Kick Boxing

About Us

UCC Kickboxing Club is the largest martial arts club and the biggest indoor club in UCC. The club operates under KBI (Kickboxing Ireland), and our members have gone on to represent the university at both national and international levels. At our training sessions you can get the opportunity to try continuous and point sparring and also learn useful self-defence techniques.

Here at UCC Kickboxing Club, we believe that kickboxing is for everyone, regardless of experience. Our training sessions are open to everyone, from absolute beginners to seasoned fighters. An average training session starts with some cardio, usually running laps or sprints followed by circuit training. This helps us warm up and prepare to engage in drills which are designed to help develop your fighting skills and expand or improve upon different techniques and styles. To conclude our sessions, usually we use point-based sparing as this gives newcomers a chance to fully embrace what it means to be a member without an increased risk to injury. To finish our sessions, we always do another round of laps followed by some well-deserved stretching! Here you can learn new techniques, improve your fitness, and most importantly make new friends. We try our best to make sure that everyone feels welcome at our club and our social events outside of training and competitions are a great way to get to know the committee as well as meet fellow club members.

We as a club are passionate about giving back to the wider community outside of UCC Clubs and Societies. The UCC Kickboxing Club has always been no stranger to raising money for charity events and this year we are finally returning with new powers! We are very excited to bring back the fun nights with our events and make some great new memories while raising money for those in need! So, whether you want to learn how to fight, get active or simply take a break from college work, come to one of our training sessions and see for yourself the benefits of getting involved with UCC Kickboxing Club!
