Classes include full abdominal workout, circuit training, punching the mitts and paired fitness work.  These are full body fitness workouts.

MARTIAL ARTS PADWORK AND FITNESS

This is a martial arts themed fitness workout. In this class you'll be kicking and punching the kickshields or punchbags.  You also be doing knees and elbow strikes.

The striking techniques (kicks, punches, knee and elbows) are taken from thai boxing and karate.  This is a non contact martial arts class and all strikes will be against the kick shields, focus mitts or the punchbags.

If you want to be lean, then you really need to be looking at doing martial arts training.

MARTIAL ARTS AND SELF DEFENCE

This class will be a mixture of karate and traditional jujitsu.  This class will also use some techniques from judo.  There will be some fitness during this class however the emphasis will be on learning skills. 

You'll be taught throws, escapes, basic groundwork and how to kick and punch.

JUDO AND SUBMISSION GRAPPLING

In this class you'll be doing all the techniques from judo (throws and groundwork + submissions) and you'll also be doing techniques that are not commonly done in judo, techniques that are taken from other grappling based martial arts. 

You'll be taught to do techniques both Gi and No Gi (Gi means opponent is wearing a martial arts suit, No Gi - the opponent may be wearing shorts and t-shirt).  We don't want people to become dependant on the Gi when doing techniques.

PERSONAL TRAINING AT HOME

For the ultimate in convenience why not do your fitness training at home?  Workouts are put together based on your needs and the type of fitness training you enjoy.

Some people enjoy martial arts, others enjoy circuit and some like abdominal workouts.  Many like to mix and match the workouts based on their own needs.
