Aikido Aikido is a modern, non-aggressive Japanese martial art developed in the early part of the 20th century and is both a method of self-defense and a spiritual discipline. The essence of Aikido techniques are graceful spherical motions that can be used to re-direct an attackers energy. Aikido techniques use centripetal forces, leveraging of joints, and movement rather than brute strength and muscle power. Aikido promotes a high degree of cooperation between partners rather than competition. Some of the basic techniques that you will learn are ‘ukemi’ or ‘the Art of Falling’ and ‘nage waza’ a basic structured set of throws and controls. Physical strength is unimportant and therefore the art is open to both men and women of all ages and fitness levels. Code

Beginner Grappling Grappling has long since proved its value in combat sport arenas and should be considered a necessary aspect of self-defense training. This class will start building the student’s grappling foundation by teaching a core of techniques drawn from both Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Submission Wrestling. The course material will include joint locks, chokes and control positions as well techniques for getting opponents to the ground and how to fall properly. In addition we’ll be covering some basic stretching and exercise routines in order to enhance the student’s ability to perform the techniques being taught and to help keep our training safe. Classes will be tough but everyone is encouraged to workout at their own pace and ask questions whenever necessary. This class is best suited for those with little or no grappling experience; however, those with prior training who are looking for a review are more than welcome. I hope to see you on the mats. Code

Introduction to Muay Thai From the introduction of UFC and MMA to the general public, the ancient Thai art of Muay Thai or the ‘Science Of Eight Limbs’ has taken the world by storm. Muay Thai is a form of unarmed combat that trains the student in striking with fists, feet, knees and elbows and the art of clinching. You don’t have to be a Martial arts specialist or a fighting junkie to be trained in this class. This discipline also aids in weight loss and overall fitness training. Start your journey of Muay Thai in a safe atmosphere. Learn power punching, kicking, knee strikes from range and the clinch, footwork, defence, basic combinations, with intensive conditioning. Boxing gloves are mandatory and will be available from the instructor on the first day of class. Cost: $40.
