Our Health Ethos

Our Health Ethos

The UKKFF is solely concerned with functional fitness, which means being fit to perform a particular function. To understand this, let us look first at the function for which we are training.

Our goal is not aesthetic fitness, body-building, or competitive success within a tournament-based martial sport environment. Instead, our goal is to help our members to become fit for life, to gain and maintain an excellent level of personal health & fitness for as long as possible.

The following pages explain more about the concept of Functional Fitness:

In-Class Escrima Workshop

On Thursday 8th March 2012, we will be running a special in-class Escrima Workshop at UKKFF Kingston-Upon-Thames.

This event will take place between 20.00 – 22.00 during the usual Thursday evening Escrima General Class, and is open to all members who are currently studying Escrima with us.

The workshop will be led by Instructor Wayne Tappin 3TG, and will focus upon giving more detail upon the core syllabus of the Escrima Concepts Weapons System in preparation for the end-of-term assessments a few weeks later (on 24th March).

There is a £10 charge per-person for this workshop, which will reimburse Wayne for his tuition, his petrol, and his time in driving the 250-mile round trip from Clacton to visit us.

This fee may be paid in cash on the evening, or ideally in advance via debit/credit card using our event pre-booking service, which will save us time on the day.

We look forward to seeing many of our Escrimadors along at Kingston for a good session with Wayne.
