Kickboxing Basics for Tweens and Teens: An Ongoing Program

This class is designed for teens and tweens with no prior kickboxing experience needed. We'll do a quick round of introductions and set the class expectations and safety protocols. Students will not be expected to interact with each other, they will simply listen and follow the guidance and instruction of Rich. There will be a couple minutes at the end to answer any questions. All questions will be sent in chat privately, to allow anonymity we will not mention who is asking the question. This allows a sense of privacy and more confidence in the child asking the question.

*** Please note that transfer requests may not be considered if the request is made within 24 hours of the class start time.***

Please dress in active clothing including appropriate shoes such as runners.

Each class will begin with introductions, safety and rules, followed by a quick warm-up to stretch and loosen up the body to reduce the chance of injury.
