NEW CLASS LEADERS
As we continue to grow at the academy, we will be bringing on more and more class leaders to help keep the classes fresh, fun and energetic. Two of our most recent class leaders in training are Kristin Crupi and Megan Olson. Both of these ladies bring a lot of energy and excitement to the Fitness Kickboxing program and we are happy to have them in training to become great class leaders. So you’ll be seeing them in many of your classes, so get ready to sweat, be pushed and have fun.
ARE YOU UP FOR A CHALLENGE?
This challenge is open to ALL current students as well as new participants who have never done any classes at the academy.
THE CHALLENGE:
For those of you who haven’t heard of this program before, it is an 8 week course that will get you in the best shape of your life! In this program you will combine the cardio of our Fitness Kickboxing classes with the strengthening, toning, and shaping of the Resistance Bands classes. The combination of these classes will give you a complete fitness program that will get you into AWESOME shape, fast! With the use of your own personal Bodyshaping notebook you’ll be able to track your progress as well as have access to pictures and descriptions of the exercises you’ll be doing weekly. And one of the great things about the resistance bands is that they allow you full range of motion, so that you can use and improve your skill level in some of the basic kickboxing/martial arts techniques.
In order to get the greatest benefits from the “Fit-Kick Body-shaping” course we recommended that you plan on coming to 3 Fitness Kickboxing classes and 2 resistance bands classes per week. We realize that this is a major commitment, but this is what it will take to see the most rapid development within this 8 week program. If you can’t commit to the class schedule/times that we have, we can set up a personalized program where you can do some of the routines at home. The key is that you combine the cardio with the strength training; so for example, it would be possible to set up running 1x week and doing the resistance bands at home if you can’t make a class. Everything you’ll need is in your personal notebook. All you need to do is bring the desire and effort.
Need some extra motivation?
Well, besides obtaining the prize of getting into awesome shape, we will be awarding $30 cash for every student that attends all of the classes that they have signed up for, without missing one class during this 8 week session. To be eligible for this prize you must sign up for at least 2 classes per week.
