BRITISH KICKBOXING COUNCIL
Collectively the Martial Arts are the biggest participation sport/leisure activity in the world and Kickboxing, in all of its many forms, is fast becoming one of the largest spectator sports as well, with a recent high profile event outdoing the NFL Superbowl in terms of viewing figures. "Here in the UK there are roughly two million of us and that number is consistently going up. The British Kickboxing Council is set to become the official national governing body for the sport here in the UK and will soon re-form as the Council for Combat Sports, incorporating the British Wrestling Association, UK Muay Thai Federation, the British Grappling Association and more. In addition, our Chairman is set to become the first Vice Chairman of the World Congress of Combat Sports, which will be chaired by the Executive Director of the World Congress of Martial Arts, a branch of the World Congress of Amateur Athletes. One of our many goals for the sport is to raise the profile of our professional events and to increase participation and overall standards of coaching at our grass-roots level. Opportunities are available for sponsoring hundreds of competitors, events, our new Level 3 BTEC Diploma in Martial Arts Instruction and Club Coaching, which is one of the only qualifications of its kind in the world, and we're still searching for an over-arching Official Partner. One such event, planned for 2013 at the O2 Arena, will be the first ever World Combat Sports Championships". Contact: David Jenkins. Tel.: 07891292629. E-mail: david.jenkins@gbmaa.com.

THE ALAN WINNER ACADEMY
"We are looking for a sponsor. The Alan Winner Academy was established in 1985. It is a sports academy teaching the discipline of Chinese Martial Art with classes from Monday to Friday 4.00pm to 10.00pm for all ages. It currently has about a hundred students. Given the number of years, we have become an integral part of our local community in Acton, Chiswick and Ealing. Through his teaching Alan provides much needed guidance to youngsters from underprivileged backgrounds, to adults who are dealing with personal or physical problems and to the general public - it's a great way to stay healthy. But also Alan provides the highest level of coaching to make the selection for the national team. For the past twenty-seven years we were based at Acton Swimming Baths, where we had exclusive use of a small but lovely training room. Although this room was half the size of a competition area, we still managed to get numerous first places in the British Nationals, third and fifth in the European Wushu Championships and twelfth and seventeenth in the World. As from December 4th, 2011, our training room at Acton Swimming Baths will no longer be available to us as they are closing the centre for redevelopment. We have finally found a location which would be perfect for the Academy to continue. Now we are faced with the question of how to fund the new place. It is a scouts' hut on Popes Lane put up for sale by The Southfield Trust. The location is on a main road, so it would quickly become a local hot spot. We are determined to keep the tradition of The Alan Winner Academy alive as it is unique in its field. There is no other place in the world that combines all the different disciplines: Meditation, Chi Gong, Tai Chi, Wing Chun kung fu, Shaolin Kickboxing (Sanshou), Wushu International and floor gymnastics under one roof. And Alan, having reached the stage of Grand Master at the age of fifty-four has a wealth of knowledge acquired since the age of eight when he started in the competitive world of swimming". Contact: Alan Winner, Founder. Address: Acton Swimming Baths, Salisbury Street, London W3 8NW. Tel.: 0208 995 7717. E-mail: alanwinner@thealanwinneracademy.com.

ARNIS ANGELS
The Arnis Angels are an all-female stick fighting team, the only all-female team in Europe. The team was started in September 2010 by Abi Steady and Jo Hicks, with the aim of creating an environment that welcomes women into the sport. The team of eight put in an outstanding performance at the WEKAF (World Eskrima Kali Arnis Federation) national championship, where all angels medaled. "We have now been selected to fight for the GB team - in Poland in July and then the World Championships in the Phillipines in 2012. We are currently trying to raise money to get us to Poland. Having already raised £1,000, we are looking to raise a further £2,000 to get the team of eight to Poland. Can you help?" Jo Hicks. Tel.: 07505 116226. E-mail: headsandlegs@yahoo.com.
