Dorking Freestyle Kickboxing Academy (FKA)

Kickboxing blends striking techniques from boxing and Muay Thai, giving us modern kickboxing.

Kickboxing quickly became a top martial art, mixing karate strikes with boxing punches and Muay Thai kicks and clinches. It’s great for fitness and mental discipline, so anyone can join in.

At Dorking Freestyle Kickboxing Academy (FKA), run by Jack, they stick to both karate and kickboxing roots. The club started as Dorking Karate Kai in the early '80s and shifted to Dorking Freestyle Sport Kickboxing (DFSK) in ‘93. By 2023, it became the Dorking Freestyle Kickboxing Academy (FKA).

You’ll find FKA at Priory School in Dorking, Surrey. It’s an independent club welcoming everyone from complete beginners to seasoned martial artists, ages 3 and up. They run four weekly training sessions for different skill levels, mixing modern kickboxing with traditional karate techniques.

FKA is all about diversity and inclusivity. Jack and his team treat everyone with respect, no matter where they’re from or their abilities. Their instructors are dedicated to helping students improve their skills and fitness.

The club focuses on respect, discipline, and integrity. Respect means bowing to teachers and fellow students as a sign of readiness. Discipline is pushing yourself in every class, both mentally and physically, to reach new heights. Integrity is being honourable, sharing knowledge, and upholding strong morals.

Want to try it out? FKA offers a free trial of three types of classes for a week. Whether you want to get fit, compete, or learn self-defence, they’ve got you covered. Reach out to Jack and the team at 07852 529028 or DorkingKickboxing@gmail.com.
