Club History
Our Putney school first opened its doors in September 2009, originally offering General Classes in Kung-Fu only. However an extra practice session in Escrima was added in July 2010 for our existing members, as the first step to building a full weapons class at this venue.

Putney was the second school to be opened by our instructor Joe Jackson-Taylor, who has studied martial arts with Sifu Lee Paul Heron since 2002. He became an assistant instructor for the UKKFF in 2006, and opened his first school in Richmond-Upon-Thames in 2008. We are very happy to have such an able, dedicated practitioner represent us in the Putney & Hammersmith area, and we are proud that this club is exhibiting steady growth as local students take advantage of the excellent instruction now on their doorstep.

Come & Join Us
Our Putney club welcomes students from many surrounding towns including Hammersmith, Barnes, Fulham, East Sheen, Wandsworth and Roehampton. If you’re within reach and want to know more about real martial arts, come & give us a try for 4 weeks, completely FREE. You’ll find us friendly, relaxed, happy to share knowledge, and experts at what we do. Welcome to the UKKFF.

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.
