From the reviews

Master Cat & Liz are amazing! My husband and i extremely enjoy their weekly classes and private lessons during the weekend. We try our best to make it to their weekly classes but since we commute from Clarksville, Cat & Liz were willing to do some weekend classes for us.

★★★★★ — Julie, Oct 2015

The instructors are incredible, both in terms of their martial arts skills, their ability to teach, and their holistic loving view on life. I've been practicing Jeet Kune Do and Filipino Martial Arts there for about half a year and it has been a challenging but very positive experience.

★★★★★ — George, Dec 2019

Their tae kwon do classes have been extremely helpful for our son to be more disciplined and focused. The instructors are great at demanding respect while making it fun.

★★★★★ — Mike, Jan 2016

I studied under Master Wieczerza for over 17 years. She is gifted both as a martial artist, and as an instructor. Master Wiz is compassionate, and yet she is able to push students to their maximum potential.

Your first kickboxing class at KSA Martial Academy

Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
