👍 SAYING YES TO GOOD HABITS!

Our martial arts programme is about so much more than learning just physical skills.

Every week, our students practise the habits that help them succeed at home, at school and in life, including listening, focus, respect, resilience and believing in themselves. 🧠

Small habits repeated every week can create enormous changes over time. 🚀

What’s one good habit you’d love your child to develop? 🥋

Fantastic technique from this young student in last night’s class! 👏

Strong balance, a protective guard and an excellent chamber, preparing to deliver our White Belt Stomping Kick with accuracy and power.

It’s a simple but highly effective self-defence technique, practised safely and taught only for use when genuinely in danger.

Our Back-to-School Confidence Programme is now open to new students across York and Selby. Help your child develop confidence, focus, self-discipline and practical self-defence skills.

💥 POWER 💥 was the focus for our Acomb Mighty Matts tonight!

We didn’t just practise powerful techniques, we also practised walking confidently back into school 🏫

⭐ Head held high
⭐ Shoulders back
⭐ Eyes focused
⭐ Speaking with a strong, clear voice 📣

A great reminder to all our students that they are strong, confident and capable! 😁

Recharged and ready to go! ☀️🥋

After our one-week summer shutdown, all classes are back to normal this week! 🥳

We’ll be focusing on building back-to-school confidence and starting the new term feeling strong and positive. 💪

Good luck to all our students heading back to school, I can’t wait to see everyone in class!

What have you done this week that you’re proud of? 💬

Or what have you improved, 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲? 👏

Children are often measured by schoolwork and grades, but development is much bigger than just academics. 🚀

Confidence. 🌟
Focus. 🎯
Creativity. ✨
Physical skills. 🤸‍♂️
Kindness. 💚
Courage. 🦸‍♂️
Leadership. 🙋‍♂️

Discovering something they genuinely enjoy and want to become better at. 🥋

At Matt Fiddes Martial Arts School - MF York we encourage every student to recognise their progress, celebrate the small wins and keep working towards the person they want to become. 📈

And I’ll share one of mine…

This week we welcomed 7 students for their first class, and all 7 decided to join us! My first-ever 100% joining week. 😁🎊

I’m proud of that, but even more excited that seven new students are beginning their own journey with us. ❤️💙

Tonight’s focus was balance, not just staying on your feet, but finding your feet again when life knocks you off course.

Resilience isn’t about never falling.

It’s knowing you can get back up. 💪

𝗗𝗜𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪? 👀

The people your child spends time with can quietly shape the person they become.

The wrong environment can make them 𝗱𝗼𝘂𝗯𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀, 𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲.

The right one can do the opposite. 🫡

🥋 Aim higher.
💪 Keep trying when it gets hard.
🎯 Focus on their goals.
🙌 Celebrate each other's success.
🌟 Believe they're capable of MORE.

That's the environment we're working hard to create in our classes. 👏
