Our community outreach work
As well as classes at our full-time marital arts centre, we do additional community outreach
work, providing free demonstrations and workshops for schools and other community
groups, as well as work experience opportunities for local school children. We have been working alongside other community groups delivering sessions for SEND children in Moulsecoomb during school holidays.
We also do focused work with potentially marginalized groups, including a particular focus on working
with people with physical and mental disabilities and refugees and asylum seekers. Some
examples of our community outreach are described below.
If you think we could work together with your organization, please get in touch via our
contact details below.
Our work with schools & community hubs
Our belief is that every child should have the opportunity to experience the mental and
physical benefits that the martial arts (and associated meditation techniques) provide. In
response to the financial difficulties imposed on most state schools in Brighton, we offer free
workshops and demonstrations. We also open these services up to other community hubs.
And in 2018 we raised over £400 for Queens Park Primary School PTA through a sponsored sparring session where one of our instructors did 31x 2 minute rounds with no break in-between rounds and with a different opponent each round.
Examples of schools and community hubs we have worked with recently include:
Queens Park Primary School
Elm Grove Primary School
Middle Street Primary School
Royal Spa Nursery
The Crew Club
The Bevy Community Pub
Brighton Table Tennis Club
