It’s absolutely brilliant to have Megan back on the mats! 🙌

At last year’s inter-club sparring camp with Chippenham Kickboxing Academy, Megan had a complete freak accident during the warm-up. Just 10 minutes before her first fight, she fully dislocated her knee 😱

Instead of stepping into the ring, she spent the rest of the day in hospital.

What stood out most?

Her mindset.

Calm. Positive.... More annoyed that she couldn’t take part than anything else. The rehab process tested her patience, but her resilience and determination never slipped.

The road back wasn’t easy.... She’s now fully recovered, back in our Bristol kickboxing classes… and even spent some time sparring with her dad, and kicking him in the head a few times for good measure 😄💪 (all in the name of quality training, of course!)

Congratulations Megan on an awesome comeback. 👊
