What is Fight Klub ? How did I get into it ?
Fight Klub is a HIGH energy , boxing, combat style class taught to Jungle and Drum and Bass! It is also referred too as ‘healthy raving’. It consists of call and responses, countdowns in time to the music, partner work, laughter and one big fitness family!
I’ve been into Drum and Bass myself since I was 23 , I’m now going on 31. I saw a post advertised on Facebook of a local FK class being run in Islington by Hugh Harper and decided to take myself down there a few years ago. The adrenaline I get from a night out of drum and bass was the same I received from this class! To be able to train to drum and bass , and ‘rave’ whilst training and skanking out.. was a win win for me! It was only until Hugh approached me (as he knew I was passionate about the music and knew I was a trainer), and gave me a push to attend a course to teach it. It made total SENSE to me. Fitness? Drum and Bass? This is my ELEMENT! I first attended the sister work out version of FK called Drum and Bass workouts which is the equipment free version, and got qualified to begin teaching this. Further down the line I still attended Hugh’s classes but now helped support him by being up front with him and continuing to learn from him.
He then pushed me and helped me through on my BAG BOX qualification and got me certified in Fight Klub Bag Box. My classes had been stop and start down to my second pregnancy and other life factors. Now, with my youngest who has just turned 3 , I’m back launching FK BAG BOX, and this time have taken it to WEST LONDON , with CYKL HAUS as our premises. For those that do not know … CYKL HAUS is a fitness boutique based in Devonshire Road W4, which provides indoor cycling classes, Pilates, personal training and more! You can easily find them on INSTAGRAM or download their app to take a look at them.
Fight Klub came about from fitness presenter Troy Dureh, who is well known for his extensive experience in the industry , and plays a big part in helping communities and also is the owner of FIT FAM PRO ( which I have spoke about in a previous post)
Troy approached me personally towards the end of 2020 in the Corona Pandemic, which took me by surprise but had turned out he had been seeing my posts on social media and knew a little bit of my background , and wanted to help give me a push and opportunity to deliver FIght Klub again. He knew about how life had got in the way for me , also being a single mum etc. Now, because of his support and opportunity I’m back now getting ready for our FK launch this year , and literally CAN NOT wait to start regularly delivering these classes.
Whether an instructor or not, I still use FK classes in my own training via the FITFAM platform .. I train with amazing instructors like Hugh Harper, Vic , and Carrie Grant. I get my Fight Klub Fix from live and on demand classes and has helped keep my fitness up through these lockdowns we have faced. You can find my link in my FIT FAM article to sign up for a FREE 7 DAY TRIAL.
Fight Klub also has massive fitness events that take place at places like BOXPARK CROYDON, with live DJs such as Brockie, Nicky Blackmarket and other famous DJs. Once the restrictions are lifted, keep an eye out for their next events because they are definitely something not to be missed! You can also find your nearest class via the CLASS LOCATOR on the Fight Klub website.
For now, I’m busy waiting for gyms and classes to be restored, so I can get down to West London in person and begin delivering this amazing class! If you are from West London, get in touch , and I can keep you up to date with details of our classes! “8 how many many! “
