Ladies Self Defense & MMA Seminar by Coach Antonio Battistessa

Hola fit and sexy readers! KinabaluFighters gonna held a LADIES SELF-DEFENSE Seminar.

Do spread this news around especially those free on 4th & 5th August. Your girlfriends, mother, grandma, sisters, relatives, wife (wives, kof*), ex (yea if you're still cool with them), you yourself perhaps and any ladies you cared for.

Below is a long overdue post, as I had my first MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) seminar with Coach Antonio from Italy.

Using boxing gloves to "throw" at your partner. What's this for?

 In this seminar, I learn alot of practical things about MMA especially when it comes to real self-defense situations.

It actually makes you realize how accurate and strength you put in your punches.

The take down.

In white rash guard is Azrin, the assistant of the day.

 Antonio taught ways on how to take down on a bigger guy, even with this petite frame and lower strength.

Ground and pound

Serious stuff.

I have to admit it was awkward at first when I did my first ground training with AJ Pyro and BorneoTribalSquad during an MMA training earlier this year.

Then, I became fascinated after trying out CrazyMonkeyDefense and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu at Studio23 by Albert and Reuben.

Yep, alot of body contacts. But I'm glad our gym is clean everyone trains hard and seriously. Like, seriously.

Ladies, as for the seminar - fret not. I'll be there assisting Antonio as a demo "dummy" so even there's extra participant I can fill in the odd numbers as well =)

So if you're interested in the gym or existing member who wants to extend your membership, you know the drill.

PUSH Fitness Class is BACK! Now at Kinabalu Fighters!

  After a few months of on and off classes, am SO GLAD to have PUSH class up and running again!

Thanks Leanna photography and team. Skin looks so smooth here lulz.

 I never thought (or maybe subconsciously I did. Thank you, Jna's thoughts, muaks muaks muaks.) that PUSH would have expand in collaboration with Kinabalu Fighters Martial Art & Fitness (Kinabalu Fighters Club, then, fight club that I train Muay Thai with).

Besides PUSH Classes, also will teaching Ladies Kickboxing, Kids Muay Thai and Relief & Recovery Stretch. All officially up and running by next week!

Ladies, what are you waiting for? No guys, no worries on touchy touchy!

Flex. Don't just cardio and/or bodybuilding.

We also offer private training 1:1 or group. If you like me to train, I'm free to do so on weekdays in between my classes i.e 1pm - 5pm.

Weight lost, shape up, low impact, muay thai basics and also lifestyle motivation

Oh, and I might introduce pilates class since I had my first pilates workshop with Yuen at Borneo Fitness Academy.

Thank you, almighty God. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Kinabalu Fighters! Thank you, Julian! Thank you, Fara. And Thank you, Nex. Thank you, Borneo Combat Gym. Thank you, coach Alvin. Thank you, coach Randall. Thank you, awesome mummy (she's so supportive, I LOVE HER)! So grateful that these are my awesome partners now. Its all happening!

 I'd also like to thank Cruz Fitness & Fight Studio (especially miss positive Faye and the fitness junkie bunch) for being the first pioneer to have PUSH class and also Core Fitness (awesome bunch of ex-colleagues) the opportunity to learn and experience personal trainer.
