Classes Sat, Sun & Mon…. BJJ & Boxing Foundations Start this Week!





Morning guys,

We are kicking off today with our morning conditioning class. Frances has planned a lovely session: 3 x 4 min AMRAPs, then 8 x 2 min boxing combos and core work to finish off… Just a little heart-starter to get you ready for the day!

Sifu’s in for the 10am Wing Chun class, which is followed by 11.15am with Damo for the all ages Junior Martial Arts Program.

Sunday we have 9.30am BJJ and Monday is 12.15pm Wing Chun, 4.15pm JMAP under 10’s, 6pm Wing Chun, 7pm Sparring and 7.15pm Wing Chun Foundations.

Mayur has planned for the late Monday class a continuation of Chi sau fundamentals, with transition from cross arm to bon sau and exploring with front kicks. Finishing off with forms instalment 2.

This week we are beginning the BJJ Foundations classes on Tuesday night after boxing at 7.15pm, this allows for boxing to run over and time for sparring. Thursday night after BJJ is the Boxing Foundations class starting at 7.15pm and likewise allows for BJJ to run overtime and rolling.

Hope to see you at one, some or all of these sessions!

See you on the mat,
Red Boat Team

Sparring Clinic, Chi Sau and Bil Gee Strikes – All on Today!

Morning everyone!

We hope you are all well and as dry as you can be.

Frances is continuing her Sparring Clinic theme for todays lunch time Wing Chun class – everyone is getting great results so make it in if you can.

Sparring is light and breezy for your first grading, then we start to increase the pressure from level 3 onwards. So working on your technical sparring skills is highly recommended.

Tonight at 6:30pm Vadim is teaching forms as part of the warm up. The main theme is chi sao rolling and basic applications from last week. We will also look at introduction to bil gee strikes. Sparring at the end (bring your 16oz gloves).

For anyone prepping for your level 7 belt or tips for level 7, or you’re not there yet but wondering what lay ahead, bil gee strikes are part of your level 7 grading assessments. Additionally, you begin getting assessed on chi sau as of level 3 in the way of chi sau drills, eventually leading up to double arm chi sau from level 5.

Classes today:

12.15pm Wing Chun (Sparring Clinic)
6.30pm Wing Chun Kung Fu

Classes Saturday:

9am Conditioning
10am Wing Chun Kung Fu
11.15am Juniors All Ages

See you on the mat.

Kids Grading Date. BJJ Schedule Tonight.





Morning all!

Parents please note that the Juniors grading will take place at the end of term on Saturday 9th April at usual Juniors Saturday class time of 11am. The grading mentioned yesterday is for our adult students which is on 19th March at 10am. Because of the time required to facilitate a grading, we move the Juniors class to an early start of 9am on Adult Grading days.

So Juniors grading is at the end of term on Saturday 9th April 11am.

I’m loving March’s description of tonight’s 6pm BJJ class!:

– Terrifying cardio/strength warm up
– Revision of last week’s Kimura sweep options from closed guard/or as a response to guard pass attempt.
– King of the Mat (closed guard)

I’m not quite sure what a terrifying warm up would look – or sound like – but I’m sure it will be fun session as always.

Classes today:

4.30pm Junior Martial Arts Program (JMAP) Over 10’s
6pm Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Starting next week 7.15pm: Boxing Foundations

Friday classes:

12.15pm Wing Chun Kung Fu (Sparring Clinic)
6.30pm Wing Chun Kung Fu

See you on the mat!

Thanks for the feedback! Todays classes and more…





Thank you everyone so much for your feedback yesterday!

Looks like a BJJ Foundations class on Tuesday nights at 7.15pm is a solid go ahead. Boxing Foundations on Thursday nights at 7.15pm looks to be a maybe – but we’ll give it a run and take it from there. If you haven’t voted yet please do so asap! As it will give us a clearer idea of what you want and when you want it. And if you know anyone not yet a member that would love to get started let them know as these might be the classes to help them on their way.

Implementation to timetable will be early March. Specific date to be confirmed.

Yesterdays BJJ class covered some basic attack/sweep flow drills from guard and a slightly more advanced flow drill, holding a Kimura lock from guard to sweep options to submissions set ups. If you want to dip your toe in the water Thursdays and Sundays are the BJJ days to do it if you are not a regular already.

Tomorrow lunch is a Conditioning workout and the 2nd instalment of sparring foundations including finishing off with a few rounds of sparring.

Friday night class will include Forms as part of warm up, cross arm to double arm chi sao (rolling and basics) sparring small gloves (clinch takedowns) and cool down with forms.

So two classes – but a packed day.

Friday:

12.15pm Wing Chun (Sparring Clinic)
6.30pm Wing Chun

Saturday:

9am Conditioning
10am Wing Chun
11.15am JMAP – All Ages

See you on the mat!

Wing Chun Wednesday! Foundations BJJ and Boxing?





Morning all,

Today we’re starting with 12.15 Wing Chun with Frances who has planned Sil Lum Tao. Chi Sau and a technique from each level depending on whose in. Chum Kil and if time left 1st and 2nd sets Wooden Dummy.

BJJ and Boxing Foundations

We’re looking at trialling a 4 week program to set up new members/students in good stead for all the disciplines we offer with foundations classes in Wing Chun, BJJ and Boxing. We currently already have Wing Chun Foundations classes. We would be potentially adding a Tuesday night BJJ Foundations class and a Thursday night Boxing Foundations class, both at 7.15pm and set tp run for 45 mins.

These would also be great classes for current members to drill down on your foundations.

Current students on a 12 Block or Unlimited membership would have access to these classes as part of your membership. If we average 6 or more per class then it would be a permanent addition to our timetable.

So, who’s interested? And if you’re interested, would it be an every week class you would make or just on the odd occasion or somewhere in-between?

Please simply just reply to this post or email if it’s a yes, tell us boxing and/or bjj and state “often”, “sometimes” or “rarely”.

Thanks in advance for your feedback!

And if you have a friend who would like to try this martial arts thing, please forward this email or tag them in this post! 

Classes today:

12.15pm Wing Chun
4.15pm Under 10’s JMAP
6pm Wing Chun
7pm Sparring
7.30 Wing Chun Foundations

Thursday Classes:

4.30pm Over 10’s JMAP
