Class Descriptions

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ)
This combat sport emphasizes groundfighting techniques and submission holds involving joint-locks and chokeholds. By using leverage and body positioning rather than strength, it allows a smaller opponent to control a larger opponent. Classes begin with warm-up and drills, followed by instructional techniques and rolling with partners. We train both gi (wearing the traditional gi/kimono) and nogi (submission grappling). We are affiliated with black belt Jorge Gurgel, who visits our school several times a year to give seminars.

Advanced Mixed Martial Arts (MMA)
This class combines submission grappling and standup techniques to prepare you for MMA competition. Class begins with intense conditioning drills, followed by instructional techniques in boxing, kickboxing, and grappling. This class is great for anyone wishing to compete in MMA, learn self-defense skills, or just plain get in great shape. Our MMA classes are taught by UFC, AFC, and Euphoria veteran coaches.

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Fundamentals
This class focuses strictly on MMA techniques, without the intense conditioning and sparring that we do in the regular MMA classes. Great for beginners, or those just wanting to brush up on their technique.

Muay Thai Kickboxing
This traditional martial art from Thailand utilizes strikes using the hands, shins, elbows, and knees. This stand-up style is an especially versatile and straight forward martial art.

Body Music
A high intensity, low impact class designed for all levels of fitness. Feel the energy as you dance your way to a new you, connecting with the athlete within. This style of aerobics is inspired by modern club dancing, retro-aerobics, and the fighting arts.

Boot Camp
An intense mixture of plyometrics, functional strength training, and cardio conditioning. Guaranteed to get you in shape for anything!

Vinyasa Flow Yoga
Dynamic breath, energizing music, and creative yoga sequences make this class not only fun, but also a great way to explore our own life force energy and cultivate inner and outer strength and fluidity. Advanced.

Ashtanga Yoga
Strength, stamina, and sweat are unique aspects of this traditional yoga, seemingly contrary to most Western perceptions of yoga. Breath synchronized with a progressive series of postures and movement cleanse, strengthen and stretch the body as well as calm and focus the mind. All levels are welcome for the primary series class. Instructor permission required for the mixed level class.

Crunch Time
An intense 30 minute class of conditioning exercises targeting the abdominals and lower back. A great way to strengthen and tone your core, and enhance your sports performance.
