Body Combat

Are you tired of just working out? Do you crave a fresh and exciting workout experience that stimulates your mind as well as your body and leaves you feeling invigorated and ready to take on life's challenges?

If so, then BODYCOMBAT ® is for you! BODYCOMBAT ® combines powerhouse moves and stances developed from a range of self-defence disciplines including Karate, kickboxing, Tai Chi and Tae Kwondo, in a “take no prisoners”, adrenaline-pumping routine. It is an empowering, athletic workout that will have you “fighting-fit” in record time! Are you tough enough to handle it?


Lasting an hour, each BODYCOMBAT ® class breaks down into 10 routines. First an upper body warm-up that teaches jabs, uppercuts and hooks, followed by an upper body power-training track that takes those moves and adds some oomph! The next two tracks do the same thing with the lower body, focusing on kicks to the side, back and front. Once you’re warmed-up, it’s combat time – deeply satisfying combinations of punches and kicks. Even the abs track sticks to the theme and the cool-down is something you need to experience to believe.


No. BODYCOMBAT ® has been specifically designed so that everyone can participate irrespective of their fitness background. There is no sparring or one-to-one contact in BODYCOMBAT ® so your safety is guaranteed. A comprehensive repertoire of blocks, strikes, kicks and punches are taught via a technique session, enabling you to maximise your workout and ultimately attain the results you want faster.


BODYCOMBAT ® is an exhilarating and inspirational workout. Its simple yet challenging pre-choreographed routines mean that all enthusiasts, irrespective of their age, sex and fitness ability can enjoy the workout and achieve success. You can control how hard you work by simply increasing or decreasing the range and acceleration of your movements. The synergy of group training and the energy created in each session motivates you to achieve an intensity and volume of work that you would never have believed possible. But be warned...once you have experienced BODYCOMBAT ® you’ll be hooked. Never again will you willingly miss your training session.


BODYCOMBAT ® is a complete all-body workout. The combination of arm and leg movements means that it tones and strengthens your whole body while burning calories more rapidly than you thought possible. In addition to improving your cardiovascular fitness you will also experience improvements in your coordination, muscle strength, posture, agility and flexibility.


Psychologically BODYCOMBAT ® has been designed to be an empowering workout. Regular participants claim significant improvements in their self-esteem, self-assurance and self-confidence. BODYCOMBAT ® is a great stress-buster. A big part of its magic is that people can throw off the confines of their everyday lives, shedding inhibitions and worries, with moves that include kicking, punching and shouting, coupled with controlled breathing techniques. BE WARNED! Once you have tried’ll be hooked!
