Service Description

Learning how to safely and effectively defend yourself is a life skill + tool every girl should be taught + equipped with at an early age! In this class, our girls will learn the basics of Kickboxing, Karate + Self Defense. As a Certified Kickboxing Instructor and Black Belt in karate, I have taken the best of what I have learned over the years and have developed a program that is fun, encouraging + empowering! The girls will learn proper form and technique on various technical skills like punching, kicking + self defense through heavy bag hitting + partner drills. They will build confidence + trust in their bodies through fitness and movement by developing a strong muscle-mind connection & realization of what their body's are fully capable of. They will learn how to properly defend themselves but most importantly, they will learn when it is appropriate to use these new skills. Along with technique and drills, the girls will also be taught proper form and technique on basic movements like the squat, lunge, hinge, push, pull + deadlift and we will incorporate these exercises into our workouts to build overall strength! Classes will also involve some team building exercises + play based games to make it fun + engaging! Note: EQUIPMENT NEEDED for this class.
