TKB- Turbo Kickboxing

WOW....WOW....WOW! Yeah I think that might describe it. lol! Yesterday was my turbo kick certification in Palm Springs. It went from 8-6 and it was definitely crazy! I thought it would be like my original certfication was, with a million people and mainly review for the day then physical stuff, I was wrong. There were 11 of us there, plus the instructor. I would subtract 3 hrs for breaks and sit down review. So we were on our feet kickboxing and learning the physical routine for 7 hrs! NUTS! It was so fun though! This style of kickboxing is designed to make the class feel like a party. It's very high energy and fun. They have up to date dance type music and they throw in some hip hop type moves every once in a while. It was intense and definitely my style class. The instructor was really fun and had us laughing the whole time. Our practical consisted of her making sure our form and technique was correct for each kick and punch. Then doing the "round" full out and checking our energy and our own personal style. Then we did a written exam with questions about the turbo kick company and class format, etc.

Turbo Kick pre designs all their classes. They call them rounds and to teach them you get a dvd of pre designed choreography, a cd of the music for that round, and choreography notes. With each class you can change up the choreography that you don't like or you can blend rounds, but you have to use turbo kick music in order to call your class turbo kick and you have to use the main format of their choreography. It's so fun and upbeat. I definitely felt like I was getting my butt kicked but the music pumped me up and it changes up alot since it's an anaerobic format so you keep moving and having fun! In each round there are 11 sections, by the 3rd your like I'm done, no more please! LOL! It was a crazy day and I am definitely going to look into teaching turbo kick soon!
