At Mushin we understand and appreciate the importance of working out, and we also understand the value of “a dollar”. Because of this, we have opted not to “break the bank” and made our classes very reasonably priced.
At Mushin we focus on the technical aspects of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, commonly referred to as BJJ, has proven itself to be one of the most effective martial arts. It uses grappling techniques to perform leverage based joint locks and chokes to incapacitate an opponent. One of the reasons that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has proven itself to be so effective is that its techniques are based on leverage principals and, thus, require little strength or athleticism to perform. This makes it possible for a smaller, weaker competitor to defeat a much larger, stronger opponent.
Mushin’s kickboxing program derives its technique from the art of Muay Thai. Muay Thai is a kickboxing style originating in Thailand. What separates Muay Thai from Western styles of kickboxing are its techniques using the elbows and the knees, both points of contact that are illegal in many other full contact striking styles. Because of this differentiation, Muay Thai is often referred to as “the science of eight limbs”. Muay Thai matches are steeped in tradition with fighters often wearing ceremonial garb and performing prefight dances called “Wai Khru Ram Muay”.
Our Mixed Martial Arts program is second to none. With only the most experienced instructors guiding our classes, our system facilitates every type of MMA fighter from the striker, to the ground and pound specialist, to the submission artist. The Mushin coaching staff have produced and worked with several UFC veterans. Our coaches’ knowledge is diverse and detailed enough to isolate the strengths and weaknesses of any fighter and to create an individualized, strategic program to carry that fighter to the next level in his or her training or career.
The Mushin fitness staff is highly trained, very knowledgeable, and always happy to answer any and all of the perplexing questions that often keep people from reaching their fitness goals. Our fitness classes are designed to be fun, so coming to the gym isn’t a chore. Our staff takes all the guess-work out of working out by designing goal oriented and challenging classes. Work outs vary daily to keep from getting monotonous and repetitive, and our top notch trainers include nutrition and athletic performance specialists to help those with diet questions or specific, targeted athletic goals.
