Conscious Combat Club

Conscious Combat Club is a trauma-informed kickboxing and martial arts space in Abbotsford built around safety, inclusion and reconnecting people with their own strength. Created with women and gender-diverse people front of mind, it offers a warm, welcoming environment where participants of all abilities can set their own pace and feel genuinely comfortable while they learn to move and fight with confidence.

The club is known for its structured beginner programs, with small group sessions capped so coaching stays personal and supportive. Members describe coaching that is encouraging, knowledgeable and transformative, and a space that lets them shrug off the stress of the day, settle back into their bodies and finish each session feeling calm and capable. Many start in the foundations or beginner course and continue on into graduate and community programs.

Alongside the in-person classes, Conscious Combat Club runs corporate kickboxing workshops and a teacher-training pathway for coaches and practitioners wanting to deliver trauma-informed martial arts themselves. For people in and around Abbotsford who have always felt that combat sports weren't for them, this is a deliberately different kind of club, one where empowerment, community and self-defence are taught hand in hand.
