International Kickboxing champions come to Bath

Last Friday Bath University Kickboxing Club was honoured to receive coaching from Mr Pixton a fourth degree black belt and international kickboxing champion. Mr Pixton is a respected member of PUMA kickboxing as he has fought and won many fights across England and the rest of the world and is known to be extremely gifted at sparring.

His presence at the club ensured a high turnout of dedicated kickboxers wanting to learn new techniques in sparring. 

 

The gruelling two hour session consisted of an hour of military style fitness and an hour of semi-contact sparring.

 

Mr Pixton gave instruction to the students commenting on how they could improve their technique and gave valuable advice to those fighting in the upcoming British Championships and the Loughbrough Fight Night.

 

Some students were even lucky enough to receive individual advice as their sparring was tested to the limit by Mr Pixtons truly effortless kicks.

 

After the session Mr Pixton showed his appreciation to the kickboxers’ effort and determination by offering 10 of the clubs best fighters the once in a lifetime opportunity of training with his “invitation-only” fight club every week.

 

This was an invaluable session for the club and its many competitive fighters and we look forward to seeing him again in the future.
