Kicking butt…

By admin on March 17, 2010

We’ve sponsored London’s premier kickboxing school, The Martial Arts Place, in a punch-and-kick-a-thon which takes place this Friday 19^th March to raise money for Sport Relief. All participants (some only 5-years old!) will attempt between 20 to 30 rounds of bag work, form-fighting, pad work and skipping.  We’re exhausted just thinking about it…
