Rooted in the teachings of Muay Thai, our kickboxing builds from the basics of hitting and kicking and expands into sparring and advanced offensive and defensive strategies.
Kickboxing Clinic
This class focuses on Muay Thai kickboxing, but also places a strong emphasis on improving the techniques that form the foundation for our Krav Maga and MMA systems.
Muay Thai is known for its extreme conditioning. The classes normally begin with an intense warm up which include jumping rope, shadow boxing and other bodyweight exercises. Thai Pad, focus mitt work and drilling with a partner follows to develop coordination with power, timing and speed. The offensive techniques that are drilled include punches, kicks, knees and elbows both outside and inside the clinch. We cover the basics of impact, movement, and body positioning, then delve into more sophisticated combination attacks and defenses. We also spend time perfecting defensive covers, movement, and counters. You will also learn how to hold the various types of pads utilized in most of the classes, and how to be a good partner when working with other students.
This class is perfect for everyone as beginners gain their core technical fighting knowledge while more experienced students can really hone their skill set and learn more advanced techniques.
Combat Fitness
Emphasizing the use of plyometrics, calisthenics and kickboxing for an intense interval-training workout, this is the ultimate cardio-vascular class! You'll be using the heavy bags and/or pad training in conjunction with a partner, although no contact is involved. This is a pure cardio workout and you'll experience a different class every time you come, so you'll never get bored doing the same old routine. No more running in place on the treadmill!
