MARTIAL arts masters will be demonstrating and passing on their pulse-raising skills in Lancaster this weekend.

A 'Free to Fight' activity day is being held at The Red Rose Martial Arts Centre on St George's Quay, on Sunday from 10.30am to 5.30pm.

This event is free for anyone aged 16 or over and will feature activities ranging from watching high performance hand-to-hand combat demonstrations to working with instructors in hands-on activities.

There will also be an opportunity for locals to battle it out on custom made 'Fightstations' and test drive Playstation's latest game Tekken 5 to win a selection of prizes at the event sponsored by Playstation and the British National Martial Arts Association.
