''[[Kickboxing Academy (Film)|Kickboxing Academy]]'' is a 1997 film by Richard Gabai.
 
In this film, students from the titular academy face off against the rival school, Fatal Combat. The reason for that is because the Kickboxing Academy's lease will not be renewed, and the rival school plans to take control of it. Along the way, they also see Danny, a former kickboxer who decided to quit when he nearly killed an opponent. With that in mind, the students must convince him to help them defeat Fatal Combat and its leader, Captain Tarbeck, in order to save their school.

* [[Incestuous Casting]]: Siblings [[Not Another Teen Movie|Chyler]] [[GreysGrey's Anatomy|Leigh]] and [[Power Rangers in Space|Christopher Khayman Lee]] co-starred in the film together as love interests. As a result, they shared three kissing scenes. This caused a great deal of controversy as well as squick.
