The boys from the pop band The Vamps join Anne-Marie for a karate lesson. She takes them though a warm up, some kicking and punching, then a game and a sparring session that threatens to get out of control!

It’s radio presenter Roman Kemp’s turn to learn some moves from Anne-Marie. He sounds worried when she mentions “nunchucks” and “knife defense”, but he just isn’t taking his lesson seriously, and keeps distracting her. Eventually she suspects he’s done some karate before, and maybe isn’t such a complete beginner.

Anne-Marie shows us a section of a “Kata,” a series of defensive moves designed to fend off multiple attackers. Then she applies these techniques with Alex playing the role of the attacker as she demonstrates a part of the “Bunkai.”

Anne-Marie has fun teaching pop star Olly Murs a kick and a block to defend from that kick. Then he tries his hand with the nunchucks, but proves to be more of a danger to himself than to anyone else! Overall, he’s very good, and almost gets top marks for his first day of karate.
