STICKBLITZ™: 30/45 MINS
StickBlitz™ incorporates the traditional strikes of predominately Muay Thai Kickboxing and Boxing, including a multitude of punches, elbows, knees and kicks utilising Filipino sticks. There are also additional Filipino close quarter stick strikes utilising the Punyo (butt end). Our differentiator being that we are holding one or both sticks, while executing all of the StickBlitz™ moves of upper/lower body combos. Our combos flow from one strike into another.
Even with experienced trainers, this becomes a new learned skill with all the added complexity of the stick and further compounded by striking with the butt/punyo of the stick, not with the hands/fists.
DOUBLE STICKS: 30/45 MINS
This program really hones in on improving your ambidexterity and hand-eye coordination, along with many other cognitive benefits! People experience the “Brain Buzz” when working out with sticks as the stick patterns are in a specific order of complexity to progressively apply cognitive load to the brain, which positively encourages brain adaption and increased neuro-plasticity over time.
Various footwork is also included which makes for a complete “Brain & Body” workout. We even include a metronome for varied rhythmic striking to the beat together. This program is unique in that it is the only tactile interaction with a partner in the fitness industry.
SINGLE STICK: 30/45 MINS
Single Stick is a fantastic way to learn how to coordinate both sides of your body evenly. Your dominant side will educate your non-preferred side as you continually switch over using both sides for striking patterns with footwork and mixed with working together with a partner. There is also body weight and conditioning exercises that involve passing the stick around with a partner. It’s a fun workout that exercises improving your cognitive and everyday life abilities.
GROUP STICK: 30/45 MINS
Group Stick is an awesome team building workout that really creates so much fun while interacting within a group and is like playing games, yet exercising both your brain and body via not only working both sides of your body with various stick striking patterns, but also switching directions, angles with footwork required to move around the different positions to keep the chain of group movement flowing. It makes exercising so much fun and quick while working out in-between others.

METRO STICK: 30/45 MINS
Working on your speed and timing by using a Metronome in practice will help to function at a higher pace with less conscious thought. This will greatly improve your sense of timing, speed, flow and accuracy of hitting the same targets continuously. This will also enhance your hand-eye coordination through subconscious learning.
BODYWEIGHT & CONDITIONING: 30/45 MINS
Conditioning Drills are compound movements: multi-joint, multi-muscle, with varying degrees of complexity, kinaesthetic and proprioceptive qualities, intensities, positioning and balance requirements.
