Here are the reasons why Martial Arts is the best fitness program for adults:

• Develop habits to support a healthy lifestyle - Discipline, accountability, and regular fitness regime help create patterns for health that will extend into all areas of your life.
• Improve balance, coordination, and reflexes - The dynamic nature of martial arts training requires you to use multiple muscle groups rapidly to execute moves. It also works to make you aware of your body’s position and movement patterns enhancing balance and agility.
• Increase strength - The whole-body focus of martial arts increases core strength and exercises muscle structures weakened by prolonged sitting and inactivity. The use of all muscle groups in training improves tone and strength throughout your body.
• Boost aerobic and anaerobic conditioning - Martial arts offer some of the best cardio workouts improving heart health, endurance, and reducing stress hormones. Anaerobic fitness is optimized with the short, explosive movements inherent in martial arts. This improves muscle mass, strength, and the ability to withstand fatigue.
• Weight loss - Martial arts is an amazing program for weight loss. Burn calories, build muscle, and improve mindfulness; all very useful strategies when seeking weight loss. And the high-intensity, rapid-paced classes are more engaging than stationary bikes or treadmill workouts.
• Stress relief - In martial arts you get to kick, punch and scream, which is a great stress release no matter what your age. But, in addition, the ancient practices of martial arts have a calming effect that melts the stress away.
• Learn self-defence skills - Unlike any other form of exercise, with martial arts you learn potentially life-saving self-defence skills at the same time you are getting in shape.
