At ATA Martial Arts, students gain self-defense skills while losing weight. In cardio-kickboxing classes, men and women shed extra pounds as they vacillate between kicks and punches, and krav maga builds upon adults' natural defensive instincts in a way that also exercises the entire body. Youngsters can also learn important life skills in the kids' martial-arts program, which not only teaches self-defense, but also hones discipline and self-esteem in its pupils.
