The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide To Kickboxing

"Every Champion was once a beginner"

Are you dreaming about getting started with Martial Arts but hesitant to start? Or you just want to learn the very basics but afraid to go to the gym because you are intimidated by other members who are already advanced?

Are you afraid to try because you think that you need to be good even if its your first time?

We completely understand if you have fears of starting. And to be honest, We helped a lot of people like you. Almost all of them were fooled by this stigma—that you should be really GOOD on your first try.

Truth is, most of the people in the gym started as a novice and probably didn't really know the basic fundamentals.

But as time goes by, and with a lot of hard work, they’ve developed and transformed into a stronger, healthier version of themselves.

You see, if it's possible for them to be a kickboxer or martial artist from being a novice, then it’s possible for you to get the following effects of kickboxing too:

✔️ Learn the basics of Kickboxing from being a complete beginner up to RED BELT

✔️ Boost your Confidence level

✔️ Improve Coordination

✔️ Enjoyable exercise burning up to 1000 calories

✔️ Energy Boost 

✔️ Develop a better posture by improving your core strength 🌟 

All of these, from the comfort of your own home! 

The best part is, this COURSE ALONE consist of equivalent to 6-months of Kickboxing Classes! 

Also, upon completion you will receive a Personal Certificate as a record of your achievement!

Now, if you're a total beginner, and you want to achieve these results, the next best thing to do is to START!


Time is your only ENEMY, my friend.

What our members say about us

Quite unexpectedly I enjoyed it and haven’t missed a beginners class since starting 👌🏼

by Claire Louise Ranson

I am also a beginner and have literally tried every kind of fitness going, I go for a week and get bored, I started kickboxing as my daughter has been coming for years so thought as I spend my life driving to and fro HKA I might as well give it a go.

Quite unexpectedly I enjoyed it and haven’t missed a beginners class since starting 👌🏼🥊 staff are all lovely, classes are knackering and I have seen so much of a difference in all the bits on my body I have been complaining about for the past 20 years (since kids 😂)

Now I feel confident and I'm seeing improvement in myself

by Michael 'Biff' Filler

Couldn't recommend doing this enough!

When I started I was being treated for anxiety and depression, since starting my mental and physical health have seen HUGE improvements.

The staff are incredible, everyone's really friendly and welcoming and you really feel like part of the team. I thought I'd be useless at it, not able to keep up but within the first few sessions that all changed, now I feel confident and I'm seeing improvement in myself and I wouldn't dream of stopping now.

I come out of the lesson absolutely exhausted but I am truly enjoying it

by Matt Small

I'm a beginner and have been 3 times so far. I come out of the lesson absolutely exhausted but I am truly enjoying it.

The staff(s) are excellent and everyone is so friendly and helpful.

Friendly & Supportive teacher

By Casie Pym

Tried my first ever class tonight. even though I was nervous about it, the team couldn’t have been more welcoming.

Carl is a friendly & supportive teacher, the class was fun and energetic, and even as a complete novice I could understand and follow the exercises. Looking forward to starting my Kick boxing journey.

I love doing kickboxing as its a great way to take my anger out, its a great way to meet new people and be in a new environment. I love seeing my family do things they love, I love everybody acts like a family and are so close. I am so happy my parents had me join in as soon as I could walk as I love it and couldn’t wish for anything better. I love seeing new people start, I love seeing how people improve, how they get better and grow. I am so proud of everyone.
