___________________________________

Warrington Kickboxing Studio runs children’s martial arts classes weekly, and does not allow any children under the age of 16 to compete, at all, with training geared towards fitness andf self-defence applications.

During training at Warrington Kickboxing Studio, all of our members, children and adults alike, must adhere to strict safety conditions, and wear protective equipment consisting of Headgear, Bodyshield, Arm-guards, Shin-guards, and padded Gloves that are double the standard in padded weight, (being 16oz as opposed to 8oz).

Further to this, although the children are wearing headguards, children are never allowed to have any head contact at all during their martial arts training.

Unfortunately, Thai-Kickboxing does not have a national regulatory body that every school must conform to as a mandatory requirement, and many schools choose to not follow any of the aforementioned basics.

Some Instructors even advocate children competing to professional standards, without any protective equipment and allowing full-contact knockout blows to the head, as seen in Thailand. Again, this must be stressed that this is not supported at all by Warrington Kickboxing Studio.

Warrington Kickboxing Studio operates to the highest of safety standards, and is one of the countries leading martial arts centres due to this. Warrington Kickboxing Studio also conforms to a leading regulatory body, working with the Amateur Kickboxing Association of England ( A.K.A. ).

The A.K.A. , is working towards the ideal of developing Kickboxing as a potential future Olympic sport. The Olympic Style Rules, ( O.S.R. ), used for the Olympic sports of ‘A.B.A.’ Boxing and ‘W.T.F.’ Taekwondo ( a kicking martial art/sport ) are the basis for the ‘O.S.R.’ Kickboxing format, where 'players' compete in a sport for points wearing complete safety equipment, as opposed to 'fighters' looking to defeat an opponent by aggression.

Additionally, as with Olympic Boxing, should a player be losing a match the points scoreboard, a contest is stopped early due to the ‘Outclass’ rule. This further enhances the sport as a game, rather than a sensationalised fight, that players can safely compete in.

On the Warrington Guardian’s newspaper website, should you run a search for Kickboxing ( not Thaiboxing ) you will see several editorials on Warrington Kickboxing Studio's members representing their town and country on A.K.A. events under O.S.R. rules.

Should anyone wish to discuss further this subject, please contact the school director, Neil Holden, either by email through the Warrington Kickboxing Studio’s website or by telephone on 07973-43-18-18.
