A Brazilian jiu-jitsu expert and a Golden Retriever called Kimmi were special guests at the Polish Saturday School in Ipswich at the weekend.
Alain Pozo, one of the leading jiu-jitsu trainers in the country, met with children at the school to share his top tips on stances and balance techniques.
At the end of the session, Alain rewarded the best students in the group with stripes for their belts.
The children also had a special visit from a Gill, an educational speaker from Blue Cross Suffolk, a charity that rehomes cats and dogs in Suffolk.
She brought along education dog Kimmi to teach them about animal welfare and safety.
The pupils then were given a talk on how to look after their animals and keeping safe around dogs.
Some of the children were shown how to brush Kimmi and later gave her some well-earned treats.
At the end of the session, the school handed the Blue Cross a dog agility bench for the dogs to use at its Ipswich centre.
