About Us
The Verve name, brand and logo we carry today was officially inaugurated on March 23rd 2006 with the successful launch of our martial arts equipment brand. It now plays host to a number of exciting services from equipment distribution to the development of instructors and club owners, competitions, events, seminars and much more!
What is with the retro circles in the logo?
Not everyone notices at first glance but at a closer look you will see the 3 circles making up the lower legs, a larger circle in the upper body containing yin-yang to represent the closed stance arms and a last circle for the head - collectively configured so as to suggest someone bowing and showing respect!
In an industry synonymous with loyalty VERVE is a brand built on a family focus of good quality, affordability and exceptional service, from this - our mission statement and slogan was born!
