It's a good thing that inanimate objects don't register pain, because the blue floor mats at LifeStyle MMA have taken a serious beating. The students themselves are in good hands, thanks to instructors who create a non-threatening environment in which they teach disciplines such as Brazilian jiu-jitsu, judo, and taekwondo. Some classes, such as cardio kickboxing, use a combination of these fighting styles as a jumping-off point for fitness workouts. The diversity of disciplines is matched by the diversity of programs tailored to specific demographics. There are courses for kids, which build focus and self-confidence using the Bully Proof system, where youngsters learn non-violent self-defense techniques and improve listening skills, coordination, flexibility, character, teamwork, and responsibility. And a variety of adult classes focus on weight loss, and strength conditioning, and women's self-defense, and special programs for police officers.
