Five children, hailing from all over Belfast, attended the first Baby Boot Camp - set up by Prokick head coach Billy Murray as a test run for future kickboxing students.
Many of Prokick's young stars have been attending the gym since they were born, tagging along with older siblings and parents. By the time they reach six, they are able to join the Prokick syllabus.
However, former world champ Billy Murray felt there was a need to integrate toddlers to the surrounds of the gym, helping them feel more at ease when they begin their first class and first steps into kickboxing.
The enthusiastic youngsters certainly had coach Murray on his toes. He said: "The Baby Boot Camp was great fun, the children really enjoyed it and I was puffed at the end of it after all the running around they put me through!"
If you would like your child to attend the Baby Boot Camp, contact Prokick on http://www.prokick.com or call 028 90 651074.

Hi,
Didn’t realise this was on, or I would have had Drew’s younger brother at it. He loves getting the gloves on while Drew is in class.
Would be grateful if you could keep me posted about the next one.
