From One Generation to Another – The True Spirit of SN Combat

Experience Meets Youth at the Belvedere Dojo Interclub

On November 14th, two of SN Combat Academy’s warriors stepped into the ring — from different generations, but united by the same spirit.

At the Belvedere Dojo Interclub, Derek from our Croydon Branch, aged 64, made his return to the ring after several years away. Despite the break, his passion and determination shone through as he took part in his 6th Interclub event.

Alongside him was Saxon, one of our talented junior fighters, making his Interclub debut — representing the next generation of SN Combat with energy, courage, and focus.

💥 A Moment That Defines What SN Combat Stands For

Seeing both Derek and Saxon compete side by side was more than just a fight night — it was a symbol of everything martial arts represents: respect, discipline, courage, and community.

It’s moments like these that remind us what makes SN Combat Academy truly special — a place where age, background, and experience come together under one roof, united by the love of the art.

With the unwavering support of Founder Khru Sam Nankani and the entire SN Combat Team, both fighters showcased what it means to be part of one family, one tribe.
