1,000 Kicks for Yorkshire Cancer Research

At Yorkshire School of Martial Science, we're always looking for ways to challenge ourselves, support our community, and make a positive difference. This month, we're combining all three as we take on our Summer Side Kick Challenge in aid of Yorkshire Cancer Research.

From w/c June 8th, every student across our club will complete a minimum of 1,000 side kicks during their classes, creating a huge collective effort that will see hundreds of thousands of kicks performed across all our locations. It's a challenge that will test determination, endurance, and martial arts spirit—but it's all for a fantastic cause.

Cancer affects so many families across Yorkshire and beyond. Yorkshire Cancer Research funds vital research, prevention programmes, and early diagnosis initiatives that help improve outcomes for people across the region. By supporting this challenge, you're helping to fund work that can make a real difference in people's lives.

Our students are ready to put in the hard work, one kick at a time. From beginners to black belts, everyone is getting involved and contributing to the challenge. The effort, discipline, and perseverance shown by our students perfectly reflect the values we strive to teach every day in our martial arts classes.

We're asking friends, family members, local businesses, and supporters of the club to get behind us and help us raise as much money as possible. No donation is too small—every penny and every pound brings us closer to our fundraising goal and helps support the incredible work being carried out by Yorkshire Cancer Research.
