Fitness Kickboxing near Ivanhoe

Non-contact pad and bag workouts, about 2 km from Ivanhoe

A better workout than the treadmill

If the gym has started to feel like a chore, our Fitness Kickboxing classes are a short drive from Ivanhoe. In 45 minutes you’ll work through punching and kicking rounds on pads and heavy bags, add core and strength work, and finish feeling fitter and a lot calmer.

There’s no sparring and no contact. Our martial arts instructors teach you proper technique from day one, and every round can be scaled up or down to suit you.

Daytime kickboxing for Ivanhoe

Our 11:15am classes on Tuesday and Thursday suit people working from home, shift workers and parents with school-age kids. Evening sessions at 6:30pm fit after work, and Saturday has two late-morning classes. Book in and out on the members app as your week changes.

Inside a class

A typical session starts with skipping and footwork, moves into combinations on focus mitts and heavy bags (jabs, crosses, hooks, uppercuts, knees and roundhouse kicks), mixes in push-ups, planks and ab work, and ends with a stretch. It’s hard work, but you’ll be laughing by the end. Want variety? See boxing fitness and HIIT.

Ivanhoe locals who already exercise

Plenty of our Ivanhoe members already run around Wilson Reserve or swim at Ivanhoe Aquatic. They add kickboxing for the things those sports miss: upper body power, rotational core strength, quick feet and hand-eye coordination. Others are coming back to exercise after a long break and like that nobody is watching or judging. Either way, the instructor sets the pace for each person, so a marathoner and a beginner can share the same bag line comfortably.

Coming back after a break

If it’s been years since you exercised regularly, you’re in good company. Many Ivanhoe members start with one class a week, take plenty of water breaks and build from there. The coaches will suggest easier versions of any drill, and nobody minds if you need to sit out a round. Within a month or two most people are doing two or three classes a week and wondering why they waited so long.

The Kickboxing exercise classes are awesome. Great instructors. Pounding away on the high-quality punch/kick bags pushes my cardio fitness, tones my aging body, allows me to deal with the stresses of the day.

For the parents, we attend adult Kickboxing Fitness at the same time our son trains - so instead of being spectators, we are all training together.
