Fitness To Fit Your Life

In this 3-hour class, you will learn to build a non-combative related workout regimen -- for personal fitness, or for your school. The first part of the workshop will be looking at what sorts of movements and exercises are common among sword practitioners, and depending on your weapon of choice, what muscle groups tend be activated and how to strengthen them.  The second part of the class will explore basic fundamental movements and exercises. This will be followed by learning certain solo drills and forms with the Longsword, though the principles can be applied to all weapon-based martial arts. Then, prepare to get sweaty as we combine this all together! The class will end with a full 60-minute fitness class.
