Kicx Martial Arts

Looking for something positive for your child? 🥋

At Kicx, martial arts is the fun part — but what we're really passionate about is helping children develop Focus, Skills and Belief.

We want children to become better listeners, grow in confidence, learn self-defence and, most importantly, believe in themselves.

We've put together a short video that explains what we do, shows you some of our actual classes and explains how our Champions Experience trial works.

💪BE PROACTIVE, NOT REACTIVE!🥋

One of the most important things we encourage in our students is the ability to be proactive- don’t wait for things to happen, take action and make things happen!

Whether it’s in training, school, at home or in everyday life, being proactive means looking ahead, taking responsibility and making positive choices.

Martial arts is about so much more than learning techniques. We’re helping our students develop confidence, discipline, focus and the mindset to take action.

Keep pushing forward, keep challenging yourself and most importantly, be proactive! 🔥💪

🥋Black Belt class- Tuesday Night!🔥

What a session! I put our Black Belts through some difficult combinations on Tuesday, and they were looking great!💪

It’s fantastic seeing so many of our higher grades getting involved in the Black Belt class now too- and from all different ages. It really shows the commitment and dedication across the club.

Keep up the great work, everyone! 👏🥋🔥

🥋Last week’s Weekly Move: Hammer Fist! 💥

What a fantastic class last week!👏

Everyone worked hard on their hammer fist, and it was brilliant to see the whole class holding the correct stances, staying focused, and really putting their technique into practice.

There was a great deal of focus on show in this class- exactly what we live to see!💪

Remember, we don’t just teach martial arts. We help our students build focus, confidence, discipline, respect and character along the way.

Well done everyone- keep up the great work!🥋🔥💪

🥋This Week’s Focus: PRINCIPLES

At KICX, we teach much more than kicks and punches.

We teach life skills. We teach our students how to become stronger, more confident, respectful and responsible people- both inside and outside the dojo.

This week, we’re focusing on PRINCIPLES

A principle is a rule or belief that helps guide the way we live and the choices we make.

Our core message this week is:

👉”If I follow the right rules, things get better”

That applies to martial arts, school, friends, family life, and eventually the workplace.

When we follow the right principles:
👉we learn to keep going when things get difficult
👉we learn to treat others with respect
👉we learn that better choices lead to better outcomes

The goal isn’t just to raise great martial artists.

It’s to help raise great people.

And sometimes the most important lessons we teach aren’t about how to throw a punch…

They’re about how to become the best versions of ourselves. 🥋❤️

This week, let’s remind ourselves: “if I follow the right rules, things get better”

PRINCIPLES AND VALUES: WHY DOES THE ORDER MATTER?

We often hear people talk about having strong values—but principles and values are not quite the same.

Principles show us the right way: honesty, kindness, fairness and respect.

Values are the things that matter to us: family, friends, learning and sometimes winning.

Winning may be important to a child, but the principles of honesty and fairness teach them that cheating is never the right way to achieve it.

That is why we teach principles first in our Champions Character Programme. Strong principles provide the foundation children need to make better choices—even when doing the right thing is difficult.

Watch this short video to hear me explain the difference.

Principles show us the right way.
Values tell us what matters.
Character is choosing the right way—even when it is difficult.

What principle do you believe every child should learn?

Character Comes First.

What are PARADIGMS?🧠

A paradigm is simply the way we see, understand and interpret the world around us. It’s the mindset or perspective we use to make sense of what’s happening.

Think about a glass of water that’s half full. One person might say, “It’s half empty,” while another says, “It’s half full.” They’re both right- they’re just choosing to focus on different things.

At KICX this week, we’re looking at how our paradigms can shape the way we think, feel and respond. We can’t always control what happens to us, but we can work on the way we choose to look at it.

We want to encourage a positive mindset- looking for opportunities, possibilities and what IS going well, rather than automatically focusing on what’s wrong!

A small change in perspective is a BIG difference!

🥋What a fantastic start to the new term!🥋

Here a quick little photo from our first Under 4’s class back- and they looked GREAT

Everyone’s standing brilliantly in their left guard stance, showing amazing focus and discipline. Proud of how they did🥊⭐️

A massive well done to everyone who trained on our first week back. It’s been fantastic seeing so many familiar faces back in the club and watching everyone get stuck back into training💪

Now it’s a brand-new week, and we’re looking forward to seeing even more of you back in training🙌

🥋A great start to the new training term!🥋

After a well-earned summer break, it’s fantastic to welcome everyone back at the dojo this week and getting back into training, and growing together.

A big well done to everyone who trained yesterday- especially on the very first day back!👏 It takes commitment and determination to get back on the mat after the holidays, and you should all be proud of yourselves.

The quote I’ve taken a picture of, which I’m sure you’ve all seen many times, really sums up everything we’re trying to do with Champions Path.

Every time one of you steps onto the mat, you’re learning more than just how to kick and punch🥊. You’re building your confidence, discipline and resilience without even realising it. Sometimes simply having someone to believe in you helps you realise what you’re actually capable of!

So here’s to a new term, with new challenges, and helping everyone discover just how much potential you have🥋💪

LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!
