“Strength is in us all,” says KB Fitness’ video posted recently. Inspired by these powerful words, we invited our members to share the unexpected benefits they’ve experienced through training in the martial arts. Their responses were nothing short of inspiring.
For many, the benefits go beyond physical fitness. Ruth shared how training in the martial arts at KB has transformed her mental wellbeing: “I knew being fitter was generally good for me, but I never expected to notice the boost to my mental health. I even miss it when I don’t train for any length of time. KB martial arts classes benefit everything!”
Confidence has also been a common theme. Ryan described the surprising impact of stepping out of his comfort zone: “Training in the martial arts in the school has really made me comfortable coming out of my comfort zone!” Phoebe echoed this sentiment, saying, “I’ve noticed my confidence and stamina have definitely improved. I actually realised I could stretch and kick higher than I thought because of kickboxing classes. Training in the martial arts is great for realising your potential.”
Neil highlighted how training in the martial arts at KB has instilled a “never quit” attitude, enhancing his persistence both in and out of the dojo: “I’m naturally quite tenacious, but KB has amplified that. I never give up, no matter what the obstacle. Like Ryan and Ruth, I’ve also experienced boosts in confidence and mental wellbeing.”
Kelly FN reflected on how training has deepened her self-awareness and belief: “One of the things I didn’t expect was how much training in the martial arts helped me understand my body and my limits, and to be kinder to myself. The instructors’ belief in me helped develop my inner strength, and now I feel there’s nothing I can’t achieve with determination. KB truly brings our inner strength to the surface.”
For Laura, the benefits have been empowering: “Training has helped me develop inner strength and confidence. Every time I shout ‘STOP!’ in class, it builds that strength and reminds me that I’m empowering and protecting myself.”
In addition to individual growth, our members have highlighted the vibrant, inclusive community at KB Fitness, where people from all ages and backgrounds come together to support and inspire each other to achieve their martial arts and fitness goals.
These testimonials show that training at KB Fitness is about so much more than martial arts – it’s about unlocking the strength within us all and building a better version of ourselves every day.
