Welcome to the home of Kickboxing here in Scarborough North Yorkshire. We are a friendly, local martial art club run by instructors with many years of experience in many different martial arts styles. The youngest age we can accept new students at is 8. Our members currently range in age from 8 to 49. Some of our older members are actually the fittest and most technically competent so ages is no barrier to learning martial arts! WAKO GB & N.I. started in 1979, was passed to Tom Hibbert in 1982 and in 2012 to Peter Edwards. WAKO is the SPORT ACCORD recognised World Governing Body for Kickboxing. WAKO GB & N.I. is also active on the International scene with members and associated members in over 110 Countries. WAKO GB & N.I. is controlled by an Executive Committee with a President, a Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and members.
It is our aim at EKS to take martial arts to the next level improving fitness, confidence, self defence in a very friendly environment. Lessons vary each week so one week we might concentrate on fitness, another week self defence and another week it could get technical with fancy kicking and punching combinations or we might just mix it all up in one lesson!
