Self Defence
BTEC Level 3 Self Defence Qualified Instructor.
The ferocity and frequency of street crime is increasing daily, so as the police struggle to cope with this new wave of opportunist criminals we need to think how to avoid being next. Most people are turning to self- defence classes to ensure that if the worst happens, they will be able to protect themselves and their property, and we at Rock Solid Kickboxing are offering all ages the chance to learn one of the fastest and most efficient self-defence systems known to modern martial arts. We teach you all the skills of kickboxing and most of all to become aware of your surroundings, to develop your reflexes and reactions to an attack situation.
THE ABILITY TO DEFEND YOURSELF IS IMPORTANT, BUT IT SHOULD BE A LAST RESORT IN TERMS OF SELF-DEFENCE
Training You To Think Before You Act
As instructors we would be wrong to tell you to jump straight in with fists and legs flying all over your aggressor. It is important to be able to fight off an attacker should the need arise, but the best form of self-defence methods are to avoid such situations first and foremost. Assess the threat to you and minimise it
by appropriate non-violent responses, stay calm and do not raise your fists immediately, fold your arms so that they are up and ready to move if attacked. Anything that will help you avoida situation where you have to use your kickboxing skills to defend yourself is important, walk away from confrontation,and find a safer enviroment to be in, do not advertise your personnel belongings and educate your friends to these things too; become a teacher yourself. When all else fails, then the ability to physically defend yourself comes into play. This is when you can open up your locker and use the skills that you have learnt at Rock Solid Kickboxing, but always remember it is better to walk away than confront if possible. A true martial artist would not go out of his or her way to hurt a fellow human being.
Build Strength Through Training!
If you are looking for a great way to define the muscles of your upper body, try kickboxing. Although it may sound like kickboxing is only good for working the lower body, it is actually a healthy, strength-building activity for your whole body. In addition to being a strength- building exercise, kickboxing works the heart muscle and creates an aerobic effect.
Kickboxing has traditionally been thought of only as a martial arts activity, but is becoming an increasingly popular form of aerobics and strength training.

IMPROVE YOUR DIET
As any sport, a healthy balanced diet is important to maintain a healthy body and assist with recovery and muscle growth.
-
STAY DETERMINED
Stay focused, train hard and enjoy the sport. At times, it will be difficult and this will be the biggest test to see if you have what it takes to continue.

PUSH YOUR LIMITS
It is important to push yourself beyond what you feel is possible. You are stronger than you think and RSK will help show you just how strong you are. We will help you push yourself harder.
Build KO Kickboxing Power!
Kickboxing is an intense physical sport and has high demands on the body. There is no denying that. While other martial arts and combat can be draining, and require endurance, no other art is reliant on explosive knockout power as kickboxing training. Grappling definitely requires strength, but it is quite possible to pull off a submission on skill, knowledge, leverage, and finesse, without brute strength.
Kickboxing training has a much higher demand on physical conditioning, because the speed and power of the punch or kick directly determine the effectiveness. RSK will help you build the different physical skill sets you need to develop your KO power as a kickboxer.

Build A Fitter Body Through Kickboxing!
When athletes, especially in kickboxing training, talk about endurance, they usually just say Cardio. It is a different kind of endurance, as it uses the aerobic energy system to keep you running. This is the endurance that is the difference between barely breaking a sweat in your kickboxing training versus gasping for air. You can develop this in a number of ways, and the most common is hopping on a treadmill. Nothing wrong in that, if you’re doing it the right way.
However, way too many people think of just running for 15-20 minutes. That’s a great timeframe, but what do you do during that 15-20 minutes? What’s better? Running a mile in 10 minutes, or a mile and a half in 10 minutes? You’re doing more work in less time. That’s going to keep you at an elevated heart rate, you’ll expend more energy, your heart will become stronger, and you’ll push harder.
