What does an average class look like?
This is subject to what coach you have for each class! However a general layout will be 10 minutes of warmup, 30 minutes of technique and 20 minutes of live sparring!
I'm unfit, can I still do this class?
We cater all of our classes to every skill & fitness level. From beginners to advanced practitioners, everybody trains together and gets progresses as a team. Our classes incorporate rest rounds and technique drilling as well as live sparring to ensure people have enough chance to catch their breath.
