Nerf Battle Night!

12/3/2018

Nerf Battle Night is awesome!!!!

Kids bring in their arsenal, experience two hours of a nerf war free-for-all, eat pizza, and end with a team game. It might seem like a silly thing to do- but we do have reasons for hosting so many of these.

Kids don't have a ton of highly active, slightly rough, and fun activities. Not all kids play sports. Not all schools have a strong PE program. And not all kids enjoy playing outdoors during the winter- which in Rochester- is a long friggin time! ❄🌨❄⛄ Nerf War gets kids up and running, jumping, sprinting, and diving- and they love it!!!

If you missed the last one, make sure you come to our next one! No obligations to sign up, and it's open to all.

Saturday January 19th
5:30-7:30

Kids bring their guns (they just need to shoot the blue and orange darts)
Eye protection
$5

MMA Training

4/16/2018

I think almost everyone who watches UFC or even amateur MMA fights wonders what it would be like to train and fight like that.

Mixed martial arts training is excellent for those looking to get in shape and for people who want a dynamic workout experience. Finding a good MMA gym is essential for those looking to actually fight.

While we don’t have MMA Classes, we do have specific programs that you can train in and use for MMA. We also have fight training specific for MMA rules. Our kickboxing classes and Jiu Jitsu are perfect for fitness and actual fight training.

Positivity in Training

4/10/2018

I think it’s super important to surround yourself with positivity wherever you can. Work, friends, and certainly your gym / martial arts studio / dojo. We may not have much of a choice when it comes to who we work with, but your hobbies should be free of toxic people.

You should leave your gym feeling better than you did when you entered it. Granted, sometimes adversity happens. Like a move you practiced didn’t work. Or maybe your partner accidentally kicks you in the jaw. But overall, your gym should be a positive experience.

Are you you in the Rochester Cobbs Hill Park area? Come try a class and check us out! 🥋❤️🥊

Benefits of Working Out in the Martial Arts

4/2/2018

We all know working out is healthy for us in terms of physical health, but it is great for mental health as well.

Physical exercise helps relieve stress, which is extremely important when it comes to overall health. There are many different martial arts to choose from.

Of course Tai Chi vs MMA are crazy different. But that’s the beauty of it. There are martial arts for everyone at all Fitness levels.

Explore some of the martial art and MMA classes we have. At Rochester Phoenix Martial Arts we have Aikido, which is non competitive and low impact. We also have BJJ and Kickboxing, which are great for fitness and MMA style training.

Check us out! 18 Cobbs Hill Drive, Rochester NY 14610. Call or text 585-354-8946

Finding Health and Fitness in the Martial Arts

3/26/2018

In some ways Rochester has made it easy to stay fit. Almost every major suburb has a Planet Fitness or LA Fitness. These gyms offer flexibility with 24 hour fitness, as well as workout classes like Pilates.

However, I urge people looking to improve their health and fitness to also consider martial arts classes.

Almost every class will have cardio and strength training worked into it. Many people are surprised at how much exercise is involved. While you’re working out you’ll also be learning how to defend yourself. Martial arts also teach body awareness, flexibility, and perseverance.

Wondering how to lose weight? Instead of going to the gym stop in and try a kickboxing, BJJ, Judo, or Aikido class!

Come visit us. We’re located right by Cobbs Hill Park. 18 Cobbs Hill Drive, Rochester NY 14610. Shoot us a text at 585-354-8946

Looking for a Gym?

3/21/2018

Lots of people are looking for gyms and a way to workout. Staying fit, managing weight, and overall being healthy are so important.

But the gym isn’t for everyone. Doing the same exercise day after day gets boring fast.

Martial arts offer an engaging way to get lifetime fitness. Instead of going to the gym and hitting the treadmill or weight bench, try a martial arts class. You’ll learn new skills that are very useful and important. Such as self defense and stress management.

I’ve done both. Back when I was in my late teens I explored some gyms near me, but training in Karate at the time was so much more engaging. Thanks to Martial Arts I’ve been able to stay active and fit, I look forward to my workout each night.

Instead of the gym, try out a kickboxing, BJJ, Judo, or Aikido class! 💪🥋🔥
