Kickboxing with Desapline Martial Arts

For the last couple of terms our pupils have been lucky enough to have kickboxing lessons with Andy from Desapline for their PE lessons.

We have had such positive feedback from both our pupils and Andy. Our pupils love the martial arts sessions and have really got stuck in! Even those that initially were hesitant, are now fully participating in all aspects of the lesson.

The pupils always start with a warm up circuit, 60 seconds on the clock at each station, from battle ropes, to huge tyre flipping. They then work on their footwork, shadow boxing, punch bags, kick pads and then usually, everyone is ready to put their knowledge into action and have a spar with a fellow peer, in a safe and controlled environment.

It’s great that the pupils are being taught the fundamentals of discipline and respect, whilst learning a unique martial art for fitness and self-defense.
