getting my
first trophy.
As always, I love being part of
the squad - we're a proper team and we bring a certain class
to the tournament; respectful, professional and our clean
technique shines."
"Thanks for yesterday, was
really cool to go and watch everyone both our guys and other
schools in all disciplines.
The whole
experience was amazing.
I was also so proud to be part
of your school which seemed to be the most supportive,
controlled and well mannered there!"
"Had to write
after today's brilliant competition. Had a lot of fun, but
more than anything walked away feeling so proud to be a member
of your school - it was really nice to know that I
belonged to a school which has respect at its heart and such a
great ethos, and to feel part of such a great team. It was
fantastic to be able to cheer everyone on, and to be part of
the whole experience. I also really appreciated your calming
advice both before and at the competition. Its made me
determined to train even harder. Can't say enough how much we
all value you! Thank you!"
