Introduction

Everyone’s Fight is Unique

Becoming a kickboxing athlete, representing Team Blue Blood (Tek’s international, high performance team) or becoming a World Champion are not the only goals on this journey. Your fight may be weekly sparring classes, attending sparring workshops or participating at Tek Competition events. The Athlete Pathway is for any Tek Student who enjoys the competitive aspects of the sport and wants to step outside of their comfort zone.
