Hi everyone

So that's the holidays over and it will be great to see everyone back tonight. I hope everyone had a good holiday.

I have a few things to bring up tonight but I will post it here so everyone can see it.

We are a community club and we provide affordable classes for the Brechin community, but a lot of people are unaware that we exist, so intend to be really proactive with advertising

I have ordered a big poster that's going to be put up on the front of the building and I've also ordered 50 fliers that I'm going to distribute around some of the shops. I will be going to ask of some of the kids can kindly take some fliers to leave at their school (if they allow it) , that would be really appreciated. I have used my own money to buy these so it's important that as many people see them as possible, so please don't leave them lying in your bags 🤣

Also please try and encourage people to come along. I may even promote a "bring a friend night ". I could do a deal, if you successfully bring a friend along....no Burpees for a month 🤣

I'm also going to be organising a sponsored fundraising event for the club, obviously the extra income will help keep the building running and allow us to buy new equipment and stuff.

The event will likely be a sponsored fitness session, or "How many kicks can you do in a certain time" . I will have to think about it, but I'm open to suggestions. Whatever we decide to do will be filmed and uploaded to Facebook as evidence and for more noteriety.

And finally, now that the holidays are over I am hoping that more people can start attending the Sunday class at 1pm. It's open to all juniors and adults, but people from blue belt and above will really benefit from the extra training. Also I am giving my free time to provide the class, so as many people as possible would be great. I fully understand people having other commitments, but I would like see as many people as possible. 😁

I apologise for the length of this of the message and I hope none of you fell asleep while reading it, but I wanted to pass on this information to parents and students

Thank you 🥋

Hi everyone, I have decided to share my experience within fitness and martial arts training so perhaps people can gain a greater understanding of these mean to me.

Name : Michael Duff
Role in club: Fitness Coach /
Martial Arts Instructor

I have lived in Brechin all my life and for the past 26 years or so I have been involved in martial arts and general fitness.

I'm currently employed at a local fruit and vegetable merchants and steward at a local sports club.

As a child I was very quiet, suffered with social anxiety and confidence issues. As I grew into a young adult this developed into depression and I decided I wished to combat these problems as well as Improve my general health and fitness, so I joined a local Tae Kwon-do club.

I found this to be incredibly helpful as it improved me both mentally and physically. I view this as a huge positive turning point in my life.

My general fitness and confidence improved over time, and I began to develop a passion for both martial arts and fitness in general. It was around this time that I started regularly attending classes at my local gym.

My career in tae kwondo progressed and after 5 years I was eventually promoted black belt. Something I remain proud of to this day. I began coaching the children and adults with in the class and I found that passing on the knowledge and skills to other people was highly rewarding. This was something I hoped to do for years to come.

When I was in my early 30s I developed an interest in joining the police force, so in order to gain experience I applied for a college course entitled "Access to Uniformed Services" I found this course to be another huge turning point in my life and found that my physical fitness was increasing further. After completion of the course I applied for the police but was unfortunately unsuccessful, though I did manage obtain a security licence and began employment within that industry, I remained in the security sector for 9 years and took great pride in the fact that I was able to help people and keep them safe .

The college course, however, further fueled my interest in the fitness industry, so i was fortunate enough to be able to return and take part in "NC sports and fitness" and laterly "HNC health and fitness".
Both of these courses helped me further my knowledge of fitness and how to teach other people. I feel that I was given a lot or support and tuition from all of the staff involved in these courses. Something I'm highly greatfull for.

I currently still training in martial arts at The BEST Defence in Arbroath, as I am always keen to learn new things and I assist in coaching some of the classes there with my instructor Mark Davies. I also train myself regularly with kettlebell routines, Circuits and jogging.

A few years ago Brechin and Forfar Boxing club and Brechin Kickboxing Club kindly asked me to become involved within their group , a position that I readily accepted, I hope that with their help I can help people reach their goals and I can help spread awareness of fitness and healthy lifestyle choices within the community.

I strongly believe that taking part in regular fitness activities can help improve mental health along with physical. This is something I have personally experienced and I hope I can help other people.

Tonight we had our grading and this is genuinely one of the best gradings we have ever had.

Everyone passed, multiple people achieved either an A Pass or a Plus pass, even some of the higher grades which is absolutely amazing.

Well done to everyone, you all trained so hard (especially in this heat) , absolutely amazing

Kelly in the WhatsApp group chat has a picture of each student receiving their certificate, please message her in the group if you would like the photo

Thank you to Mark Davies at The BEST Defence

Well done to Callum Doherty for achieving a particularly difficult fitness session, today

We first did some kettlebells, and he then managed to do 100 press ups , in stages (it genuinely was his request to do this). So that was very impressive

Then , just to finish off we did a 1 mile run to work on cardio training

Well done Callum. Fantastic work
