Did you know that there are 6.5 million carers in the UK? 800,000 of them are young carers aged 5-17 years old. Whilst navigating their own life, growing up, attending school and trying to be a kid, they are also caring for another person full time. It is a full-time job that is placed upon young shoulders who sometimes are not offered the rest bite and help they require and need.  

 

Which is why we are excited to announce that we have teamed up with MK Carers to offer young carers free Muay Thai classes at our Safari Health Hub located in Bletchley! 

 

Here at Safari MMA, we are dedicated to helping the disengaged groups, the groups of people who are overlooked and often forgotten about. We want to equip them and support them in as many ways as we can and one of the ways we do this is through martial arts. 

 

We are currently running our Male Young Carers class on Wednesdays at 6-7pm and Female Young Carers class on Friday’s at 4:30-5:30pm.  

 

Our classes are designed to help carers take the mental escape from always being on, available and putting others needs first. These classes help carers to put their physical wellbeing first by enjoying the physical benefits of Muay Thai whilst also putting their mental wellness first and escaping the endless thoughts that flood their brain by concentrating and focusing on the moves and technique required in MMA.  

 

If you know any young carers who would benefit from this opportunity, please contact MK Carers or us! We look forward to seeing you.

 

 

We are super excited to say that we are offering 10 free places to children across Milton Keynes and Buckinghamshire to come and let their inner Ninja be wild!  On this 4 week course they will get to train as real little Ninja’s learning Martial Arts at our brand new Safari Health Hub in Bletchley.

This course is perfect for children who need to burn some excess energy, could do with improving self discipline and focus and to increase listening skills.  At the same time they will be working on strength, coordination, balance, whilst having LOTS of fun learning Muay Thai and Martial Arts.
