Why you should join a Women Only Kickboxing class in Birmingham
Importance of physical activity
Physical activity is known to bring about health benefits with substantial evidence that vigorous activity has many more benefits than a moderate activity such as walking would (1). According to the NHS, martial arts (combat sports) are classed as a form of vigorous exercise (2).
Benefits of kickboxing for Women
Kickboxing is a combat sport and has many forms such as Muay Thai and American kickboxing. Training regularly in kickboxing develops long-term physical fitness (3) as well as hand-eye coordination, focus, confidence and self-control.
More women join this martial art due to its many benefits including:
Self defence
Learning kickboxing will equip you with the tools necessary to defend yourself. Confidence, fitness, and new skills are only some of the tools you will gain. You’ll also develop an understanding of when and how to use these techniques to help you escape dangerous situations.
Social aspect
Learning and sweating in a group setting- whether we are distancing or close contact- will allow you to create friends in an ‘all in this together’ friendly environment. You’ll hold each other accountable, giving you that extra push to show up and smash the sessions together!
Discipline
Being present in sessions will allow you to grow as a person and instill confidence and discipline even outside the sessions in your day-to-day life. Developing a stronger mindset will allow you to achieve your goals better.
Are you more comfortable in a female-only environment?
For whatever reason, you feel more comfortable in a women only environment but you can’t find one in your area. We’ve got you covered! Running classes on different days at various times in multiple locations across Birmingham.
So, whether you’re a total beginner or advanced at Kickboxing, you will get the right amount of work and learning!
You find a class but it has a male instructor!!
You’ve just found a class and at the bottom of the page, you’ll see a male instructors name and picture! So much for Women only…
At Safari MMA, we strive to provide a safe learning environment where the male gaze has no place. The hall/gym will be closed off for women only for the hour.
Of course, our instructors are fully qualified kickboxing instructors, first aid trained and DBS checked.
Classes are suited to all levels!
So if you want to get fit and learn self-defence skills, head on over to the Safari MMA website for details on how to book your first ladies-only kickboxing session.
