Warrior Factory Gardiners Square Denholme Gate Road Hipperholme Halifax West Yorkshire HX3 8LL
On the 2nd of May Master Mike McKenzie will be hosting a technical seminar at the Warrior Factory in Halifax. Currently 6th Dan and being assessed for 7th Dan at the up and coming BTCB Dan Grading, Master McKenzie is one of the most experienced Taekwondo practitioners in the UK and the opportunity to train with him should not be missed.
Although Master McKenzie is based in South Yorkshire, he was the instructor responsible for bringing Taekwondo to West Yorkshire. In November 1990 he started a class at North Bridge Leisure Centre. This is where Phill Payne (Head Taekwondo instructor for the Warrior Factory) started his Taekwondo journey.
If you would like a chance to train with Master McKenzie with out having to travel down to his full time studio in Rotherham.
As we are running a seminar for beginners too, there is no reason for anyone to miss out. Call in at the Warrior Factory and reserve your place.
The Kup grade seminar is open to all Kup grades under Red Belt and will be running 14:00-15:30. The advanced seminar for Red Belts and above will be running 16:00-17:30.
This seminar is in celebration of one year since we signed the lease on the Warrior Factory. It’s been a tough year but we are now establishing the Warrior Factory as the place to go if you want to learn quality Martial Arts in the Halifax area.
Don’t forget. Book your place as soon as possible as we only have twenty spaces per seminar.
For those members that have not noticed, the new gym area is now up and running. We have totally renovated the place replacing everything from the walls to the ceiling tiles. We have thrown out most of the old equipment and bought in some new commercial stuff to make the gym area more functional. During the next twelve months we will be replacing some of the older equipment including the treadmills and some of the strength machines.
The best news about the new gym area is that we are only charging an extra £10 a month for current members (paying for their Martial Arts tuition by direct debit). That’s just £2.50 a week for unlimited use! For those parents that are already paying for their children’s Martial Arts (via direct debit), you can have unlimited use of the gym for just £15 a month. Even if you currently have no connection with the Martial Arts side of the Warrior Factory you can still have unlimited use of the gym area, seven days a week for just £20 a month. We don’t have any admin or joining fees and you can start straight away.
The new gym area contains rowing machines, treadmills, exercise bikes, a cross trainer and whole range of strength machines and loose weights. This summer we will also be installing new showers and renovating the changing rooms.
If you would like to use the gym but you have never been in one before, our trained staff will be happy to put you a program together and take you around the equipment helping you get the most from your time in the gym. Many of our staff are fully qualified gym instructors and some are studying for their Personal Trainers Certificate.
Whether you are currently practicing Martial Arts at the Warrior Factory, your children are or you currently have no connection with us, call in and we will be happy to show you around and answer any question you may have.
As of the 18th of January all links with Belmont Finance have been terminated. Belmont and that company taking over from them (Harlands) should no longer be contacting our members. If you have letters from Belmont demanding money, please ignore them.
On the 19th of January I visited the head offices of our new payment company, NEST Management. The NEST team, based in Nottingham are both friendly and professional. I am confident that they will support us in our growth in the New Year.
If you have not done so already, please fill in a new direct debit form the next time you attend our classes.
To coincide with the New Year, we are launching the new Warrior Factory web site. Although still in development, we hope the new site will provide perspective customers with all the information they need to call in and see how we do things.
