Five Star Martial Arts helps exercisers of all levels shape up and slim down with calorie-burning, fight-inspired classes. A highly trained instructor begins each cardio-kickboxing class with a 15-minute rhythmic cardio session to kick-start body engines and wake up sleeping blood pumpers. Students may then slip on a pair of boxing gloves to work with bags, tackle targets, and punch wave masters in the face, successfully expanding their fitness repertoire with a blend of karate, muay thai kickboxing, and aerobic moves. During the 45- to 60-minute classes, participants burn fat and build strength by working core and limb muscles, obviating the need for additional treadmill marathons or full-contact jumping jacks.
Brazilian jiu-jitsu aims to supplement students’ self-defense arsenals with techniques designed for swift escapes from both standing and ground-based exchanges. Although the sport gained popularity when it became the spar method of choice for the Ultimate Fighting Championship, jiu-jitsu challenges the everyday exerciser with an intense total-body workout. With continued jiu-jitsu training, students can zone in on the proper leverage required to unpin themselves from beneath a larger, stronger opponent or oblivious seated elephant. Check the studio’s schedule for both kickboxing and jiu-jitsu class times.

About Five Star Martial Arts
Awarded Best Martial Arts School in the Family Times' 2012 Besties Awards, Five Star Martial Arts teaches kids and parents alike the rapid-fire movements of martial arts. During youth programs, students aged 4 and older build stamina, dexterity, and intelligence through disciplined instruction at the hands of seasoned masters. Alongside typical belt rankings, badges and stars reward younger students as they master flurries of kicks and punches. Adult students find their own fitness rewards during cardio kickboxing, which blends an international potpourri of martial arts moves with calisthenic and aerobic foundations to form an explosive full-body workout that targets and tones major muscle groups across the body.
Trainers pair their fitness expertise with motivational attitudes, working one on one with students to help them on their path towards achieving personal wellness goals. Classes unfold within Five Star Martial Arts' recently expanded studio. There, new equipment and installations including a Tumbl Trak, a massive foam pit, and a collection of polyplus climbing ropes help trainers add complex gymnastics-inspired exercises to their already sizable arsenal of workouts.
