Home / Classes / Kick Boxing
Our kickboxing class is designed to give students a blend of both sport martial arts and self-defense applications, plus an overall awesome workout. With a strong emphasis on the basics and building proper technique, students of all levels can participate comfortably and know they will be improving their skills while also getting into great shape. Training sessions include a combination of shadow boxing, rounds on the Thai bag, pad work, speed work and calisthenics.
Muscle mass burns more calories than body fat. This means adding lean muscle to your body through weight training, isometric, or body weight exercises will help you burn extra calories while resting. We make strength training a key part of our program at 1-2 Kickboxing, so we can help you lose weight and build the strong sculpted body you’ve always wanted.
It takes a healthy dose of endurance to be a great kickboxer, and at 1-2 Kickboxing, we train like kickboxers. By coaching you through round after round of punches, kicks, and plyometrics, we’ll take your cardio game to the next level. Our high intensity interval training (HIIT) exercises will get your heart rate up and keep it there. We promise you won’t find a more fun way to do cardio.
Flexibility in kickboxing is about more than being able to kick high. Good flexibility can help increase and maintain overall mobility. It’s also important in preventing injury, strengthening muscles, and protecting joints. At 1-2 Kickboxing, we use a combination of dynamic stretching and PNF stretching to help our students develop flexible muscles quickly.
The faster you move, the harder you’ll hit, and the harder you’ll be to hit. Training for speed through explosive movements like plyometrics requires your muscles to contract quickly and with intensity, strengthening the muscle fibers that make you faster. Plyometrics is just one of the ways that we train our students to strike with power and speed.
