"When anger rises, think of the consequences" (Confucius)

Both the John Smeaton and Kippax clubs were established in 1997 with, the Ricall club being established shortly after. At the time, as far as we could see, there were no other clubs operating in the area. The clubs were established so students could learn the art of self defence and they could, if needed, defend themselves against attacks, and, at the same time, have fun learning. We firmly believe that these aims have been achieved because all our clubs have been a great success - as you can see from the length of time that the classes have been running and the increasing numbers of students that now attend our classes.
