What to expect at the Nomad Kickboxing Class
Each kickboxing class begins with a warm up specifically designed for kickboxing, focusing on movement and stretches to help you progress quickly. Each day you will be taught a series of well explained techniques that will help you and your partner build your striking game. Focus mitts and thai pads are regularly used to hone your technique while working on delivering powerful power strikes. Each class ends with the option to do controlled sparring or conditioning exercises specific to kickboxing.
Our goal is to both show you the art of striking AND provide you with the means to get in shape for kickboxing!
What is Nomad Kickboxing?
Kickboxing is the most effective striking martial art in the world today. Nomad Kickboxing focuses mainly on Muay Thai and Boxing technique combined to make the most effective & efficient use of your upper and lower body.
You will learn to strike using legs, knees, elbows and hands as well as proper footwork and body positioning to be able to protect yourself while creating the best opportunity to deliver these eight devastating weapons.
In addition, Nomad Kickboxing focuses also on a standing close combat situation, which controls the opponent’s upper body and gives you the opportunity to deliver strikes from a variety of angles and positions.
Kickboxing is great for both men and women whether you are looking for fun, cardio, fitness or self defence. For the student that wants the extra challenge, competitive opportunities are also available.
