Kickboxing is a great way to reduce stress, gain energy and get into shape. These classes will assist you with muscular conditioning and increase your fitness in a safe and fun atmosphere.

You will gain greater strength and agility with most techniques using the entire body movement rotating the hip with each kick, punch, elbow and block. On a mental level you will improve your self-confidence, discipline and self-awareness.

The instructor teaches moves using Thai pads, focus mitts, and sparring. Focus mitts are used to teach hand speed, punch / power, timing, defense, and counter-punching. Sparring is used to test technique, skills, range, strategy, and timing against a partner.
