Unfortunately, the J.C.I.T. training planned for Sunday, 26th June in Maidstone will need to be postponed.
We have sent out text messages to all concerned and will let you know the new date for your training (the venue will remain the same).
Many thanks for your patience & understanding.
We were delighted to be invited to teach the Yr6 children of Barham C of E Primary School on Friday as part of their activity day. This was a special day organised with the Canterbury School Sports Partnership and gave the children and chance to try new and diverse activities such as American Football, water-based netball (not water polo!) and of course Martial Arts.
Well done to all the children and it was wonderful to see everyone tackle all the challenges like a true Black Belt.
Due to the school holidays our classes will run as follows on Thursday, 2nd June 2016:
Staplehurst Village Centre (North Hall)
See you all soon!
For those students thinking about and training towards the Colourbelt Grading on Sunday, 26th June please note that we have had to change this date.

This week we continued our work within the community with a day of fun-filled & educational Martial Arts classes for years 3-6 at Whitstable & Seasalter Endowed CE (Aided) Junior School.
The school is running a “Try Something New” week with lots of different activities such as archery, music, dance and, of course, Martial Arts.
We taught 6 x 45-min classes through the day and it was great to see every child (and teacher!) getting involved and smiling throughout. Well done to everyone involved.
Whitstable Primary School Spring Fair
Saturday, 21st May 2016
11:00 – 2:00pm
We are delighted to have been invited to attend the first of many Spring & Summer fetes, at Whitstable Primary School – Saturday, 21st May.
We will be running a stand and running demo classes for everyone to join in and have some fun.
Mrs Daly will be running the stand and it would be great to see as many of you there as possible, helping to show all the children and parents how much fun you can have with Martial Arts.
Please contact Mrs Daly / Master Finch to be part of the team for that day.
As part of his Junior Instructor training, Billy Hill from our Staplehurst School, presented his wonderful Community Challenge in class to his fellow students last week.
As part of the course the candidates have to organise and deliver something beneficial for the local community and Billy chose to teach Martial Arts and, more specifically, Stranger Danger to his local Primary School.
Billy planned and delivered all the sessions and learnt a great deal from the day. This takes a great deal of courage and leadership skills and we are all extremely proud of Billy.
Saturday, 7th May saw the MF Kent Team travel to the Loddon Valley Leisure Centre in Reading for the 2016 Southern Championships. These events are always very well attended and contested and this one did not disappoint.
After weeks of preparation and hard work we took a team of 15 and it is no exaggeration to say that each and every member gave their all. We had tears, nerves, laughs and cheers throughout the day and with over 500 people watching the excitement was incredible.
MF Kent Team
Success at events like these can be measured in so many ways. For some success is fighting back the nerves and stepping onto the mat or winning through one round. For others it might be to reach further in the competition than last time or even win a medal. Whichever it is we had a team of winners for sure.
A huge thank you to all our amazing parents, families and friends who came to support with so much energy and passion. The atmosphere and team spirit was fantastic throughout the day and really highlights what a family we are. In addition, thank you to our MF Kent Team Instructors and Leaders for helping, motivating and supporting all day. It was amazing to see our “seasoned” competitors coaching (to great success!) our younger members.
