Eleven-year old Amber Halls certainly packs a punch – and a kick!

The youngster returned from the ISKA British Championships in Birmingham recently, clutching a silver medal, after success in the Under-37kg category.

Amber, who trains with Ipswich Kickboxing Academy on Tuesdays and Thursdays, is now eligible to compete at next year’s ISKA World Championships in Spain.

The Northgate High School pupil has only been involved in kickboxing for two years and is also a talent at other martial arts, holding a black belt in karate.
