🥊 AMP PARENT CLASS – WEEK 2 TONIGHT! 🥊

Last week was a brilliant start — and tonight we’re back for Week 2!

Our AMP Parent Class is all about giving our parents the chance to train too. No pressure, no need to already be fit and no martial arts experience needed.

🔥 Improve your fitness
🧠 Switch off and reduce stress
🥊 Learn some new skills
👥 Train alongside other academy parents
💪 Have some fun and feel great afterwards!

The hardest part is often just walking through the door for that first session. Once you're in, we’ll look after the rest.

⏰ TONIGHT – 7PM
🙌 All abilities welcome

If you missed Week 1, you can absolutely still join us tonight.

Your kids train to become stronger, more confident versions of themselves… now it’s your turn! 👊

🥋 NEW VIDEO SERIES – Self Defence for gradings

We’re launching a brand-new video series covering all the grips and grabs you need to know — from your very first grading right through to Black Belt. 🥋

Here is a look at the first video, with the rest of the series being added soon to The Black Belt Academy App very soon.

Each video will break down the techniques clearly, giving students the opportunity to:

👊 Practise the correct grip or grab
🥋 Understand the key technical details
📈 Prepare for upcoming gradings
🏠 Revise what we teach in class at home
🎯 See how the techniques progress as you move through the grades

Our goal is to give every student another tool to help them train smarter, practise with purpose and take responsibility for their own development.

🎥 Watch the first video now — and keep an eye on the app as the full series is released!

🥋 SANCHIN SPECIALIST TRAINING — FREE ADULT SEMINAR

📅 Sunday 13th September
⏰ 9:00–10:00am
💥 COMPLETELY FREE — ALL ADULT GRADES WELCOME

Sanchin is one of the most important kata within Goju Ryu Karate and plays a fundamental role in developing the body, movement and principles that underpin our karate.

This special one-hour session will give us the opportunity to slow Sanchin down, explore it in greater depth and understand why we practise it — not simply how to perform it.

🥋 During the session we’ll focus on:

• The movements and mechanics of the kata
• Correct Sanchin stance and posture
• Coordinating breathing, movement and tension
• Developing stability, structure and control
• Understanding how Sanchin helps build a strong foundation for the rest of our Goju Ryu
• Shime testing — looking at how we test the stance, posture, breathing and structure while performing the kata

Sanchin translates as “Three Battles” and sits at the heart of Goju Ryu. The principles developed through its practice influence so much of what we do — from our posture and breathing to our power, stability and ability to remain composed under pressure.

This isn’t about simply getting through another kata. It’s about developing a deeper understanding of the principles that can make all of your karate stronger.

Whether you’re relatively new to Sanchin or you’ve practised it for years, there will be something to take away from this session.

And importantly…

💙💛 THIS SEMINAR IS COMPLETELY FREE TO ATTEND.

No seminar fee. All adult grades are welcome.

Come along, train together and spend an hour exploring one of the defining kata of Goju Ryu.

TRAIN. UNDERSTAND. BUILD STRONG FOUNDATIONS. 🥋

🥋 **REFER A FRIEND. GROW OUR ACADEMY FAMILY.** 💙💛

We believe the best people to help us grow our Academy are the people who already know what makes it special — **our students and families.**

We want to train alongside more **positive, like-minded people** who share our values and want to become stronger, more confident versions of themselves.

And we’d love your help finding them!

⭐ **HERE’S HOW OUR REFERRAL REWARDS WORK:**

👥 **REFER A FRIEND**
Invite a friend to come along and experience a class with us.

🎡 **THEY TRAIN — YOU SPIN!**
Once your friend completes their first class, **you get to spin our prize wheel and win a FREE prize!** 🎁

🔥 **THEY ENROL — YOU TRAIN FREE!**
If your friend subsequently becomes a member of the Academy, **YOUR NEXT MONTH’S TUITION IS COMPLETELY FREE!**

It really is that simple.

This isn't just about growing student numbers. It's about building an Academy filled with great people and creating a community where **students and families encourage each other, train together and help one another become better.**

So, who do you know who would fit right in? 👀

Tag them below, speak to one of the team, or invite them along to experience what we do. 🥋

💙 **Help us grow our Academy.**
💛 **Train alongside people you enjoy being around.**
🥋 **And get rewarded for helping us build an even stronger community.**

**REFER. TRAIN. REWARD. GROW.**
