And now the time had come to put everyone out of their misery, and to contribute towards putting the art back into martial arts. And the Golden Belt couldn't have picked two better people to demonstrate Golden Belt Hardcore. A man and wife team and also Chief Instructors of Reigate Kickboxing Club, Mandy and Steve Cullen who have been involved in martial arts from juniors.

And now to Golden Belt Hardcore, what is it and why will it help martial arts and those with an open mind? As opposed to those filled with negativity, the small minded people who do not like change which seems to be rife within martial arts at the moment. Change is why we are here today.
