WEYMOUTH and Dorchester DMA Kickboxing schools enjoyed a masterclass in Thai boxing from champion boxer and Channel 5 commentator Sandy Holt.
Ronnie Thompson, another experienced Thai boxing instructor, accompanied Holt, who himself won two British titles and the European title during his distinguished career, as both travelled down from Bolton to teach the martial art in a special seminar.
The students attending the showpiece enjoyed a superb workout and lesson on boxing, kicking, clinch work and the notorious knees and elbows that has made the sport famous throughout the world as well as becoming the main striking art used by the mixed martial arts community.
Weymouth coach Nick Bale, who organised the event, was delighted.
He said: "Sandy and Ronnie had an enormous wealth of knowledge that was appreciated and enjoyed by everyone.
"We are all very much looking forward to the next time they come down."
