Question & Answer

 

Is it safe to train

Yes its perfectly safe to train at 5 Elements Martial Arts. The Kickercise is a carefully controlled fitness environment based on our years of experience. All training is taken on our special padded floor to ensure maximum safety and protection to the joints of the body.

What should I wear

You may wear any suitable fitness style clothing. The majority of our class wear jogging trousers and T-shirt

How do I pay

The classes are paid for monthly by Direct Debit to make it easy for everyone. This is done through NEST who have a reputation as one of the finest fitness based billing companies.

Monthly billing also has the advantage of encouraging you to train. Its easy in the winter to look out the window, see the rain and think that if I miss the class I can always go next time. Unfortunately this can lead to all of us giving into the temptation of sitting in watching TV rather than getting the buzz from some physical exercise that our bodies and waistlines are crying out for. When you pay on the door its even easier to think up excuses for yourself to stay in and become a couch potato.

I am not sure if I should come on my own

We recognize that it can be intimidating for some people to take that first step through the door especially if people are completely new to the marital arts or you have had a bad experience at another school in the past. We make sure that all potential students are made welcome. We offer the first 2 lessons free of charge with absolutely no commitment so that you can make sure that you are happy with both our teaching style and the atmosphere of the school before joining. We always make sure that new students are taught the basic techniques and what to do when on a 1 to 1 basis with one of the instructors or staff to ensure that no one is left not knowing what to do and feeling awkward.

Do I have to be fit to come to the classes

Absolutely not. The classes will build the fitness you require to train and lead a healthy successful life.

Do you have any ladies training

The Kickercise classes are strictly ladies only

I am overweight and conscious of my body will I be embarrassed.

Most certainly not. We are here to help everyone achieve their full potential, avoid bullying and ensure a friendly safe training atmosphere for all our students. We never single students out and the instructors duty at all times is to ensure all their students are welcome and progressing at their own individual pace.

What if I want to talk privately to one of the instructors

Our office is available for this purpose and you are always welcome to request a private meeting either for yourself as a student, as a parent, or for your child directly with Sifu Tony Willis head of 5 Elements Martial Arts. Although the office is private once the door is closed, it has a window onto the training area to ensure compliance with our child protection policy.
