K700 TEACHER TRAINING:

Fitness and Flexibility! The next step-



Check out the technique portion of the seminar (above) to see what we are visualizing when we put knees into our Kickboxing class choreography!

K700 is based on REAL fighting combinations- not "fluffy" dance combinations. (Although we do love to include Salsa too.) Learn REAL self defense and fighting technique with K700.

Thanks to Mr. Tommy Crouch who gave us some awesome training at WholyFit's Kickboxing Certification this weekend! Tommy Crouch is a 6th degree Black Belt in Chun Kuk Do, and is lead Karate teacher at the DOJO Experience in TX. Tommy is also a Certified WholyFit Instructor.

Thanks also to Carl Flores, DaMarkus Jones, and Ashlon Smith for all your encouragement and instruction!

Now that you've improved your fitness level through WholyFit Gentle Body Power, you may want to try K700 for a cardio workout. It's so fun; you'll forget you're burning off fat to the tune of 500-1000 calories per hour! (Caloric expenditure is an estimate only and depends on intensity and individual practitioner metabolic rates.) Burn off stress and anxiety as you learn to move with power and precision.

  •   K700 is multi-level and self paced!
  •   Low impact
  •   Easy to follow
  •   Non-contact (Shadowboxing only. You will not be asked to spar. You will not have
      to get in anyone else's "space".)

Level 1: repetitive drills performed at half speed, simple choreography, low kicks to knee level only

Level 2: "layers" are added to drills for more variation, performed to tempo, kicks raise to waste level after proper form is mastered

Level 3: for the advanced practitioner or athlete, variations other than low impact options are given


WORKSHOP PHILOSOPHY:

Respect: We respect other disciplines and certifications. We respect the prior experience of kickboxing instructors. We offer additional resources.

Excellence: Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. Purposefulness and organization in presentation is the goal.

Creativity: Creativity comes with confidence. My goal is to give instructors confidence in the basics so that making up choreography flows for them.

Authenticity: You will be able to teach actual fighting combinations that come directly from Martial arts /self defense

Safety: You will be able to teach the safest and most effective kickboxing class in the industry today

This certification will provide great insight and training. You are free to do whatever you want to with the information. It is not branded and there are no license fees.

(Disclaimer: Although the moves taught in this seminar are authentic martial arts techniques, true to form in the Chun Kuk Do style, there is no guarantee being expressed or implied by Laura Monica regarding their effectiveness in a street fighting or self defense situation and are intended for use in non-contact group exercise choreography only.)
