KICKBOXING
Although most fights go to the ground, they start on the feet. Whether you are training for self defense, MMA, or kickboxing, knowing how to strike and deal with a striking opponent is essential. If you are a seasoned pro, or just getting off the couch, our kickboxing classes will make you an outstanding striker. Taught by professional fighters, you’ll learn technical skills in an intense and supportive environment. By combining techniques from Muay Thai, Dutch Kickboxing, and Western Boxing, this stand-up portion of the combat arts is refined into an approach that is beautiful in its effectiveness.
MMA
Mixed Martial Arts
You don’t have to be a professional fighter to train like one. As a fighter, it is not enough for you to have a single set of specialized skills. In our Martial Arts classes you will learn to combine all of these combat arts into a single arena. Not only will you will develop a solid, realistic foundation that satisfies all facets of the fighting arts, but you will learn to blend these skills into a seamless arsenal.
If you want to fight, we can take you as far as you want, including the professional level. As part of our team, we will select your venues, your opponents, and set up your training program, your fight camps, and coach you the night of your event. Individual/Private Training Sessions are also available as well to those looking to take their game to the next level.
WOMEN’S SELF DEFENSE
Traditional Women’s Self Defense classes are ineffective because they generally require the student to recall a complex series of moves in artificial environments. This class incorporates approaches from a variety of systems. It is unique, in that it teaches threat assessment and stresses simple intuitive techniques with the goal of disabling and creating space and from a larger, stronger, and more aggressive opponent. No complex movement, athletic ability, or physical prowess is required.
It is recommended to take the course once a year to stay fresh on the skills you have learned.
The following topics will be covered:
- Proper Mindset
- Criminal Motives
- Hardening Your Home
- Automobile Safety
Students are introduced to physical self defense techniques designed to escape common threats. This is not a martial arts class, but rather a common sense approach to dealing with attempted physical violence and abduction.
Techniques include:
- Hair and clothing counters
- Arm counters
- Choke standing/wall/ground counters and weapon counters
- Closed quarters (vehicles) counters
