Monday 16th to riday 20th – 9am to 3pm. Cost: $125, bo staff: $25

We still need some volunteer parents to help with transport and support for Friday’s bush walk and training…

Exam fee: $40

This is also our excuse for a joint training with the whole club – no fee if not grading – just come along and enjoy the training with everyone.

Requirements for this exam – forward and backward rolls, standing safely from the floor, self defense from strangle on the floor, 5 sword hand combination and usual fitness and improvements on flexibility

At this stage we are looking at $20 per seminar or $100 for the lot which will also come with a branded t-shirt.

This event will be open to all FFA club members and friends plus other martial arts clubs.

Spread the word!

Keep an eye on this website for more details… but if this sounds like a bit of you let us know of your interest either: phone Mark on 021 448 499 or email in mark@fightingfit.co.nz

Fighters, trainers, family support, and helpers on door, food & drink, judges, timekeepers and anyone else I may have missed.

WE will have another in-house tournament at the end of next term, this will be a big one with divisions in sparring, kata, weapons and fitness. There will be winners for each division and an accumulation of points toward a grand champion of The Fighting Fit Academy. We already have a sponsor for the grand champion trophy but we are looking for sponsors for the division trophies.

In preparation for this event, next term syllabus will be baed on competition forms, sparring and fitness with weapon training on Friday night’s kata class. WE hope from here we can start taking a team to outside competitions around the country and even overseas!

Photos will be posted at some stage soon…
