New martial arts club opens at Llan Leisure Centre

A new martial arts club has recently opened at Llangollen Leisure Centre.

Llangollen Kickboxing Club meets on Monday nights from 7 to 8pm (£6). 

It is run by Steve Stockdale, a current World Kickboxing Champion who has over 30 years martial arts experience and has fought his way to many titles over the years.

Steve is an additional needs teacher at St Christopher’s School in Wrexham and is also a qualified personal trainer and martial arts instructor. 

Having taught small groups and individuals for many years, he was persuaded by his students to open up the club to others after taking the over-35s kickboxing World Championship in Greece last year.

The club is affiliated to the World United Martial Arts Organisation (WUMA) and students follow a certified syllabus. 

Focusing on fitness, flexibility and sparring, members can also compete and many have already been successful in tournaments around the country.

Steve says the club has a friendly, supportive and positive atmosphere but it is also one where you are pushed to be your best. 

"The doors are always open to new members and if you are interested in more information see llangollenkickboxingclub.co.uk," he added.
