First classes make people nervous. That is completely normal.

So here is exactly what happens when you walk in for the first time at K*k Sool Won™ of Erith.

You arrive at Erith Leisure Centre. Someone will greet you. No uniform needed for your first few sessions, just comfortable clothes and bare feet.

Classes begin with a formal bow in, then a warm-up that is thorough without being brutal, then technique work at a pace that makes sense for beginners. You will not be thrown in at the deep end.

The instructor to student ratio is no more than 1 to 10, so you will get real attention and feedback.

By the end of the session, you will know a few basic stances, strikes, or blocks. You will probably ache in places you had forgotten about. And if our experience is anything to go by, you will want to come back.

Message us if you have any questions before your first session. We are always happy to chat. 🥋

Our first demonstration from Erith Made festival was our black belts performing the sword form.

Well done to our new black belts, who are still learning this form, but were still keen to perform it (genuinely - they asked to do it). That takes bravery!

Our second demonstration at Erith Made festival yesterday. Everyone, from white belt to Master, performing our foundational form, Ki Cho Hyung.

It's a difficult form to learn, with most students taking at least 6 months to learn it. That requires patience and lots of practice from students.

And once you've learnt it, it doesn't stop there. More practice is needed to refine and improve the movements and strikes.

One of the things parents notice first at K*k Sool Won™ is the bow. 🙏

Every class starts and ends with it. Students bow when they enter the training area, bow to their instructor, bow to their training partners.

It looks formal. But it is really just a habit of respect.

What is interesting is what happens off the mat. Parents regularly tell us that their children have started being more polite at home, more patient with siblings, more willing to help out without being asked. The respect they practice in class travels with them.

This is one of the less visible things about martial arts that does not always make it into the social media posts. But it might be one of the most important.

If you would like your child to experience that kind of environment, we offer two free taster classes with no pressure to commit.

Message us to book their free class and come and see it for yourself. 💪

September is just around the corner.

After a summer of holidays and late nights, many families start looking for something to give their children a focus heading into the new school year.

K*k Sool Won™ of Erith classes are back on Monday and Wednesday evenings throughout September. Children's classes run from 5:35pm, and our teen and adult sessions start at 6:35pm. All at Erith Leisure Centre.

If your child has been curious about martial arts this summer, now is a brilliant time to try it. September is always one of our favourite months on the mat. New faces, fresh energy, and the chance to be part of something that builds real confidence.

We offer two completely free taster sessions to every new student. No pressure to sign up until you are sure it is right for you.

Message us to book their free class and we will get you sorted before September starts. 🦸‍♂️

Most people don't realise that weapons training is part of K*k Sool Won™. 🦸‍♂️

Jool B**g (that’s the Korean term for nunchaku), staffs, swords. They are all part of the traditional Korean martial arts curriculum, and students start learning weapons at blue belt level.

But it is not just about the weapons themselves. The real learning is in the focus, coordination, and self-control that weapons training demands. You simply cannot swing a Jool B**g without paying attention.

This is what a regular class at K*k Sool Won™ of Erith looks like once students start progressing through the belts. It is one of the things that makes this art genuinely different from most martial arts schools in the area.

We have spaces available in our children’s classes for ages 7 to 12. First two sessions are completely free.

If you have a child who would love to try something like this, message us to book their free class. See you on the mat! 💪
