As we do every year we will be closing all classes for 1-week to give everyone a nice break and chance to recharge the batteries.
To confirm, there will be no classes from Monday, 15th – Sunday, 21st August 2016 (incl.). Please feel free to attend any other locations & classes to make up for any sessions lost over the summer holidays.
See you soon.
The 2015/16 academic year ended with an exciting week of school visits and Martial Arts P.E. lessons.
Monday, 18th saw a visit to The Canterbury Primary School as part of their “Do What You Want” week. Years 2-5 all participated in a fun, self-defence based Martial Arts class – the effort and concentration throughout was exceptional. We are very much looking forward to working with this school even more next year.
Shortly after, we visited Ashford Oaks Primary School as part of the Charles Harris Olympic Legacy Programme. This legacy is designed to introduce children to sports and activities that they would not normally participate in. Congratulations to all the children and staff for their energetic participation.
Congratulations to Aryana Anisi from our Canterbury Adult class who was recently nominated for the Unsung Hero Award at the Canterbury Partnership Sports Awards.
Aryana was nominated for her dedication and commitment to Martial Arts. For 3yrs, Aryana helped at the Blean Primary School Breakfast Martial Arts Club on both Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
Whilst she continues her regular training at our Canterbury School, on behalf of the MF Kent Team and the children at Blean Primary School we would like to thank Aryana for all of her help and dedication.

For the first time we saw Gradings for our colour-belts and senior grades all on one day and it certainly did not disappoint.
Everyone in every class has been working so hard for the last few weeks and it really did show in the level and attitude on the day.
In the morning we saw our hugely excited Mighty Matts show some incredible concentration and energetic drills, much to the delight of Mr Harris our Grading examiner. This was followed by our Juniors and Adults who worked extremely hard – showing the results of some really dedicated training.
After a short break it was the turn of our Panel Grading students (Red-Stripe & above) and it was certainly an impressive performance by everyone. This Panel Grading in particular was one of the toughest challenges our students have faced and we had plenty of sweat and tears, pushing the boundaries of even our most seasoned students.
Each and every candidate gave 100% throughout and it was an absolute pleasure to see everyone achieve what they have.
From our senior students I am delighted to announce the successful promotion to:
Red Belt
Deputy Black Belt
1st Degree Black Belt
2nd Degree Black Belt
3rd Degree Black Belt
