Here is what actual students and parents
have to say about our fitness programs...
When I was first looking for a fitness program
I tried a couple of other clubs in our community. After being
tossed out of an aerobics class (I wasn't coordinated enough)
I decided to try one last time. It was then that I called
Martial Arts Planet. I started with UBfit™ Kickboxing
and loved it! The club has a great atmosphere and the program
allows each participant to go at his/her own level and pace.
Now I cross-train and participate in Muay Thai classes too,
enjoying as many programs as possible. So, thanks for tossing
me out of that aerobics class and right into the best decision
of my life: becoming a longtime student of Martial Arts Planet!
See you in class. Michelle L.
I would like to take this opportunity to state
my utmost pleasure with Martial Arts Planet and all of the
staff for their consistent dedication to achieving great and
positive results for all students.
I began taking Rebecca's Kickboxing classes in July 2002 and
have enjoyed a great variety of exercise classes. Rebecca
is a most dedicated professional and is an excellent facilitator.
Her expertise is recognized in each workout through her continued
interchanging exercise class formats as well as her pleasant
demeanor with all students.
It has been an incredibly positive experience for myself and
one of the best exercise classes I have been to. Thank you
so much. Michelle C.
Martial Arts Planet has been an excellent way
to get me motivated to do exercise. The classes are fun, and
the instructors are great! Jennifer A.
Incredible workout! I feel the energy and power
engulf my mind and body in every class. This is the best fitness
decision I've ever made. It surpasses all the rest. Connie

When I first joined the UBfit™ Kickboxing
classes I had only a vague idea of what it was all about.
Now six months later I have gained self-confidence, self-discipline
and the best total-body workout that no other cardio program
in the past has provided for me. Carolyn H.
Everyone knows that the ideal fitness program combines both aerobic conditioning and strength training. Our newest class, Strength PLUS™, is designed to give you that missing link. Based upon the super-effective TRX® Suspension Trainer, this new class will have you speeding towards your fitness goals!
Benefits of Suspension Training with the TRX:
TRX® Suspension Training® harnesses your own bodyweight to create resistance as you train. That's all you need - the TRX and your own body. No additional weights required.
We're all unique. Not only is each individual's body built a little differently, but we each fill our lives with a mix of physical activities that can require specific training. TRX Suspension Training allows you to instantly adjust not only the level of difficulty for each exercise, but you can easily customize any workout on the fly.
You can easily switch from exercise to exercise in less than 15 seconds. This allows you to maximize your training time and enables circuit style workouts.
Killer abs are great, but more importantly, having a strong core will prevent injuries, improve posture and increase overall strength. This is because all of our movements are powered by the torso - the abs and back work together to support the spine during everyday activities and exercise. Suspension Training builds core strength with every exercise by creating an element of instability that calls on your core to provide balance and coordination.
In real life, our bodies move to the side, backwards, forwards and diagonally. Shouldn't we train the same way? Unlike traditional weight training that tends to be linear and follow one plane of movement (sagittal), Suspension Training encourages multiplanar training (frontal, sagittal, transverse) which integrates all your motions and mimics real life movement. This will bring a muscular balance to your body, increasing performance and preventing injuries.

"I have been an avid weight lifter for the past 5 years. When I moved to Kingston for school I looked around at something off campus that I could get involved in that would offer me something different, fun, and most of all good for my health. I found all of these qualities at Martial Arts Planet. I enrolled about a year ago and continued on with classes at MAP and also weight training on campus. This past summer I suffered an AC joint dislocation (shoulder injury). Luckily for me this was around the same time that a new TRX training class became available at MAP. With this type of injury bench press, pec dec, dips, weighted flys and even squats are impossible to perform at the gym because of the pressure placed on the muscles and ligaments in my shoulder. Unlike isolated movements of a machine or the worry of injury from free weight presses the TRX allowed for a greater degree of control and the fluid motions have allowed me to strengthen my shoulder and upper body without the worry of re-injury. Now my shoulder is feeling about 95%, but the TRX classes are such a great full body workout that I would never go back to just weight lifting in the gym again." - B. Smith
"I truly enjoy and love participating in the Strength PLUS™ class. Since starting the class only a few weeks ago I already notice the change, everywhere. My upper body and lower body muscles feel stronger and leaner. My balance through my core has improved and even my stamina has elevated. With Rebecca as my coach, her patience, encouragement and professionalism keeps me motivated through class and excited for the next one. Thanks Rebecca!" - A. Lewis
Even professional fighters are using the TRX® as part of their
pre-fight conditioning!
