Wednesday May 20th 2015
Week 5: The sparring class was on the penultimate week. Started off warming up just boxing at range then mixing it up with body boxing head contact allowed and on to full contact style NO low point kicks. Next week will be the finale of this beginners sparring course and everyone will have the opportunity to take part in a 2 x 1 minute round ring exercise that will be a step up from your normal classes but will still be kept to a safe contact level, same time next week!
Wednesday May 13th 2015 - was, week No.4 of ProKick's new kickboxing sparring course. Just 2 people down on last week session. The class kicked off with another quick chat from head coach Billy Murray, he explained the some members were to spar inside the ring and have a chance to step it up another level albeit still in a controlled situation. The first eight were set in motion all spending 2 rounds in the ring each under full-contact rules and when finished another six set off to achieve the same. Girls will have their chance next week on week No.5 and the conclusion will be the finale on week SIX when everyone will complete the same on the end session. Well done all so far!
Week 3 -Wednesday May 6th 2015 - and it was week No.3 of the brand new ProKick kickboxing sparring course. Just 4 people down on last week session. The class also had a few fighters from the 7pm class but they all worked completely separately from the new beginners sparring class. The class kicked off with a quick recapping on what was accomplished over the last couple of weeks. More combinations skills were tough along with counters to kicks.

Great first night! Everything slowed right down and stripped back to the importance of the jab, footwork and slipping to evade. Who knew that learning so much would mean being so sweaty?!
