Kick-boxing is being introduced, by popular request, at Cynergi.

Evening classes will be run every Tuesday at 7.30 pm, as from 6 February, by Master Noel Mercieca, Dan Black Belt and European champion.

Noel is fully qualified to join the team of fitness experts at Cynergi.

He has been training in this martial art since the age of 12, and has been coaching for the last 10 years. “I have plenty of experience and love this sport.”

Asked whether he considers kick-boxing to be a sport or a form of art, he replied: “Like judo and karate, kick-boxing has its roots in Eastern martial arts.

However, kick-boxing is a creation of the USA, where the movements of martial arts have been fused into the actions of a boxing match.”

Noel is proud to say that last year, his students won eight gold medals in the National Championships and seven of them won European titles in October 2006.

This augurs well for the people who will be joining his classes at Cynergi.

His teaching system definitely bears fruit – discipline and self-confidence.

Kick-boxing is not only a great workout but also great fun!
