Brief description of each of our disciplines

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art and combat sport that emphasizes ground fighting techniques and submissions. Developed in Brazil in the early 20th century, BJJ is a form of grappling that focuses on leverage, body positioning, and technique rather than strength and size. Practitioners seek to control their opponents through various holds, locks, and chokes, ultimately forcing them to submit. BJJ has become increasingly popular around the world as both a competitive sport and a self-defense system, and it is often used by mixed martial arts (MMA) fighters.

Women's only Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is simply the practice of BJJ by female practitioners. BJJ is a martial art that is open to anyone regardless of gender, and women have been practicing BJJ for decades. However, due to the male-dominated history of combat sports, women's BJJ has only gained widespread recognition in recent years. Women's BJJ classes often focus on the unique challenges that female practitioners may face, such as strength differences and self-defense situations. Many female BJJ practitioners find the sport to be empowering and a great way to build confidence and fitness while learning self-defense skills. Women's BJJ competitions are also becoming more common, providing female practitioners with opportunities to compete and showcase their skills. 

Muay Thai, also known as Thai Boxing, is a martial art and combat sport that originated in Thailand. It is a striking-based art that uses a combination of punches, kicks, elbow strikes, and knee strikes, as well as clinching techniques to control and strike the opponent. Muay Thai is known for its effective use of the entire body in striking, with kicks and knees being particularly devastating. Practitioners of Muay Thai develop a high level of fitness, strength, and endurance, as well as the ability to defend themselves in a stand-up fight. Muay Thai has become increasingly popular around the world as a combat sport, with many athletes competing in professional events. It is also commonly used in mixed martial arts (MMA) competitions as a striking discipline.

Kickboxing is a martial art and combat sport that combines elements of boxing, and Muay Thai. It is a striking-based discipline that uses punches, kicks, knee strikes, and sometimes elbow strikes to defeat an opponent. Kickboxing can be practiced both as a contact sport with opponents or as a fitness activity in a non-contact form. The techniques in kickboxing are usually delivered from a standing position and require a lot of agility and coordination. Kickboxing has gained popularity worldwide, with many countries having their own national and international competitions. It is also commonly used in mixed martial arts (MMA) competitions as a striking discipline. Overall, kickboxing is an effective way to build fitness, strength, and self-defense skills.

A boxing class is typically a fitness class that incorporates the techniques and training methods of boxing. These classes are tailored to suit individuals of all skill and fitness levels. During a typical boxing class, participants may perform various exercises such as shadow boxing, punching bags, speed bags, jump rope, and bodyweight exercises, to improve their boxing technique, agility, and endurance. Participants may also work in pairs or groups to practice their punching combinations and defensive moves with focus pads or partner drills. The class may end with a cool-down and stretching session to prevent injuries and aid recovery. Boxing classes are an effective way to improve cardiovascular fitness, strength, and coordination, while also learning self-defense skills and having fun.

Our Mini Ninjas class is a specially designed program for young children aged between 3 and  years old. These classes aim to introduce children to basic martial arts concepts, improve their motor skills, and develop their social skills. The classes are led by experienced instructors who are trained to work with young children. The curriculum may include simple exercises and games to develop balance, coordination, and strength, as well as basic martial arts techniques such as kicks, punches, and blocks. Toddlers will also learn basic etiquette, such as following instructions, respecting others, and being patient. The classes are often interactive and engaging, using fun themes and activities to keep toddlers interested and motivated. Overall, toddler martial arts classes are an excellent way for young children to start developing a love for martial arts, while also building valuable life skills.
