Ocala Karate and Fitness

Posts Tagged ‘Fitness Www’

  Well we are having an awesome Feb up here at Ocala Karate & Fitness.  www.ocalashinbukan.com  All of our members are training so hard and its such a good thing to see positive things happening for them.   I am seeing members every night now making such huge gains in their training.  Whether it be balance, strength, stamina, cardio conditioning, or just basic understanding of concepts, our members are really making some big steps.  And I couldn’t be happier. 

  All of our classes are filling up with smiling faces and it just really makes Jaime and I happy to see how much fun everyone is having at our school.  This is what teaching these classes are all about.  Seeing the rewards and advances that everyone is starting to make.  It doesn’t matter whether you are in Karate, Cardio, Weapons, or Self Defense; the positive things that are happening are happening everywhere. 

  We really want to thank ALL of our members too for speaking so highly of us through out the community.  Everywhere Jaime and I go now, everyone tells us that all they hear are good things about Ocala Karate & Fitness. 

  Next month our Karate members will get a chance to raise their heads up high and advance to their next rank.  March 12thwill be our next testing for advancement.  It looks like we are going to have a full testing to, with around 20 members testing.  For our members that attend on a regular basis, it takes about 3-4 months to advance between belts.  Having said that, its a really big deal when our members are ready.  Good luck to everyone that is testing.  I know you will do well.

   A special congrats to our Self Defense members too as we push into week 9 of the Self Defense class.  Everyone has done exceptionally well, and are going to really be amazed with themselves over the next 4 weeks as we begin to really crank that class up.  It’s going to be nice when they get to look back on their first week and remember how they struggled just to react to someone assaulting them, to now, the programed response system that has already been wired into them.  That’s what makes this class so unique.  It is highly effective, highly efficient, and very easy to learn.  WWW.ocalaselfdefense.com 

      Stop by and see for yourself why Ocala Karate & Fitness is quickly becoming Ocala’s go to place for all your Karate Fitness, and Self Defense needs.

Here we go everybody.

We’re wrapping up week #3 in the Self Defense class here at Ocala Karate & Fitness.  www.ocalashinbukan.com.   We’re happy to see that 4 more people joined the class this week and we all had a real good workout Tuesday night.  Tomorrow nights class is going to have everyone leaving with a smile too.  We are going to be working on some really fun drills that are not only really neat to practice, but will begin to develop our members timing and distance.

These are some of the most critical things any Self Defense class must get across to its members.  We have to know how to move, which way to move, and what to do AFTER we move.  And Ocala Karate and Fitness’s Self Defense Black Belt Program delivers exactly that.

Now I know that many of you might not think that you can do this stuff, but trust me when I say that its not hard to learn.  All of these drills have been designed for exactly that!  This is not a course for mixed martial arts or professional fighters.  This program has been designed for everyday 8-5 professionals that are looking to better themselves in many different ways.

Anyone can do this!

This Program is also a really good program to get your sons or daughters involved in before they go off to college.  At least they and you will be able to move away with the peace of mind that they have been professionally trained to defend themselves if need be.  Now what more could you ask for out of a Self Defense program?  www.ocalaselfdefense.com.  How about getting in shape too.

That’s right !  Not only will this Program have you feeling confident about yourself, but it will have you looking your best too.  That’s because all the drills we do in class are really HUGE calorie hogs.  So that means not only are you learning how to defend yourself, but your also getting in shape at the same time.  And if that’s not enough.  All of our Self Defense members have access to ALL the Cardio Classes as well.

So don’t keep putting this off.  Give yourself the ease of mind that you deserve.  Come down to Ocala Karate & Fitness and let us help you get into the best form of your life.

This place is awesome! !

  Holy smokes is all I can say right now.  Our Fighting Fit Cardio Circuit Kickboxing class is totally off the wire ! !  Tonight’s class was packed!  And with 4 new members joining Thursday we might have to cap the class off for the first time since opening!  This 50 minute fat smoker has everyone around town talking about Ocala Karate & Fitness.  www.ocalashinbukan.com  www.ocalakaratefitness.com

Getting Fit has never been easier

   Not only is everyone getting an AWESOME workout, but they are having a great time.  With the really good selection of music we have chosen to go along with the different workout routines, it makes the class so much more fun than your ordinary walk or run on the treadmill.  Plus, your toning and strengthening so many different muscles throughout your entire body.  You will notice things tightening up and getting definition within the first 30 days. 

  And then for the real die hards.   If that’s not enough stick around for the Self Defense class after that and not only learn REAL life saving skills, but get another workout on top of the Cardio.  Ever wonder why all those MMA guys are so ripped.  Show up for the Self Defense Black Belt Program only available here at Ocala Karate & Fitness and find out for yourself. 

  The drills and sets that we do in that class not only condition our bodies to where if we were ever to find ourselves in a really bad situation, not only would we mentally know what to do.  But we could physically back it up as well !!  www.ocalaselfdefense.com

   Just one more reason Ocala Karate & Fitness is proving to Ocala that we are one of the best Martial Arts and Fitness centers in the area.  If you want to some and find out for yourself, just contact us at 352-694-6304 and schedule your FREE class.  That’s right.  We’re so confident that you will make the right choice and join one of our many programs, that we will let you try any of them for free.  www.ocalashinbukan.com

  What a blast we all had tonight in the Self Defense class here at Ocala Karate & Fitness.  www.ocalaselfdefense.com.  Closing out week #2 in the new Street Self Defense class went really smooth.  All of our members are picking up the basic drills very easily, which proves that this New Self Defense Program really does WORK. 

   Having been designed to accommodate the every day person, this class takes this highly effective, yet easy to learn program and will have just about anyone, any make, any model, up on the feet and able to protect themselves in just a few short weeks.  This week we have been covering punching combinations ranging from jab/cross, jab/cross/hook, and cross/hook/cross.  Choke defense, standing up from the ground, and a few other really beneficial drills were touched on the surface.

    Remember that this is only week #2 so as the class moves on and builds, the material transitions from learning basic striking and counters, to full on assaults.  This program was built with progression in mind.  Are members will be utilizing their shin guards, and head gear in the next several weeks as push into more advanced, and REAL situation defense.

    When you talk about Self Defense we must remember that “nothing” is written in stone and “nothing” is 100%.  That’s why we have got to train are members to be able to defend themselves from just about any situation conceivable.  The only way to be prepared, is to be BEST prepared.  This class is a very fast paced workout too, with lots of striking combinations with our partners using focus mitts and other targets.  I tell all our members that one of the most important things ANY Self Defense Class can teach is how to REALLY be able to hit someone.  I mean let’s face it.  If you trying to learn Self Defense because you really want to be able to defend yourself, you had better be able to hit some one.  Otherwise you are really wasting your time.

How to hit, and how to hit HARD !!

  Ocala Karate & Fitness, www.ocalashinbukan.com  is Ocala’s Premier Self Defense School and our members are living proof of this.  Feel free to stop by anytime and watch, or if you would like to jump in and try a class out for FREE, you are more than welcome to.  What have you got to lose with an offer like that.  So give us a call at 352-694-6304 and ask for Robby or Jaime to get class times and any other information you might need.

                                 Until next week, everyone have a safe weekend and rest up for Tuesday.

              The class is ratcheted up again! !   www.ocalaselfdefense.com
