Children’s classes at KBF Academy.

Our Little Ninjas class is tailored for young children, focusing on building confidence, discipline, and coordination. Each 45-minute session incorporates kickboxing basics with fun, interactive games, ensuring kids stay engaged and motivated. With a structured curriculum approved by WAKO, children progress through belt ranks while developing essential life skills such as respect and perseverance. This program offers a supportive environment where your child can thrive physically and mentally.

Structured Learning through Playful Engagement

Our Little Ninjas programme is specially designed for young children, combining kickboxing techniques with engaging activities to boost confidence, self-discipline, and coordination. Each 45-minute class is packed with a variety of exercises and playful challenges that keep kids entertained and inspired. Following a WAKO-endorsed curriculum, children advance through belt levels, gaining not only martial arts skills but also key values like respect and perseverance. This nurturing environment helps your child grow both physically and mentally, providing a positive space for them to excel.

Emphasizing Character Development

At this stage, we place a strong emphasis on character development alongside physical training. Each belt represents not only a new skill level but also a core life value such as respect, discipline, and perseverance. Through consistent practice and positive reinforcement, children learn the importance of these values and how they apply both in class and everyday situations. Parents often notice improvements in their child’s behavior and attitude as a result.

Tailored Curriculum for Optimal Growth

Our age-appropriate syllabus is specifically designed for children aged 4-6, guiding them from their first steps in martial arts all the way to achieving their black belt. The curriculum includes a mix of fundamental techniques and gradually more complex combinations, matched to their developmental stage. This tailored approach ensures that every child can progress confidently, with each new belt marking an exciting milestone in their kickboxing journey.

Creating a Supportive Community

We believe that martial arts is more than just physical training; it’s about creating a sense of community and belonging. Our classes are not just a place to learn kickboxing, but also a space where young children can make friends, build social skills, and feel supported by both their peers and instructors. This nurturing environment encourages children to push their limits and develop a positive, can-do attitude towards all aspects of life.

Brilliant KB club - both my boys look forward to their weekly classes (unlike swimming lessons) and have seen really great development in terms of their skills and confidence in a fairly short time of attending (approx 3months). Coaches are supportive and positive and it's a really good environment for all abilities and confidence levels.

I can highly recommend Kickboxfit to both adults and children. Both myself and my son attend classes here and thoroughly enjoy them. All the instructors are friendly, welcoming and encouraging and are extremely supportive in helping you achieve your goals whether it's improving technique or developing your fitness. Plus their new venue is amazing!

This family run kickboxing club is truely wonderful, they genuinely care for there sudents and do what they can to support, inspire and have fun with them but learn respect and discipline at the same time. We have both been attending for about a year now and it's definitely built our confidence we have both made some new friends and well as kept us fit while working up our belts. I definitely fell more able it defend myself and children. We both absolutely love this club I would highly recommend them to anyone.

My son and daughter (age 8 and 10) go to Kickbox Fit and they both love it. This is a really great club. Very friendly with a number of expert instructors who do a fantastic job of teaching the kids while making the sessions fun. Highly recommend KBF to any parent with children who want to learn kickboxing or any kind of self defence.

My little boy loves it there, all of the coaches and instructors are really helpful and doing really good job! We have tried many different clubs but this one they really focus on children and their abilities helping them to develop their skills! My little one also loves the way they are practicing as it is not repetitive and coaches really have something new to teach them!

KBF is a fantastic community based club, the whole team are friendly and make you feel part of the KBF family in no time at all, it’s a no pressure club and you don’t feel like you’ve got your hand in your pocket all the time paying for every move you make, very good prices and you learn everything in class you need to belt grade without added on seminars at extra cost like the previous club my son attended, the instructors are very tactful and don’t just tell every student how amazing they are just to keep them attending, they always give constructive criticism in the right ways and have massively improved my son’s ability, highly recommend KBF, your kids will get great results from KBF the more efforts they put themselves 👍
