Nesta Muay Thai Fitness Trainer

This is not your typical “cardio kickboxing” class or “dance martial arts workout”.  This is hardcore, intense, effective, and a screaming good time! You get a realistic and challenging martial arts fitness program without the fluff or contact of fighting in either a 1 on 1 setting or small group training. If you are not yet familiar with Muay Thai, it’s the national sport of Thailand, and one of the most effective stand up fighting systems in the world. Practitioners of Muay Thai are incredibly fit and develop strong, athletic bodies. This system of martial arts uses powerful strikes with the hands, elbows, knees, and feet. This is why Muay Thai is known as “The Art of 8 Limbs.” 

Kickboxing Fitness Institute Kickboxing Fitness Trainer

This is not about the “Hollywood” style programs that are all sizzle and no substance, with people punching and kicking the wrong way. This is not "cardio" kickboxing. This is about real form and proper technique – but still about a varied workout that is fun and exciting. A great full body workout with the added benefit of learning self-defense techniques.
