The course kicked off for new beginners tonight at the ProKick HQ in east Belfast and will work through the fundamentals of fitness, elements of self-defence and come up with a diet 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 it’s 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.”
