Beginners received their first taste of the sport with Mr Paul Gordon and then with Billy Murray. Over the next six-week students will work through the fundamentals of fitness, elements of self defence and if that is not enough the Prokick team will come up with a diet plan for those serious about getting in shape.

“It’s time to lose those extra pounds and get fit,” said Murray. “At ProKick we have a long reputation for taking everyone who comes through the doors and finding a regime that is right for them. We've trained world champions and those keen on burning off a few extra pounds.

It’s a fun way to get healthy and its open to absolutely everybody. "Kickboxing isn’t just about getting into a ring – it’s a great way to get in shape and stay in shape.”
