MARTIAL ARTS FOR BOTH CHILDREN AND ADULTS!

Proaction Martial Arts Raises £5,000 for Mental Health & Education Charities

Charities collecting their cheque award.

Proaction Martial Arts & Fitness is proud to announce that its 2026 Annual Awards Evening raised an incredible £5,000 for two vital charity partners: ServiceSix, supporting mental health in Northamptonshire, and The Amani School (CSPA) in Durba, Democratic Republic of Congo, providing access to education for children in need.

Held on 7th February at Franklin’s Gardens, Northampton, the evening celebrated achievements across our martial arts programmes, including Taekwon-Do, Kickboxing, and our children’s Mighty Monkeys classes. More than an awards ceremony, the event highlighted the values we instil in every student: confidence, resilience, community, and leadership.

Tom and Jas Nicholson, Directors of Proaction Martial Arts, said:

“Raising £5,000 is a huge achievement and reflects the generosity of our Proaction community. Together, we’ve been able to extend our impact far beyond the training mats, supporting both mental health and education initiatives.”

We’d like to thank our headline sponsor, Wilson Browne Solicitors, all local businesses who donated raffle prizes, and every student and family member who attended. Their support directly benefits the lives of young people locally and internationally.

Proaction Martial Arts operates a growing network of clubs across Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and the wider East Midlands, offering programmes designed to develop physical skills while fostering emotional wellbeing.

If you’re looking for martial arts classes in Northamptonshire that combine high-quality training with community impact, sign up today and join a club where your child or yourself can grow in confidence, resilience, and skill – on and off the mats. Other locations have spaces and franchise opportunities are available.

About our programmes

Kids Martial Arts
in Northamptonshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Leicestershire, Oxfordshire & The West Midlands

Many Mighty Monkeys (4–6-year-olds) join us shy and nervous, gripping onto parents and carers as they shuffle into the training venues. But after their first session they bristle with excited energy as their confidence soars with a newfound love of Martial Arts.

Our instructors expertly hold the attention of the class. They make sure every child feels included and at ease. They gain the respect and focus of all Mighty Monkeys through being inclusive, approachable, and creating a fun environment their students actively want to be part of.

Our Mighty Monkeys form friendships that will grow with them as they progress through their martial arts journey. It is the best possible introduction to Martial Arts that any parent or carer could give their child. Our 7yr+, Taekwon Do students work on physical and mental strength. We give our students a safe and fun environment in which they feel they belong, constantly strive for achievement, and develop an unshakeable sense of self-worth."
