my kid has just got in the welsh team and is going to the world kickboxing championship in dublin in october I used to box to keep fit and watch ufc for the last 6 years and my boy started watching it with me he likes the iceman chuck liddel and he is a kickboxer so he wanted to do
Never really watched UFC, but I am a purple belt, 5th kyu, in shotokan karate and every fortnight we do 'Pit' training - Chuck Liddell's training regimen, it is great for strength and stamina. We also do escrima (Filipino stick fighting) every fortnight as well, really cool
As well as being great exercise, karate is great for kids' discipline - seeing the way some hyperactive kids come in and are much more focused after a month or two is amazing. It is also great for self-esteem and general motor skills. I would certainly recommend all parents take their kids to karate.
