Junior Kickboxing South Birmingham & Solihull
Everything you need to know: Junior Kickboxing at Birmingham Martial Arts Centre
Strength. Skill. Confidence. Fitness. Community. All in one place.
We don’t just teach Kickboxing.
We develop confident, capable young people with values that last for life.
Our Junior Kickboxing programme (ages 8–15) provides young people with a fast-paced, energetic way to build fitness, confidence, discipline, and real martial arts skills. It’s an ideal choice for juniors who enjoy movement, challenge, and a more dynamic training style without sacrificing the structure, values, and personal development that parents value most.
Kickboxing improves strength, stamina, co-ordination, focus, and resilience, and at Birmingham Martial Arts Centre, it also builds confidence, self-worth, and character. For over 30 years, we’ve helped juniors grow into capable, confident young adults who know how to push themselves, handle pressure, and make solid decisions.
