This year, we launched our first women-only Sanda Kickboxing and Self-Defence class at Shaolin — a powerful and supportive space where women can train, grow, and feel strong.

We believe it’s important to create an environment where women feel safe, respected, and encouraged to push themselves. Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) is a dynamic martial art that blends striking, movement, and self-defence. Perfect for building physical and mental resilience.

Led by Sifu Martine, the class is designed to be welcoming, beginner-friendly, and empowering.

“It’s not just about fighting,” Martine shares. “It’s about confidence, connection, and learning to trust your body and your instincts. Women deserve to train without pressure or judgment, just support and strength.”

Since launching, the class has been slowly growing, with students of all fitness levels coming together each week. Whether you’re looking to build confidence, learn self-defence, or just get a great workout. This space is for you.
