What is it?
Kickboxing is a martial art combining western-style boxing with kicks, knees and elbows. An excellent class for developing conditioning, speed, flexibility, power and co-ordination. A great way to get fit quickly and in a fun way. You can burn a huge amount of calories while striking the pads and working through various fun partner drills. It’s very easy to pick up the basics and from there we will start to develop combinations of strikes on the pads and punch bags. We will look at footwork and evasion in an easy to learn and fun way.

Who is it for ?
This class is suitable for anyone aged 16 years or over. You don’t need to be an athlete to get started, nor do you need to perform high kicks. We can work all our kicks on low targets from the knee down. The material will be tailored for each individual in the class. Whether you want to sharpen up your technical skills or lose weight, this class is for you.
What will I learn ?
In the class you will learn how to operate at long range (kicking), medium range (punching) and close range (knees and elbows). We work on the punch bag and pads to develop our speed and timing. We also work the heavy bags to develop power. The class combines solo drills such as working on the punch bags or working partner drills on the focus pads. This is an upbeat, fun class and is designed to provide an excellent workout while developing practical skills.
