The Edinburgh Assassins Kickboxing club meets twice a week at Portobello - and twice a week at Easter Road as well. It attracts dozens of members of all ages - the youngest is just 4! It’s been going since 1993 in the town hall under the auspices of the professional body, IAKSA.
The club was set up by one of its top instructors, Craig Foster.
It has since expanded and now has 2 groups meeting in Portobello and Easter road, both of which
train and fight under the Assassins banner. And the project’s been a great success,
as proved by the number of Scottish, British, European and World champions produced
over the years.
The training focuses on fitness, stamina and skill and is as
popular with women as men. But what actually happens at one of the sessions? We
went along to find out.
