Make an Impact

Combining kickboxing on the heavy bag with ground-and-pound work on the floor, our Mixed Martial Arts inspired class is for those that are ready to take things up a notch.

Fundamental to our MMA class design is utilizing a variety of different fight techniques to build your power, endurance, and resolve.

Our MMA class is 60 minutes but follows the same flow as the Boxing and Kickboxing class: a thoughtful progression of warm-up drills, shadowboxing, HIIT exercises, 3-minute rounds on the heavy bag and weighted MMA bag, and strength work.

Unlike the other classes, prepare to throw on some MMA gloves and explore some different movement patterns in this all-out strength and conditioning workout.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT IN A MMA CLASS

MMA_Warmup

Ramp-Up

 

Class starts with mobility drills, simple calisthenics, and shadowboxing before progressing into some HIIT: strength, speed pushes, and plyometrics.

 

MMA_Rounds

Bag Rounds & Active Recovery

 

The essence of the workout takes place during the series of 3-minute rounds on the heavy bag. You’ll develop your skills by honing in on the Weekly Boxing Focus and supporting Combo of the Day. You’ll build your fitness by pushing through speed and power shot burnouts. At the end of each bag round, you’ll enter some type of active recovery exercise to keep the heart rate up before the next bell rings: calisthenics, strength, or HIIT.

Core & Strength

 

For the final minutes of class, you’ll move into more traditional core and strength exercises designed to target, tone, and define your punching and kicking muscles.
