NO. There is no contact or partner training in TNT Kick Fit. The class is for everyone who wants to experience the benefits of training like a martial artist without contact.

No. TNT Kick Fit is based on the highly effective training methods used by Martial Arts athletes. While we do incorporate kicking, punching and striking techniques into each class, making the class "martial arts based", there is no memorization of forms, no belt testings, no contact with other students, and no uniform required.

Yes, unlike an aerobic class or other fitness classes, where an instructor is leading a group of people through various exercises at a certain pace, TNT Kick Fit is broken up into 5 minute rounds that are made up of timed segments within those rounds. An individual can push themselves at their own pace for each exercise. Even if you have never worked out before, you can start slowly and still experience all the benefits of a total body workout.

No. While the format of the class remains the same (50 second rounds for each exercise) the exercises themselves will vary from class to class so that participants never become bored. As an added benefit of changing up the exercises, muscles get worked a little differently each week.

Absolutely! As a martial artist, you will be practicing kicking, punching and striking techniques which improves your muscle memory for those skills. In addition, the cardiovascular benefits and increased strength and flexibility you will gain from TNT Kick Fit will certainly improve your martial arts training or any other sports you may be involved in.

TNT Kick Fit is designed to get maximum results in a short amount of time. The evening class is 30 minutes and the morning class is approx. 45 minutes which allows busy participants to complete a great workout with a minimum time commitment.

Patty Troia teaches the evening TNT Kick Fit classes at TNT. Lisa Nowicki, a TNT Black Belt and long time Karate student, teaches the morning classes.
