Childrens Fitness
An increasing trend in obesity in children is a concern for everyone. Statistics from the UK National Child Measurement Programme (2006- 2007) indicate that the prevalence of overweight/obese children that are aged 4 – 5 is 22.9%. A study published in the British Medical Journal in 2007 found that among 11 year old children the rate was 31.6%. Apart from a poor diet the major cause of obesity in children is inactivity. To get children active, they must find any activity fun and enjoyable. One such activity is Teamcombat.
If you are a teacher and are interested in bringing Teamcombat to your school, contact Paul to arrange a demo. Note the maximum class size is 20. Paul will provide all the necessary equipment, including the use of gloves, pads and kick shields. He can also provide a music system and a head mic.  |  |
What is TEAMCOMBAT?
Paul has obtained a license from Fitclub to bring this programme into schools and community centres.This is a martial fitness programme for children and teenagers aged 6 -16. The programme uses exciting fast-paced music, great routines and drills with kick shields, boxing gloves and pads. Children experience the benefits of a martial arts programme without any physical contact. It has similarities to BODYCOMBAT, but brings in the use of pads, gloves and kick shields. Games can be added to the routines for younger children. To ensure that Teamcombat routines stay fresh and exciting, Fitclub will be providing Paul with brand new music and lesson plans each term.
