AMERICAN KICKBOXING

Built from the Best. Rebuilt for Real Life.

Before MMA had a name…

Before Muay Thai went mainstream…There was American Kickboxing.

The original hybrid striking system was forged in the fire of the 70s and 80s Full Contact Karate wars: blending Karate precision, Boxing flow and Muay Thai’s raw power…before the world even knew what “mixed martial arts” was.

And now?

It has been rebuilt…not for fighters, but for people like you.

  • Working professionals
  • Parents under pressure
  • Former athletes craving their edge
  • People who are done feeling tired, slow, and unmotivated

Real People. Real Transformation.

Meet Tim

When Tim first came through our doors, he said what we hear all the time:

“I used to be in shape… but life happened. I don’t even know where to start anymore.”

Tim didn’t come here to fight. He came to reclaim himself.
Meet Savannah

When Savannah first joined, she felt intimidated by gyms and group classes.
She wasn’t sure she belonged.

Savannah has found more than a workout, she has found a space to reset, recharge, and reclaim her strength and confidence.
Muay Thai For Men

Forget the Gym. Forget the Grind.

Let’s be honest: most fitness routines feel like a chore.

You are busy.

You have got a career. A family. A calendar packed with everything but time for yourself.

The last thing you need is another lifeless hour on a treadmill…
or a group fitness class that feels more like a TikTok audition than real training.

You don’t need another workout. You need a wake-up call.

That is where American Kickboxing comes in.

Real Training for Real People

This isn’t about fighting in a cage.

It is not about flashy high kicks or brutal beatdowns.

It is about taking back control…of your body, your mind and your energy.

  • Every class is a reset.
  • Every strike clears the static.
  • Every round brings you back to that version of you who felt strong, confident and in command.

Why It Works (When Nothing Else Has)

American Kickboxing was always ahead of its time.
Today, it has been upgraded with modern sports science, smarter training and a deeper focus on what working adults actually need.

You will get:

  • Real striking: Boxing combos, Karate blitzes and Muay Thai knees…blended into a system that flows
  • Mental clarity: Every session dials you in and shuts the noise off
  • Functional strength: Built through smart conditioning, not endless reps
  • Efficient sessions: 45 minutes that leave you energized, not drained.

This is high-performance training designed to fit your real-world schedule.

This Isn’t Just Physical. It Is Mental Warfare.

Let’s talk about what no gym ad ever does….

You are tired.

Not just in your body…but in your brain.

You are pulled in a dozen directions, all the time.
You are stuck in meetings, drained by deadlines and maybe feeling like your spark’s gone dim.

You are not just looking to sweat.
You are looking to feel like yourself again.

American Kickboxing gives you:

  • Breath control under pressure
  • Mental resilience you take back into work, home, and life
  • Tactical focus that makes chaos feel manageable again
  • A place to reset, unload, and rebuild…without judgment
