The second in the series of ‘PROKICK SAYS’ children’s competition day was another successful night at the Prokick Gym in Belfast .
Even more underage talents took part in the sequel event aimed at improving fitness, discipline and co-ordination.
Capital F for fun was the aim of the day which also gives young kickboxers an opportunity to experience competition using their kickboxing and martial art skills.
A Prokick coach Fran Spence said: “Our ProKick Kids are not allowed to compete in full-contact type fighting until they are 15 years of age. So, from the age of five they are learning the art of kickboxing but without the contact level yet still learning the true values of the the real thing - kickboxing.
“We wanted to give the young members an opportunity to practice, mixing competition with fun. The idea stems from a game Mr Billy Murray invented which we all have played for many, many years at the gym, Prokick Says, our version of Simple Simon Says.
“ Everyone is a winner and everyone goes home with a medal. It’s important to us at Prokick Gym that children learn about self-discipline, self-defence and grow up in a respected and disciplined environment, our motto is Truth discipline& respect these are three key watch words which we try in instill to all our member.”
The Prokick Says fun day now take place once a month at Murray's Wilgar Street gym in east-Belfast.
Young members also get a chance to mingle with world champion kickboxers Gary Hamilton and Lydia Braniff, as well as photo opportunities cherished.
