Help our kids get off the street, off their ipods, and computers, and get more healthier and fighting fit. To do this we need sporting gear.

Waikato

Apart from our charitable trust providing outdoor educational programs for the local kids of Kawhia and surrounding districts, we would also like to start an after school fitness class for the kids and adults of the Kawhia community, utilizing martial arts and sporting techniques from many years of experience... We also intend to invite other sporting stars, and martial artists to our club to contribute their knowledge and experience to our members...To start our fitness classes we need training equipment such as: 20 x pair of boxing gloves, 20 x kick n punch pads, shin pads, and skipping ropes, etc...

My involvement is as one of the fight fitness instructors, where I will share my many years of martial arts experience gained over my lifetime, including living and training in a Muay Thai kick boxing camp in Thailand for a year...

About us

The purpose of our trust is to educate and train kids and rangatahi (youth), and in particular, ‘at risk’ rangatahi, in job skills, work ethics, self-esteem and self-confidence, by using the natural environment and culture, to develop respect, appreciation and pride for their hapori (community) and our natural environment, while using outdoor activities as metaphors to explore and improve attitudes, and live out their God-given potential through the challenge of adventure.
