Kickbox Surge & Core Training with Amy Bento

Intense, very creative kickbox combos alternated with even-more-intense cardio “surges.” You get the interest and variety of “dancy” aerobics with the energy and power of kickboxing. Each of the five combinations is totally different. They all feature a fast-paced mix of innovative kickbox-style moves (e.g. “an in-the-air directional change with a switch kick and a jump”). The even faster-paced surges are also mostly airborne (e.g. ninja kicks and jump tucks). Throughout, Amy's amazing energy and perfect form are truly inspirational. Motivating dance hit music (e.g. “Whine -Up," "Don't Stop the Music” and “Do You Want a Piece of Me”). The ending core-focused floorwork uses a medicine ball. ©2009.

A new kickbox workout with 5 kickbox combos interspersed with 5 heart pumping 'surges'. The Surges are kickbox athletic style drill that give the workout even more of a challenge. A modifier will be provided for most of the higher impact moves and kickbox combos. The kickbox combos are filled with kicks and punches of varying tempos. Amy will cool you down properly before you refine your core. You will need a 6 to 8 pound medicine ball to properly train the muscles of the mid body resulting in a stronger and refined core. Finally, a stretch to restore your muscles for the next workout.
