Our new beginners courses run over a 6-week period. Consisting of 3 sessions a week (2 weekday and 1 Saturday), this is a total of 17 sessions. We advise students to try and make a minimum of 2 per week. Each week you will be introduced to new techniques following our structured and progressive system. At the end of the 6 weeks you will have the opportunity to grade for your first belt.

The traditional Tabata format consists of 20 seconds of 100% effort in a given exercise followed by 10 seconds of rest, this 30 second set is repeated 8 times before you take 1 minutes rest and move on to the next exercise. Tabata in this format normally consists of 4-6 exercises and aims at working both your cardiovascular endurance and strength. Tabata is typically a whole body work out.

In kickboxing it is important to wear clothing which allows you to move freely. We recommend loose fitting shorts or trousers, leggings with a t-shirt or vest top. We also have a fully matted gym, so you can train in socks or bare feet. We also have gloves you can use.

In your very first kickboxing class you will be guided through a structured class which will include the following elements. Mobilisation & warm up > breakdown and teaching of techniques > rounds of padwork with a partner > some strength & endurance drills > warm down & stretch. All students are encouraged to work at their own pace and all exercises can be adapted by our instructors to be made easier, harder or changed to accomodate for injury. You will be taught the fundamental techniques of kickboxing with additional instructors on hand to guide and assist you.

If you already have some martial arts experience you will need to contact us so we can discuss this with you in more detail and find the best class for you try. After trialling a class we will be able to better place you dependant on your level.
