Want to be fitter, stronger, and more confident? Then the Strassesgym is the place for you. Our kickboxing classes will help you to boost your self-defence skills, make new friends and greatly improve your general wellbeing.
Whether you’re completely new to martial arts and kickboxing, a black belt, or simply looking to brush up on your skills, you’ll be inspired to reach your goals in a safe, friendly environment.
You won’t find any intimidating gym machines to navigate; no big egos or attitudes to contend with. Just well-structured kickboxing classes from expert professionals who make sure that the emphasis is placed on learning while having fun.
The explosive, upbeat cardiovascular workout emphasis’s footwork, body mechanics, kicking and punching combinations and basic defensive and offensive techniques.
The focus is not to hit hard and “damage” other members of the class – aggressive behaviours is not welcome in our school.
However, it is to learn an art form, improve confidence and fitness – at the same time as having fun.
Strassegym’s Kickboxing has a competitive advantage in the fact that all of its instructors are fully qualified martial art instructors.
So the foundations of the classes rest securely on martial arts as opposed to aerobic qualifications.
However, the classes are much more relaxed than the more traditional martial arts schools.
Each student is free to progress at his or her own pace. There is not too much pressure on getting things absolutely “right” but we always encourage trying and improving individual performance.
The session will offer many practical techniques that may work in any number of different situations.
Our classes are interactive, giving you the opportunity not only to try out these techniques and gain confidence in using them, but also the ability to ask questions along the way and even ask to be shown a solution to a problem you may have faced.
We also hope to have some fun!
Our classes are neither violent nor aggressive and cater for all shapes and sizes and levels of fitness as the classes are not aerobically demanding every week.
Kickboxing Kids
Our Kids Kickboxing class is a no-nonsense practical self defense program that incorporates concepts and techniques from Kickboxing, Submission Grappling, Kapap, Senshido and Weapons training.
We teach kids to be leaders!
Self defence is a cornerstone of our training!
Protecting oneself is an important lifeskill that should not be undervalued. That is why we teach children how to defend themselves against the many things that kids face today such as bullies and negative peer pressure to take drugs and alcohol etc…
Our realistic class training will teach your child how to protect themselves, standing up or on the ground. We also teach them about conflict resolution and the appropriate times to use their skills.
The skills your child learns will last a lifetime!
When your kids train with us, you as a parent will see significant changes come about in your son or daughter:
They will have an increase in self-confidence, creating an “I am a winner attitude”.
They will learn a new found respect towards themselves and others.
They will become the leaders in their peer groups instead of the followers.
There will be an improvement in their grades and school work.
They will have an increase in self discipline, knowing to do what is expected of them all the time.
These positive changes develop characteristics to help your child not become involved with gangs, drugs, alcohol, or other detrimental habits.
They also give your child the strength to say “NO” to negative and harmful peer pressure.
This is the training for your child to improve coordination, confidence, body awareness, respect, and etiquette.
It enables children to have a true sense of personal growth and gives them the self defense skills to back him/her up so he/she doesn’t have to feel intimidated to stand up for what he/she believes.
